All speakers have to submit an abstract (200 words maximum) for the conference booklet and a 3-8 pages paper for the conference proceedings. The deadline for submission is March 31, 2017 extended deadline for submission is April 10, 2017.

Papers can be created using LaTeX or Microsoft Word, with the templates provided below. But you are asked to submit your paper in pdf format.

Templates for papers

Electronic submission is done in four steps. The submitting author is the contact person for this submission. Several submissions are possible with the same account. The blue buttons on the submission form should be used to save the different parts of a submission. Please follow the following guidelines.

  1. Create an account
    Open up https://mmr2017-workshop-account.u-ga.fr and follow the instructions. It is requested to enter an email address serving as an account identifier and a password containing at least one digit and a capital letter to protect access to the account. Then you will receive a confirmation email from workshop-review@sfds.asso.fr, entitled “Verify account”. Make sure that this mail is not treated as a spam. Please click the validation link (or copy in your browser) to validate the account creation.
    You can change the account settings later by logging in to https://mmr2017-workshop-account.u-ga.fr with your username and password.

  2. Create a submission
    1. Log onto https://mmr2017-workshop-review.u-ga.fr with your login (email address) and your password. At the first connexion enter your first name and last name.
    2. Click “New Submission”.
    3. Create your submission by filling at least the field “Title”.
    4. Click the blue “Save content” button. Your submission is now created. It can be modified as many times as needed, but it will be finalized only at the end of step 4.

  3. Manage a submission
    Prior to finalization by the green button (Step 4), a submission can be modified as many times as needed until March 31, 2017 April 10, 2017. This step is not necessary if the submission has been fully created in step 2. To modify a submission, click (“Manage submission…”) on the main menu of the submission site. Don’t forget to save the modifications.

  4. Finalize a submission
    On the main menu of the submission site, click on the submission to be finalized definitively (“Manage submission …”). To finalize a submission, it is mandatory to provide the full list of authors, abstract, keywords (from the drop-down list below) and paper in pdf format. Do not forget to click on the “Add author” button after having filled the details of each author.
    If all elements of the submission have been provided, clicking on the green button “Finalize and Send to Reviewer(s)” validates the submission. It can no longer be changed or deleted afterwards.
    After the creation of a submission and after its finalization, you will receive an e-mail summarizing the details you have filled in for your contribution.
