New Idea TrackInternetware 2024

Call for Papers

Scope

A new idea track paper is not just a scaled-down version of a full research track paper. The new idea track is reserved for first-class, top-quality technical contributions. Therefore, a new idea submission is neither a full research track submission with weaker or no evaluation nor an op-ed piece advertising existing and already published results. Authors of such submissions should instead consider submitting to either the main track or other venues of publications.

Evaluation Criteria

Each submission will be reviewed and evaluated in terms of the following quality criteria:

• Significance: The extent to which the paper’s contributions can impact the field of software engineering, and under which assumptions (if any);
• Novelty: The extent to which the contributions are sufficiently original concerning the state-of-the-art;
• Soundness: The extent to which the paper’s contributions and the authors’ plans for future work are based rigorous application of appropriate research methods;
• Presentation: The extent to which the paper’s quality of writing meets the high standards of Internetware, including clear descriptions, adequate use of the * English language, absence of major ambiguity, clearly readable figures and tables, and adherence to the formatting instructions provided below;
• Verifiability: The extent to which the paper includes sufficient information to understand how innovation works; to understand how data was obtained, analyzed, and interpreted; and how the paper supports independent verification or replication of the paper’s claimed contributions.

Formatting and Submission

All submissions must not exceed 4 pages for all text, figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be in English and PDF format. Submissions that do not comply with the above instructions will be desk rejected without review. Please use the ACM Master article template, as can be obtained from the ACM Proceedings Template pages. Submissions to internetware 2024 conference meeting the above requirements can be made via the internetware 2024 submission site (https://internetware2024-newidea.hotcrp.com/) by the deadline. We encourage the authors to upload their paper info early (and can submit the PDF later) to properly enter conflicts for double-anonymous reviewing.

Double-Anonymous Submission Guidelines

The Internetware New Idea track will adopt a double-anonymous review process. No submitted paper may reveal its authors’ identities. The authors must make every effort to honor the double-anonymous review process; reviewers will be asked to honor the double-anonymous review process as much as possible. Any author having further questions on double-anonymous reviewing is encouraged to contact the track’s program co-chairs by email. Any submission that does not comply with the double-anonymous review process will be desk-rejected.

Conference Attendance Expectation

If a submission is accepted, at least one author of the paper is required to register for and attend the full 3-day technical conference and present the paper. The presentation is expected to be delivered in person.
