•
HICSS papers must contain original material. They may not have been previously published, nor currently
submitted elsewhere. All submissions undergo a double-blind peer review process; so initial submission must
be without author names.
•
Abstracts are optional, but strongly recommended. You may contact the Minitrack Chair(s) for guidance
or verification of content.
•
Submit a paper to only one Minitrack. If a paper is submitted to more than one minitrack, then either paper
may be rejected by either minitrack without consultation with author or other chairs. If you are not sure of the
appropriate Minitrack, submit an abstract to the Track Chair(s) – see names and contact information below.
for determination, and/or seek informal opinion(s) of Minitrack Chair(s) before submitting.
•
Do not author or co-author more than 5 papers. This means that an individual may be listed as author or
co-author on no more than 5 submitted papers. Track Chairs must approve any names added after
submission or acceptance on August 15.
