ICMPC10: Guided Tour of the Submission Pages

Introduction

  • This page provides an overview of the pages you will see while using this system.
    In that sense, this page is as an annotated sitemap of the entire system.
     
  • The pages listed here are mock-ups of the actual pages. Clicking their buttons will have no effect.
  • The actual version of most of the pages listed below are generated on-demand, that is, their HTML image is created upon user's request; and do not exist as static HTML files.
  • Some of the pages may look slightly different from the current actual pages, due to changes made after these pages were prepared.
     
  • You should also try working on the actual pages to grasp the actual working image.
    All operations can be cancelled, so you are free and safe to attempt tryouts.

(Unannotated) Site Map of the System

  • The following lists up the URL links referred to in the later sections (annotated versions).
    See the individual sections for more detailed explanation.
  • The indentation corresponds to the order of how the pages are shown.
    Starting from the leftmost page, you will proceed to the right-indented pages along with your work.
    Pages shown at the same indent level correspond to branching, e.g. where one can proceed to different pages, or where different pages are shown, depending on whether the input has errors or not.

Submission Pages

Making New Submissions / Drafts

The submissions are accepted in various submission categories, types, and text formats. This can be selected for new submissions by selecting the proper radio buttons and clicking the button.

The system opens a Submission Page according to the given setting. Four such example pages are given below.

Submission Process

After entering the required items (including the abstract text), the input results are recorded to the system by submitting the input (or saving it as a draft). The sequences of pages shown in the submission process is given below for each of the four submission types listed above.

If there is some error in the input (e.g. a required item is not given), the system shows an error report on top of the page, and asks you to correct the items marked with *.

If no errors are detected, then the system performs the submission operation, shows the result page and sends a notification mail to all the designated recipients, including the submitter, co-authors, and speakers/discussants in case of a symposium proposal.
No mail is sent in case of saving/editing drafts.

Symposium Position Paper

When you are named as a symposium speaker by the symposium organizer, the symposium information will be listed in the symposium section of your personal page. The symposium proposal and other speaker's position paper submissions can be viewed there.

To prepaer submission of your position paper, Click the button, which will show the following page.

In this page, you can either select the type of your submission much in the same way as other submissions presented above; or choose to convert one of your existing submissions (either spoken paper or poster) into a position paper submission for this symposium. The rest of the submission process will proceed in the same manner as other submissions. You can later revert your position paper to a spoken paper or poster presentation if you like.

Template WORD files

The system provides template WORD files for those who wish to upload their structured abstracts written with WORD. Each of the Submission Pages provide links to the specific template file for the given submission category and research type.
The entire list of template files is given below. The files differ from each other in the preset header and section names.
