Guidelines for paper submission

STIL 2023 accepts submissions of long and short papers. Long papers should describe finished, original, unpublished work with significant results, and will be presented orally. Short papers may report work in progress, negative results, opinion papers, or applications/demos, and will be presented as posters.

Language

All papers submitted to STIL must be written in Portuguese, English or Spanish.

Length

Long papers may have up to eight (8) pages of content (including tables and figures), and additional pages of references. Short papers should have up to four (4) pages of content and additional pages of references. Authors will be asked whether they agree to have their long paper relocated as a poster, if recommended by reviewers.

Format

Paper formatting must follow the SBC guidelines available at this link: https://www.sbc.org.br/documentos-da-sbc/summary/169-templates-para-arti...

Reviewing process

All papers submitted to STIL will be reviewed by 3 experts in the field. The reviewing process will be double-blind, and therefore papers should not contain any information regarding their authorship in the header or body of the text. Self-references that reveal the author’s identities must be avoided. For example, instead of “As we previously showed (Silva, 2005) ...” authors should use “Silva (2005) previously showed ...”.

Submission policy

By submitting papers to STIL 2023, all authors agree that at least one of them will register for the conference and present the paper in case of acceptance. This registration must take place before the deadline for the camera-ready version of the paper and must be made in the category established by the organization.

Important dates (all deadlines are 11:59 p.m. UTC-12:00 - anywhere on Earth!)

Deadline for long and short paper submission: June 25, 2023

Notification to authors: July 31, 2023

Camera-ready versions due: August 15, 2023
