Author Guidelines

Paper Submission

Authors are invited to submit their full papers in English through the EDAS platform. All manuscripts will undergo a rigorous review process for an acceptance decision. Accepted authors will be invited to give an oral presentation at the conference, and their manuscripts will be published in the conference proceedings.

Paper Format

Manuscripts should be between 10 to 15 pages in length, including references, figures, and tables. Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts adhere to the required styles, fonts, and formatting as specified in the provided template. By submitting, authors agree to reformat their papers to comply with any future updates to the submission template.

Template

All papers submitted to ICoSE 2025 must be prepared using the official template for the Springer Information Systems Engineering and Management (ISEM) book series:


Third-Party Material

Authors must ensure that any third-party material (e.g., images, figures, or tables taken from other sources, the web, etc.) included in the manuscript is used in compliance with copyright laws. Proper permissions must be obtained, and full attribution must be provided.

Code of Conduct for Authors
