Dear Steve Sorry, but I am still in doubt. If one submits a paper as part of a panel, his acceptance is linked to the acceptance of the panel as a whole, right? What if a paper is particularly good but the panel itself does not make it? Can authors propose a double submission, either as part of a panel or not? I understand that it was this doubt, manifested by someone else, which rose the question in the first place. Thanks Sue On 25 Feb 2003 at 8:51, Steve Jones wrote:
There have been some questions concerning limits to conference submissions. In the interest of allowing for breadth of participation, AoIR's intention is to allow multiple submissions, but limit to:
One acceptance in each of the two categories below, determined after review:
1) paper proposal (main author) 2) panel proposal (organizer)
There is no limit to the number of times a person may:
3) be part of paper proposal(s) as co-author 4) serve as panel chair/discussant 5) serve as panel, roundtable or other non-panel event participant
Furthermore, while we would like to keep the length of proposals reasonable so that reviewers may read proposals in a timely fashion, it is true as Jeremy noted in a previous email that the online proposal system allows for every paper, including those in panels, to be up to 700 words, and that each panel description can have 700 words for itself - this means that a panel with 4 papers could have 3500 words (5 parts, proposal and 4 papers, each of 700 words). However, I do encourage panel organizers to keep as close as possible to the limits expressed in the call for papers: The panel organizer should submit an approximately 500 word statement describing the session topic, include abstracts of up to 250 words for each paper or presentation (e.g., 1000 words for four papers).
NOTE: Given this need for clarification, the conference submission deadline is extended until MARCH 10, 2003.
If there are any additional questions please contact me or Conference Program Co-Chair Matthew Allen (M.Allen@exchange.curtin.edu.au), or for questions about the online submission system contact Jeremy Hunsinger (jhuns@vt.edu).
Thank you, Steve Jones Sj
