Type of Submissions

Regular Papers

Prospective authors are invited to submit original contributions as 12-page papers (not counting references) to be considered regular papers. HEART 2025 adopts a double-blind review process, authors should not identify themselves, so author names, affiliations, e-mail addresses, and self-references should be blanked out. 

Work in Progress Papers
You may submit an extended abstract of up to 4 pages (not counting references) on an ongoing research project. This is intended to provide an opportunity for in-depth discussion or collaboration with other researchers on ongoing research.

If your abstract is accepted, you will be asked to give an oral presentation. The presentation time may be shorter than for regular papers.

Ph.D. Forum

Ph.D. students working in areas relevant to HEART 2025 are solicited to submit an extended abstract of up to 4 pages (not counting references) comprising a summary of their research findings, work in progress, and/or planned research―the Ph.D. Forum is intended as a platform for Ph.D. students to interact with peers and experienced researchers. 

• The form of Ph.D. forum will consist of pitch and poster presentations.

• The Ph.D. student should be the first author; thesis advisors may be co-authors. The technical program committee will review submissions to ensure quality and relevance.  

Important note to authors about the new ACM open access publishing mode

ACM has introduced a new open access publishing model for the International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS). Authors based at institutions that are not yet part of the ACM Open program and do not qualify for a waiver will be required to pay an article processing charge (APC) to publish their ICPS article in the ACM Digital Library. To determine whether or not an APC will be applicable to your article, please follow the detailed guidance here: https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/author-guidance.

For 2025 ACM is providing a subsidy on APC pricing for ICPS, as follows:

• The 2025 subsidized APC rate for ICPS papers will be $350.

• For papers where any of the authors is a member of ACM, the APC rate will be $250.

• For ICPS papers whose corresponding author is based in a lower-middle-income country, the APC rate will be $175.

• For ICPS papers whose corresponding author is based in a lower-middle-income country and where any of the authors is a member of ACM, the APC rate will be $125.

• For ICPS papers whose corresponding author is based in a low-income country, no APC is required.

The subsidized pricing will apply to all papers that are processed through the ACM eRights system from 12:00 noon (US Eastern time) on March 6, 2025. Please note that ACM will not be providing refunds for APCs that have already been paid at that time.
