The abstract submission process has now closed and all submitting authors have been notified.
Only papers with an accepted abstract are invited to upload a full paper for presentation at the conference. Please ensure you have read the full paper formatting requirements and that you have your *ABSTRACT SUBMISSION number ready as you will need it to complete the upload of your full paper.
*This abstract submission number is on the ABSTRACT acceptance letter that was sent to the email address of the contact person who uploaded the abstract. You will not be able to continue with uploading your Full Paper on the submission form until the ABSTRACT SUBMISSION number is entered.
Full papers submitted by 1st November 2018 will qualify for reviewing, awards and may be nominated for inclusion in the Paper Development Sessions (PDS)
Alternatively your full paper can be uploaded by 30 November for inclusion in the regular academic paper program but it will not qualify for reviewing, awards or the PDS program.
Peer Reviews, Program Inclusion and Conference Proceedings
All full papers received by the deadline of Wednesday 1 November will be sent for reviewing.
Only submissions where there is a registered & paid presenting author (or delegate) as at 14 December 2018 will be included in the Program.
Acknowledgement of receipt of your paper will be emailed to you. This will give you the opportunity to check the details of your submission, including the title, abstract, author details etc. These details will then be included in the Conference Handbook and Program. If you do identify an error please do not resubmit as this will create a double up in the system, rather please email acereconference@qut.edu.au who can assist you in correcting your submission details.
