UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT SPECIAL TRACK AND BEST UNDERGRADUATE PAPER AWARD

Following up on ENIAC 2020, we will have a special track for papers whose first author is an Undergraduate student. Such papers will undergo the same reviewing process as papers on the main track. However, the best papers in this track will be invited to make an oral presentation in a special session and will run for the Best Undergraduate Paper Award.


PAPER FORMAT AND SUBMISSION

Manuscripts are limited to twelve (12) pages including text, references, appendices, tables, and figures. Articles may be written either in Portuguese or English, using the SBC article style:

SBC Template (http://www.sbc.org.br/documentos-da-sbc/summary/169-templates-para-artigos-e-capitulos-de-livros/878-modelosparapublicaodeartigos)

Papers written in Portuguese must have titles and abstracts in English.

Manuscripts that do not follow the formatting guidelines might be rejected without review.

Submissions should be carried out online using the JEMS system: https://jems.sbc.org.br/jems2/

Please select the appropriate track (Undergraduate track for papers whose main author is an Undergraduate student, Main track for the others).

The review process will be double-blind (authors' names and institutions must be omitted in the papers). All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two experts in the field. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present their work either in an oral presentation or in a poster session. All accepted papers will likely be published electronically through the SBC Open Lib - SOL. There will be no distinction between papers presented in oral or poster format in the proceedings.



BEST PAPER AWARD AND SPECIAL ISSUE

Authors of selected papers will be invited to present their work in a special session and will run for a Best Paper Award.
