Instructions for authors

Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts (in pdf format) written in English by the deadline via the conference online submission system (Easychair - see below). All submissions will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field based on originality, significance, quality and clarity. All contributions must be original, must not have been published elsewhere, and must not have been submitted elsewhere during the review period. Papers should be within 9 pages (including references) but must not exceed 12 pages, and must comply with the format of Springer LNCS/LNAI Proceedings (see www.springer.com/lncs).

Short Papers
To encourage emerging results and novel initial developments, especially from PhD students and young researchers, we accept short papers (within 6 LNCS pages). Short papers may be submitted a few days after the deadline. Such papers will also go through our vigorous peer-review process for its novelty and soundness with a much quicker turn-around time. Although short papers are mainly for the main track, they can be submitted to any  relevant Special Sessions too (information will be avaiable). The submission system will treat any papers that are within 6 pages as short papers and PC chairs will ensure a speedy review of them.

Paper submission for IDEAL 2022 is via Easychair:
