Research papers, posters and demonstrations, as well as Doctoral Consortium (DC) submissions will be handled through EasyChair (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ectel2022). Apart from the DC submissions, all papers will be reviewed through a double blind review process, i.e. authors must upload their papers without any reference to themselves or their institutions.

Accepted research, poster and demo papers will be published in the conference proceedings. As every year, the proceedings will be published within Springer “Lecture Notes in Computer Science” (LNCS) Series. The use of supplied template is mandatory: https://www.springer.com/de/it-informatik/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines. Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX (Overleaf template) or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made.

Workshop proposals will be handled separately and submissions will be not done through EasyChair (see website).

Doctoral Consortium papers will be published in CEUR Workshop Proceedings (CEUR-WS) and authors have to comply with the CEUR template.

• Research Papers: 8-14 pages, published in LNCS Springer Conference Proceedings.
• Poster Papers: 5-7 pages (updated) (published in LNCS Springer Conference Proceedings). If the paper is accepted, authors will be required to prepare an additional page describing their work. This page will not be published in the proceedings, but it will be used to organize the sessions. Submissions will be handled independently by workshop organisers, who will define the submission procedure.
• Demonstration Papers:  5-7 pages (updated) (published in LNCS Springer Conference Proceedings). If the paper is accepted, authors will be required to prepare an additional page describing their work. This page will not be published in the proceedings, but it will be used to organize the sessions.
• Workshop proposals: online form (see website), not published in proceedings
• Doctoral Consortium papers: 5-10 pages, published in CEUR DC Proceedings
