Submission

Submission Guidelines

The submissions should be in electronic format (PDF), based on original, unpublished work. The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. Only the title should be shown at the first page without the author's information. Peer groups with expertise in the tracks focus areas will blindly review submissions. Accepted papers will be published in the annual proceedings and ACM digital library.  Submission guidelines can be found on SAC 2026 Website.

Prospective papers should be submitted to the track using the EasyChair submission system. Regular papers and Poster papers are limited to 8 and 3 pages, respectively. A few key words should be provided. A paper cannot be sent to more than one track. Original manuscripts (regular papers) should be submitted in electronic format on the Cloud Continuum Track.

SAC No-Show Policy

Paper registration is mandatory to include papers and posters in the conference proceedings. An author or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper. This requirement applies to all accepted papers, posters, and invited SRC submissions for inclusion in the ACM digital library. In case of personal circumstances preventing physical attendance, online presentation is allowed, ensuring the paper's inclusion in the ACM digital library. Note that no registration refund will be issued to no-show authors.

Copyright Notice

As instructed in the author kit, authors will receive an email from ACM that contains info on how to complete and submit the copyright. The email from ACM contains a link to the copyright webpage where authors will need to check the title and author names of their paper, correct them if wrong, and then submit the completed copyright form to the ACM system by clicking a submit button. Authors need to upload the final camera-ready copies (papers, posters, and SRC abstracts) to the submission system so that they are verified for inclusion in the proceedings.
