Submissions

Regular papers:  Authors are invited to submit original unpublished papers. Submission of the same paper to multiple tracks is not allowed. The program committee will blindly review submissions to the track. The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. This is to facilitate blind review. SA-TTA track chairs will not submit to the track. Submissions from SA-TTA PC members and track chairs of other SAC tracks are welcome.

Paper submissions must be made electronically in PDF format via the SAC 2017 website. The maximum length for papers is 6 pages, with the option for up to 2 additional pages at cost (US$80 per page). Further details on the paper format and submission guidelines can be found on the SAC 2017 website.

Paper registration is required, allowing the inclusion of the accepted paper or poster in the conference proceedings. An author or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper. This is a requirement for including the work in the ACM/IEEE digital library. No-show of registered papers, posters, and SRC abstracts will result in excluding them from the ACM/IEEE digital library.
