Web-based conference submission system
As a conference organizer, you can get access to our web-based system for managing conference submisssions such as abstracts or conference papers. If you want to send your conference papers on peer-review, this can also be done in the system. We use an own instance of Open Journal Systems (OJS). It is also here the proceeding is published.
We advise you to also create a conference website at liu.se. Unfortunately, we cannot offer registration forms or modules for payment. Please contact the communication office for advice.
We can offer you to perform plagiarism checks on the papers with Similarity Check.
Publish conference proceedings
LiU E-press publishes conference proceedings or book of abstracts in one of our conference series. The publication is free of charge for both editors and authors and all papers will be published under Open Access. It is requred that the conference is connected to LiU, for example: that one of the organizers or editors are employed by LiU.
