*** Submission Instructions ***
Authors of manuscripts that meet the above criteria are invited to submit a proposal in one file directly to the conference submission site (
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rcis2024), track “RCIS 2024 Journal First”, consisting of:
Journal paper title
Authors of the journal paper
Original Abstract of the journal paper
A pointer (DOI) to the original journal paper
An acknowledgment that the journal paper meets the above-mentioned criteria
A pre-print of the journal paper
The journal-first manuscripts are published through the journals and will not be part of the RCIS 2024 proceedings. The journal-first papers will be listed in the conference program and RCIS 2024 participants will have access to the paper abstracts and a pointer to the journal publication outside the conference proceedings.
*** Evaluation ***
Since all papers have already been reviewed and accepted by the journals, they will not be reviewed again for technical content. The committee will review the presentation proposal based on the eligibility for journal-first (the above criteria), and the justification why it is relevant and interesting to conference attendees. If we receive more proposals for eligible talks than the conference schedule allows, we will prioritise the proposals to fit the conference themes and structure of the sessions. There is no guarantee of acceptance even if all criteria above are fulfilled. Authors will not receive any technical reviews with the notification.
