Paper submissions
Submission date for papers (refereed and non-refereed) is now 2 July 2007
Abstract submission has now closed.
Once an Editorial Review Panel has accepted a proposed paper, authors
will be invited to submit their draft papers for presentation at the
conference. It is expected that papers will have an average length of 5,000
words with a maximum length of 6,000.
When submitting abstracts authors were asked to indicate whether they intend
to submit a refereed or non-refereed paper. Refereed papers will be
anonymously, externally, peer-refereed in accordance with DEST guidelines
and papers that are accepted will be published on the Conference website.
Non-refereed papers give an opportunity for research ‘work in progress’ to
be presented. PhD candidates may also feel that the non-refereed route is an
appropriate way of presenting their work to a wider audience.
