Papers

Papers should be high quality, unpublished, original work related to a theme of the conference. Please consider submitting a paper which fits into one of the submission categories.

Submissions must be full papers, limited to five pages. Note that reviewers will assume they are reviewing completed works, as they will eventually appear in the conference proceedings. Do not submit incomplete drafts. After anonymous reviewing, accepted papers must be presented at the conference by a subset of the authors. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. A condition of this publication is an author signed ACM copyright release form.

The official language of the conference is English. Submissions should use clear, ordinary grammar and avoid the use of colloquialisms that might be difficult for those who speak English as a second language.

How to prepare your paper

Authors must submit two versions of their paper: a publication version (with author/institution information), and an anonymous version with ALL references to the authors removed (including author's names and affiliation plus identifying information within the body of the paper such as websites or related publications). The publication version is available for use by the Program Committee and the anonymous version is used in the reviewing process.

Both versions are limited to a maximum of 5 pages and must adhere to the ITiCSE 2007 Format Instructions.

How to categorize your paper

Note that there are several ways you must categorize your paper submission.
Within the paper itself, you must provide Category and Subject Descriptors, General Terms, and Keywords. These requirements are described in more detail in the ITiCSE 2007 Format Instructions.
When you submit your paper you also must categorize it for our database. The categories you choose are used to select the reviewers who will evaluate your paper. Please be sure to choose only the one or two categories that best fit your paper. Selecting too many categories increases the likelihood that your submission will be given to a reviewer who is unfamiliar with the content.

How to submit your paper

All submissions must be made electronically using the link below, which requires Netscape or Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher.

  1. Write your paper using the format specified above. Make sure that you have two versions of the paper, an anonymous version and a publication version.
  2. Convert your paper into ADOBE PDF format. Refer to our Preparing PDF Documents page for assistance.
  3. Submit both versions using the online Paper Submission Form. Please do not wait until the last minute to submit your documents because that is when everyone else will be connecting to our server!
  4. Make note of the paper ID number and password assigned to your submission. You will receive an e-mail message confirmation.
  5. After receiving confirmation, go to the Author Verification Form to review your submission for accuracy. Contact the program co-chairs (contact details below) if there are any problems.
    Warning! Several authors have reported problems viewing their PDF files using Internet Explorer. If you experience similar problems, it is best to download the file and use Acrobat Reader directly.
