Submission Guidelines

Abstracts and papers will ONLY be accepted in electronic format through the Easy Chair online submission system. All abstracts must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another conference or journal. Please follow the instructions below for the production of your abstract. This is to ensure uniformity of the papers for the production of the proceedings.

• General:

The language of the conference and the abstract/paper submission is British English, particulalry in regards to spelling (consult online guides if uncertain, such as the OED). The conference will be attended by professionals and therefore technical language will be acceptable.

• Abstracts:

Your abstract should be a single paragraph not exceeding 300 words. It should provide an overview of the content and conclusion of the paper.

Referencing shall follow the Harvard alphabetical system. In the Harvard alphabetical system the name of the author appears in the text together with the year of publication, e.g. (Author, 2013) or Author (2013). In the case of two authors, both names should be given in the text: (Author and Author, 2013) or Author and Author (2013). However, if there are more than two authors, only the first author’s name should appear followed by et al.: (Author et al., 2015) or Author et al. (2015). If you refer to different works by one author or group of authors in the same year they should be differentiated by including a, b, etc. after the date (e.g. 2013a). If you want to refer to different pages of published work, the page number may be given in the text, e.g. Author (2010, p 39). If using the et al. convention, please ensure the correct use of italic script and a full stop only after ‘al.’.
