All paper and short paper submissions are subject to a double blind reviewing process. Only accepted AND presented papers will appear in the proceedings if they have been uploaded before the deadlines. The conference proceedings will be published with Springer in the series Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems.
The books of this series are indexed by SCOPUS, INSPEC, WTI Frankfurt eG, zbMATH, and SCImago. All books published in the series are submitted for consideration in Web of Science. However, the conference organizers don't have any influence on that – in case of questions about indexing please address directly to Springer.
This proceedings volume is published, in parallel to the printed books, in full-text electronic version in Springer's digital library SpringerLink.
Springer strongly recommends that all paper authors include their affiliation and e-mail address in their manuscript. Their e-mail addresses (also published in the chapters) will be used by SpringerNature to provide authors with a personal MySpringer account where they can download a free copy of the eBook. In addition, all authors will be offered a 40% discount on any eBook or print book order from Springer's web shop. Both the free eBook and the author discount will be activated on MySpringer.
The copyrights of the papers are transferred to Springer.
Authors are expected to attend the conference in person to present their papers and share their ideas. If a paper is included in the proceedings distributed on site and is later identified as a non-presented paper, it will not be sent to and published by Springer. However, you are free to submit it to another conference or journal.
