Call for Late-Breaking Results
** IMPORTANT NOTE **
Due to concerns about COVID-19, RecSys 2020 will cancel its physical component and go fully virtual. To support authors through these stressful times, deadlines are extended.
The Late-Breaking Results (LBR) track of RecSys offers an opportunity for presenting new, preliminary results and speculative or innovative work in progress, having the topics of interest of the regular call for papers as a main reference. Accepted contributions for this track will be presented as posters, where the informal setting encourages presenters and participants to engage in lively discussions about the presented work. All submissions should convey a scientific result or work in progress that is not yet ready to be published as a full-length research paper at a refereed conference, but the preliminary results are already interesting.
Accepted submissions will be published in the conference proceedings. Authors will also be required to present a poster of their work at the conference.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
All submissions and reviews will be handled electronically. LBR contributions must be submitted to PCS by 23:59, AoE (Anywhere on Earth) on July 27th, 2020. There will be no extensions to the submission deadline.
Formatting. ACM is changing the archive format of its publications to separate content from presentation in the new Digital Library, enhance accessibility, and improve the flexibility and resiliency of our publications. Following the new ACM publication workflow, all authors should submit manuscripts for review in a single-column format. The maximum length for late-breaking results submissions is 7 pages (excluding references) in the new single-column format. Instructions for Word and LaTeX authors are given below:
* Microsoft Word: Write your submission using the Submission Template (Review Submission Format). Follow the embedded instructions to apply the paragraph styles to your various text elements. The text is in single-column format at this stage and no additional formatting is required at this point.
* LaTeX: Please use the latest version of the Master Article Template - LaTeX to create your submission. You must use the "manuscript" option with the \documentclass[manuscript]{acmart} command to generate the output in a single-column format which is required for review. Please see the LaTeX documentation and ACM's LaTeX best practices guide for further instructions. To ensure 100% compatibility with The ACM Publishing System (TAPS), please restrict the use of packages to the whitelist of approved LaTeX packages.
Authors are strongly encouraged to provide "alt text" (alternative text) for floats (images, tables, etc.) in their content so that readers with disabilities can be given descriptive information for these floats that are important to the work. The descriptive text will be displayed in place of a float if the float cannot be loaded. This benefits the author as well as it broadens the reader base for the author's work. Moreover, the alt text provides in-depth float descriptions to search engine crawlers, which helps to properly index these floats.
Should you have any questions or issues going through the instructions above, please contact support at [log in to unmask] for both LaTeX and Microsoft Word inquiries.
Anonymity. All submissions will be double-blind and peer reviewed. This means that submissions must not include information identifying the authors or their organization. Specifically, do not include the authors' names and affiliations, and anonymize self-citations, acknowledgments, and funding sources.
Originality. Late-breaking results must not be under review in any other conference at the time of submission and must contain novel contributions.
