Accepted Papers
Call for Presentations
Scope
Authors of high-quality and relevant journal articles are invited to present their work at the VL/HCC 2024 conference. A submission to the journal-first paper presentations track must adhere to the following criteria:
- The associated journal paper must be accepted to one of the following journals no earlier than January 1, 2023 and no later than June 1, 2024:
- Elsevier’s Journal of Computer Languages (COLA)
- IEEE Transactions of Software Engineering (TSE)
- ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (TOSEM)
- ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction (TOCHI)
- Taylor-Francis’s Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)
- Springer’s Empirical Software Engineering (ESE)
- Elsevier’s Information and Software Technology (IST)
- Elsevier’s Journal of Systems and Software (JSS)
- IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG)
- ACM Transactions on Computing Education (TOCE)
- Taylor-Francis’s Computer Science Education (CSE)
- Multimodal Technologies and Interaction (MTI)
- The paper is in the scope of the conference.
- The paper has not been presented at and is not under consideration for, journal-first programs of other conferences.
How to Submit
The authors of a paper that respects these criteria are invited to submit a proposal for a journal-first presentation. This submission should include two documents:
- A one-page presentation proposal (in IEEE 2-column format). This should include: the paper’s title, the paper’s authors, the original paper’s abstract, and where the paper was published.
- A pdf of the original journal paper.
Submit both at: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=vlhcc2024 by selecting the “VL/HCC 2024 journal-first track”. The one-page summary and paper are for review purposes only and will not be published.
Evaluation
The journal-first selection committee will evaluate if the submission is within the scope of the VL/HCC conference and satisfies the above listed eligibility criteria. We plan to select as many papers as possible, but if the interest is higher than expected, the track chairs, together with the conference technical program co-chairs, will reserve the right to prioritize papers that better fit the conference technical program. As the papers have already been reviewed and accepted by high quality journals, they will not be reviewed again for technical correctness. They will be checked for the journal-first criteria and prioritized according to fit within the conference themes. Authors will not receive any reviews with the notification.
Important Dates
- Submission deadline: June 04, 2024, 23:59 AoE (Anywhere on Earth, UTC-12)
- Notification: June 25, 2024
Presentation
If a submission is accepted for the journal-first program, at least one author of the associated journal paper must register and attend the conference to present the paper. A journal-first presentation will be scheduled in a session with topically related papers. The journal-first papers are published through the journals and will not be part of the VL/HCC proceedings. The journal-first papers will be listed in the conference program.
