Smart Circular Economy

Submission Guidelines

Submissions will be made using the EasyChair server. The workshop submission link is:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smace21

Prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality papers reporting original research or other relevant to Circular Economy activities (such as industrial use-cases) that lie within the scope of the Workshop.

All papers will be reviewed and evaluated by the members of SmaCE Programme Committee and swill be evaluated based on their originality, merit, and relevance to the Workshop. A small number of papers will appear by invitation. Accepted papers must be presented at the Workshop in order to be published in the SmaCE 2021 proceedings, which will be published by IEEE and will be listed by all major academic indexes.

Note that the Workshop follows a single-blind review policy. The names and affiliations of all the authors must be presented in the submitted manuscript.

No-show papers submitted by authors who did not present the paper in-person will not be included in the workshop proceedings. No refund of the paid fees can be claimed by the no-show authors. Presentations by proxies are not allowed, unless explicitly approved by the organisers.

The manuscripts must be prepared in English (UK or US spelling), following the IEEE two-column Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings (available here) with a maximum length of eight (8) printed pages including text, figures, and references. Authors may add at most two (2) pages, but only for an appendix, i.e. these two pages contain supplementary material only. The additional two pages will incur overlength charges at 100USD/page.
