The submitting author, who is generally the contact author, is responsible for the manuscript during the submission and peer-review process. The contact author must ensure that all co-authors have been included in the author list in our submission system (Openconf) and that they have all read and approved the submitted version of the manuscript.
To submit your manuscript:
- Register and log in to the submission website using the Make Submission option. Please fill in all the information about the paper and the authors' list. In the “Contact Author” section: choose the author to be contacted by the system from the list of authors you entered in the previous section. Please enter a second author or e-mail address in the “Alternate Contact” field, if you can not be reached by the Contact Author e-mail. Add the EDUNINE e-mail addresses (edunine@edunine.eu and edunine@copec.eu) to your contact list in your e-mail system to avoid that the OpenConf e-mails are reported as spam by your e-mail system. Please check the information and click on the “Make Submission” button to save the information and the system will create a Submission Id for your paper. If the information registration is successful, the system will send an e-mail to the Contact Author with your “Submission Id” (which can also be seen in the message indicating that the process was successful). Please, use this “Submission Id” also for any communication with the chairs about your paper.
- Once you have registered, upload the manuscript file with the Upload File option. Log in using the Submission Id and password you provided during the registration. The paper must be submitted as an MS Word file in DOC or DOCX format (PDF format is only accepted for LaTeX users). Please, contact us in case of an error at edunine@edunine.eu. Include the Submission Id and the error of the OpenConf system in the text of the e-mail and we will help you solve the problem. Don't send the file by e-mail. We CANNOT upload paper files or update any paper information or authors' personal information by the privacy of personal data laws in force.
- You can redo the File Upload operation as many times as necessary to update the content of the file until the submission deadline. Each new version replaces the previous one.
- To see the uploaded file, please log in with the View File option.
- To add, update or delete a paper and/or authors' information, log in with the Edit Submission option. Please don't forget to click on the "Submit Changes" button to make the changes permanent. To improve the processing of the papers, we would appreciate every time you change the paper title, abstract, keywords, and/or authors, you also make the same changes in the information in our submission system using the "Edit Submission" option.
- If you want to withdraw your paper for any reason, you can use the “Withdraw Submission” option. Log in and click on the "Withdraw Submission" button. All information and the file with this Submission Id are permanently deleted from the system. If you have withdrawn your submission incorrectly, please contact us at edunine@edunine.eu including the Submission Id in the text of the e-mail and we will restore the information of the paper. You must upload the file again.
