Paper preparation

Manuscripts should be written in English. The majority of papers to be published in BIC-TA 2021 CCIS proceedings should be full papers (8 to 15 pages in the LNCS/CCIS one-column page format); short papers and poster papers (no less than 6 pages) should make up only for selected papers to be published. Particularly, we would like to require the authors to use Springer conference paper templates (Latex template, Word template) to prepare papers, where the Latex is preferred. Authors whose papers to be published in CCIS need to sign the Springer CCIS Copyright Transfer.

All accepted papers will be published in Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) by Springer. CCIS is abstracted/indexed in EI-Compendex, ISI Proceedings, etc. We refer authors to Springer’s CCIS webpage, for all information related to CCIS.

A part of selected high-quality papers will be extended for publishing in several journals (after reviewing). If a paper is selected to be published in a journal, authors of the paper will be requested to re-prepare the paper according to the “Author Guideline” of the journal.Paper submission
All papers should be submitted via the online submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bicta20210)
