Participation steps:

1. Format and submit your article to conf2024@iseic.cz  using our template till March 20 and fill up the Registration Form. Does not matter whichever of the two you do first.
2. Pay The Conference Participation Fee when your paper topic is accepted (you receive an email when we will inform you about topic acceptance*) till March 20.
3. Add conf2024@iseic.cz to your address book so you always receive an email from us as otherwise it may end up in your spam folder and you may miss it.

*- even after the acceptance of the topic we will ask you to update your article to match all publishing requirements (typically language and formatting details). We will also ask you for updates based on reviews of your article.

Comments on submission

Be aware that by participating you and your co-authors agree with the Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement of the ISEIC. Also, you need to disclose all related conflicts of interest in Registration Form or in a separate email using the ISEIC C.O.I. form (editable Word DOCX, PDF) sent to conf2024@iseic.cz. In case there is no COI, tick the “No conflict of interests apply for any and all authors of the submitted paper” in the Registration Form.

All regular participants who will come to Prague need to submit at least an abstract before their arrival.

We advise you to send us at least the first draft for comments during February or early March. The better your article follows our template, the later you can send your article. If it is perfect, you can submit it even during the conference. We will edit the articles afterward, so you will still work on it with us even after the conference to perfect your article(s).

A guide on how to improve the English language of conference articles

1. If you need to use a translator, then prefer DeepL to Google Translate.
2. Cross-check the quality of the translation. That means you translate a paragraph, then translate the paragraph back to your original language, and repeat that until the translation in your language will match your original text. Only then you can have a sufficiently high likelihood the translation is adequate.
3. Use DeepL Write for improvement of the translated text. Again, check the translation to your local original language to make sure the English version is acceptable or better than the original.
4. Use GPT to a minimum as it tends to write general text without much content and that is easily recognized by editors and reviewers. Use it with caution for text improvement.
5. Double check the result in case you use DeepL Write, GPT, or other AI models as their advice, suggestions or corrections are frequently not appropriate.
6. Do never rely on AI models to generate a scientific text for you. AI predicts only the next word and when references and citations are needed, AI models fail almost always.

Want to become a co-organizing institution?

Contact us if you represent an institution that is interested to be mentioned in the proceedings book as an official co-sponsoring/co-organizing partner of this international conference. The certificate will be provided. Such sponsorship is independent of other services offered as registration of authors or processing of articles. No additional goods or services (e.g. registration of participants, processing of articles) will be provided in the return / then it would not be a gift/sponsoring fee. This participating institution means that the institution becomes the official co-sponsor and co-organizer. Such an option may be useful for certain institutions in certain countries in terms of regulatory requirements of the Ministry of Education or other regulatory and/or finances redistributing authorities and usually increases the accreditation rating of such an institution. This is independent of individual participant registration.
