General Guidelines (Draft Papers)
|
Prospective authors are
invited to submit their draft paper (between
5 to 7 pages, standard 2
column IEEE style)
(file
size limitation:
5.0
MB).
Submitted papers should not have been previously
published nor be currently under consideration
for presentation or
publication elsewhere.
Different to practice at
some
other WORLDCOMP'14
conferences and
different from the announcement in WORLDCOMP's
general CfP, DMIN'14 uses an online conference
management and paper submission system, to which
the draft papers must be submitted online,
in IEEE-format and exclusively as a
PDF-file (no doc(x) etc.).
Please follow
the formatting instructions for the draft
paper:
-
Paper Size: US Letter format (8.5" x
11") or A4 (210 X 297
mm)
-
Paper Length: Maximum 7
pages, including figures, tables &
references
-
Paper formatting: double column, single
spaced, 10pt font.
-
Margins: Left, Right, and Bottom: 0.75"
(19mm). The top margin must be 0.75" in
(19 mm), except for the title page where
it must be 1" (25 mm).
-
Do not number your manuscript pages.
-
The first page must include:
-
Title
of the paper
-
Name,
affiliation, postal address, E-mail
address, telephone number, and fax
number for each author
-
Underline the name of the author who
will be presenting the paper (if
accepted) - This will not be
required for the camera ready
version!
-
a maximum of
5
keywords - This will not be required
for the camera ready version!
Violations
of any of the above paper specifications may
result in rejection of your paper!
You may download preliminary
information on the IEEE style below. Please
consider, that although these files are IEEE
information for submissions to the WCCI'06
conference, they are also the requirement for
DMIN'14.
This information may be updated for the final
camera ready submission to the WORLDCOMP
online paper collection system.

Online Submission of the Draft
Paper
To submit your paper please visit the online conference
system for DMIN'14 hosted by Conference Master.
Please submit papers (deadline: March 15, 2014). Please click on the button below to access to
the DMIN conference management system:
If you want to submit
your paper to a special
session, please select an appropriate 'track' within
the paper submission system.
Please do not send papers by email!
Emailed submissions will be rejected without further
notification.
Review Process
Papers will be evaluated for originality,
significance, clarity, and soundness. Each paper will be
refereed by two researchers in the topical area. To
reflect upon feedback from last year we will extend the
constructive feedback given within the review. Please
consult the pages for the
Review Process for additional
Information.
We
particularly encourage submissions of industrial
applications and case studies from practitioners. To
reflect the requirements of an application or project
centric case study presentation, these will be subject
to different review criteria. In particular, they will
not be evaluated using predominantly theoretical
research criteria of originality etc., but will take
general interest and presentation stronger into
consideration. The camera-ready papers will be reviewed
by one person.
Final Papers -
Registration and Submission
Author instructions and
links to important websites will be provided by the
notification of acceptance. As indicated in the
notification, the final camera-ready papers will have to be
submitted to WORLDCOMP's specific online paper
collection system (i.e., NOT our DMIN online draft paper
management system for draft papers).
Authors
who register AND follow the instructions that appeared
in the notification of acceptance by the extended
deadline of June 1, 2014, will have their papers
published in the proceedings that will be distributed to
attendees on site at the conference.
Authors who are unable to do the above by June 1 BUT can
register and follow the instructions that appeared in
the notification of acceptance by June 30, 2014, Will
have their papers published in the Final edition of the
proceedings which goes to press after the conference (in
late September) - we would then ship such authors the
printed copy of the final edition as soon as it becomes
available. The Final edition of the proceedings is the
same as preliminary edition except for the addition of
one section at the end of the proceedings.
Conference Proceedings
The
conference proceedings
will be published by CSREA Press in hardcopy. The proceedings
are distributed at the conference
(registration package).
Proceedings of DMIN will be published in printed
conference books (ISBN) and will also be made available
online. The proceedings will be indexed in science
citation databases that track citation frequency/data
for each published paper (science citation databases
such as: Inspec / IET / The Institute for Engineering &
Technology; The French National Center for Scientific
Research, CNRS, INIST databases, PASCAL (covers the core
scientific literature in Science; about 90% of
inclusions are journals; only about 9% are proceedings;
worldcomp tracks are selected to be among the 9% -
accessable from INIST, Datastar, Dialog, EBSCO, OVID,
Questel.Orbit, Qwam, and STN International); and others.
Though, there is no guarantee that the proceedings will
also be included in EI Compendex/Elsevier indexings, in
the past, worldcomp tracks were included in these
databases. Therefore, we will also be sending the
proceedings for indexing procedures to EI Compendex/Elsevier.
The printed proceedings/books will be available for
distribution on site at the conference.
Citation Index
The proceedings/books of
DMIN have been evaluated for inclusion into science
citation index / SCI databases. We are happy to report
that so far, the evaluation board of science citation
index databases have APPROVED the indexing, integrating,
and inclusion of DMIN into relevant Elsevier indexing
databases (Elsevier indexing databases include, among
others: Scopus,
www.info.scopus.com; SCI Compendex, Engineering
Village,
www.ei.org; EMBASE,
www.info.embase.com; and others). In addition,
proceedings will be indexed by a number of other science
citation databases that track citation frequency/data
for each paper.
