Duplicate submissions and novelty requirements
A research paper submitted to HIS 2019 cannot be under review for any other publishing forum or presentation venue; including conferences, workshops, and journals, during the time it is being considered for HIS 2019 conference. Furthermore, after you submit a research paper to HIS 2019, you have to wait for the response from HIS 2019 and only resubmit elsewhere if your paper is rejected--or withdrawn at your request--from HIS 2019. This restriction applies to identical papers as well as to papers with a substantial overlap in scientific content and results.
Every research paper submitted to HIS 2019 must present novel research not described in any prior publication. In this context, a prior publication is,
(a) a paper of four pages or more presented, or accepted for presentation, at a refereed conference or workshop with proceedings;
or
(b) an article published, or accepted for publication, in a refereed journal. If a HIS 2019 submission has overlap with a prior publication, the submission must cite the prior publication, along with all other relevant published work.
Reviewing process
Every research paper submitted to HIS 2019 will undergo a peer reviewing process. All accepted papers will be incorporated into the conference program and included in the conference proceedings published by Springer LNCS.
