Submission Requirements
Academic Paper
Use this category in case you want to orally present findings of a relevant academic paper. Successful authors will be invited to orally present or to submit a poster. Successful authors will also be invited to provide long (typically 8 pages excluding references, let us know in advance should you need more) or short (4 pages including references) papers for proceedings. Paper submissions will be judged based on abstracts, uploading a full paper is facultative and you will be given a deadline for proceedings in due course. Papers at the initial submission stage should do not need to be specifically formatted. The only formal requirement is to use citations and references in the Harvard format (http://www.citationmachine.net/harvard-cite-them-right). If you published or presented the paper before, you should say so in the submission and you are also responsible for securing previous publisher’s consent in case your paper is accepted for presentation/publication at FEISGILTT 2017. At the proceedings publication deadline, formatting and length restriction guidelines will be enforced.
Interoperability Showcase (demo)
Use this category in case you want to present a live demo of a relevant product or solution. Live demo is an obligatory part of this category presentation. Presented systems can be mature prototypes or products. Marketing statements are strongly discouraged. Presenter should be able to explain and demonstrate at the technical level, why and that the presented solution is relevant for the conference. Cooperations of multiple subjects demonstrating interoperability based on multiple open standards are encouraged. Showcase demo presenters should state upfront if they also want to publish an informative paper in the proceedings in case of acceptance. Short and long papers published along with demos will need to fulfill the same publishing requirements as Academic papers (see above). Publishing a paper with a demo is encouraged but by no means a requirement.
Case Study
Use this category in case you want to give a presentation of an industry application of open standards, successful or “lessons learnt” :-).This category won’t be judged with academic rigor. You may want to present a short demo, as well, but it is not a requirement. Cooperations of multiple subjects demonstrating interoperability based on multiple open standards are encouraged. If you want to publish a paper in proceedings, you should NOT choose this category of submission. Informative publication of slides is possible and encouraged.
Panel Discussion
Use this category if you want to organize a high impact panel on an important issue. Proposer should have secured participation of all proposed panelists in case of acceptance. Program committees may make panel counter-proposals based on your ideas or independently.
Poster
Use this category, in case your research, demo, or case study is not suitable for oral presentation. You may be invited to publish a short or long paper based on your Poster proposal. In your poster proposal you should state if you are interested in short or long paper publishing in proceedings. Publishing a (short) paper is encouraged, but by no means a requirement for this category.
