Special session
Papers accepted or presented at premier venues (CORE A* / A conferences) in the last 12 months can also be submitted. A limited number may be accepted for the special session. Submit the camera-ready version with a first-page footnote stating where it appeared.
[ Review Process ]
Selection happens in two steps.
- 1
Program Committee review
Each submission is reviewed by Program Committee members. A first-pass conditional acceptance is issued based on this review.
- 2
90-second video round
Conditionally accepted authors submit a 90-second video of their presentation, which appears as a teaser on the workshop site.
- 3
Final notification
The committee makes the final selection based on the video round and notifies the authors.
IICT is a forum for discussion of ongoing and emerging research, so it does not publish formal proceedings. Authors are free to submit extended or revised versions of their work to other conferences or journals afterwards.
