PAPER CATEGORIES
ISCRAMMed2017 invites three categories of papers:
Full papers presenting valid, original, relevant cutting edge
research that will be reviewed to the highest academic standards.
Reviewing will pay additional attention to the application of the
related scientific literature and theory, to the use of an appropriate
research methodology, and to technical, mathematical and statistical
correctness (10-14 pages, LNCS format).
Short papers introducing cutting edge research in progress and
outstanding that do not have yet a comprehensive evaluation as full
papers but still suppose a contribution in the domain of information
systems and technologies for emergency management (6-7 pages, LNCS
format).
Demo papers presenting new developments in emergency management and
policy making, discussing approaches, methods, tools, (best) practices
and standards. These papers should focus on practical issues and
concerns and raise challenges for future research, and will be reviewed
to the highest practice-oriented standards (4 pages, LNCS format).
