All submissions will be handled electronically via the conference's CMT Website. Full Papers are limited to a maximum of 8 pages including references and appendices. Short papers must be a maximum of 4 pages including references and appendices. All submissions are subject to a double-blind review and therefore should not contain author names, affiliations, or links/references that would identify the authors or their affiliation.

Note: Typically, short papers will be considered for poster sessions and full papers will be considered for oral sessions.

Templates and Poster Guidance:

Templates

• IMVIP Latex Template Zip: Latex Template

• IMVIP Word Template: MS Word Templates

All submissions for review are subject to a double-blind review and therefore should not contain author names, affiliations, or links/references that would identify the authors or their affiliation. The camera-ready version of the paper should contain all author and affiliation details.

Papers that are not adequately anonymized, do not use the template, or have more than eight pages may not be considered for review.

After the paper submission deadline, the list of authors will be considered final. After that date, new authors cannot be added, and authors cannot be removed.

The submission should be as a single pdf file.

Paper lengths

Submitted papers shall be:

• Full-length papers (limited to a maximum of 8 pages including references and appendices)

• Short papers (limited to a maximum of 4 pages including references and appendices)

Poster Guidance

• Posters should be size A0 and portrait orientation.

Special Sessions:

Several special session workshops and tutorials will be organised alongside the main conference. You may elect to submit a paper to a special session with a particular topic (see instructions below).  In the case that a particular special session does not run, your paper will be integrated into the main conference as either a talk or a poster.

Creating a paper submission:

(a) Click the “+ Create new submission” button in the upper-left to create a new submission. There, you will be prompted to enter the title, abstract, authors, and subject areas. It is recommended to select at least one primary subject area and two secondary subject areas. You should finalize the author list by the paper submission deadline.

(b) Check with your co-authors to make sure that: you add them with their correct CMT email account. If you add an author with an email that is not in CMT and the name and organization are not automatically filled, that means they are not yet in the system, and you should make sure to check that they do not already have an account under a different email before completing the requested information to add them.

(c) Enter subject (topic) areas for your paper. You must include at least one primary area. This information is used to help assign ACs and reviewers. 

Special sessions: 

If you are interested in submitting your paper to a special session, please select the specific Special Session name you are interested in the "additional questions" part of the submission:

Select "None of the above" to submit to the main conference.

Conference Attendance:

At least one author from every paper must register for the conference and attend to present the work (either as an oral presentation or poster). Any no-shows will result in a withdrawal of the paper from the proceedings.

If you have submitted to a special session, at least one author must attend the special session to present the paper.
