Call for Papers for Scientific Conferences

Call for Papers for Scientific Conferences

Call for Papers (also commonly popular as CFP) in scientific conferences is an announcement done by technology (tech) conferences inviting researchers (usually postgraduates or professional scholars - lecturers, professors) to submit original, scholarly articles for review and consideration for publication. Papers in scientific conferences unlike conferences in many other disciplines are peer reviewed. Papers in scientific conferences / tech conferences are typically 10 pages long and are published in the proceedings of the conference which are widely cited.

Scientific Conferences are usually organized either by a scientific society or by a group of researchers with a common interest. Larger meetings may be handled on behalf of the scientific society or by a Professional Conference Organiser (PCO).

When conference organizers decide to get together and put on a conference, they will put out a call for papers, asking people to apply to present their research. Since there are usually many more potential presenters than there are spots, only the best papers are selected.

Websites which Aggregates Call for Papers for Tech Conferences

There are several good ones that are active now:

·         CFP Land : Sends out a weekly newsletter of Call for Papers closing soon and Tweets them about a month before they’re due.

·         Confs.tech : Open source, shows both conferences coming soon as well as Callfor Papers. They also have an email newsletter.

·         CallingAllPapers : Open source aggregator that grabs conferences from several sources. They also have a free API.

Basic format for Call for papers for Scientific Conferences:

The perfect call for papers contains:

1. About the Conference

Call for papers clearly state what the conference is all about and who is organizing this conference. The key details of the conference are the first thing that the researchers see:

·         Conference Name (which should also be in the email subject line)

·         Conference Dates

·         Conference Location

·         Link to the Conference Website

·         Objectives and Theme of the Conference

If the conference is in partnership with an academic journal, or if it is sponsored by an affiliate, then all these information are also included in the call for papers.

2. Submission Guidelines

Call for papers include all the relevant guidelines and information regarding the paper submission:

·         Deadline for paper submissions

·         Conference tracks that the researchers can submit to

·         Conference paper formats to be followed

·         Word limit or page limit

·         Important dates such as the notification of acceptance or the deadline for final paper submission

If the guidelines are too long then the link for the complete or detailed guidelines can be provided. In such case, only an outline of the submission process of call for papers for the conference is required.

3. Review Process

Call for papers include clear information of the review process for the research papers. The review process in scientific conferences is double-bind to ensure originality, timeliness, relevance, and readability and for this the authors or the researchers are requested to anonymize their submission.

4. Conference Tracks

Most important part of the call for papers is the conference tracks. The researchers are keen to know the topics covered by the respective conference.

Computing Conference :- Tracks: Technology Trends, Computing, Intelligent Systems, Machine Vision, Security, Communication, Electronics, e-Learning

Intelligent Systems Conference (IntelliSys) :- Tracks: Artificial Intelligence, Machine Vision, Robotics, Ambient Intelligence

Future Technologies Conference (FTC) :- Tracks: Technology Trends, Computing, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Vision, Communication, Security, e-Learning, Electronics

Future of Information and Communication Conference (FICC) :- Tracks: Communication, Data Science, Ambient Intelligence, Networking, Computing, Security and Privacy

5. Publication and Indexing

To be recognized as an authoritative and a high-quality source of information, the conference proceedings must be widely available. The authors wish to publish their research paper for the heightened visibility, industry credibility, and research activity. Therefore, publication and indexing information is also an important part of call for papers in scientific conferences.
