Authors' Guide

The purpose of this Authors' Guide website is to provide [simple, compact] [text, images, links] to assist young researchers' use of the IEEE conference systems and IJCNN2019 requirements. It might also help as a map for experienced scientists who are not familiar with the IEEE systems. It will not be much help to scientists who are familiar with those systems. Blog web-pages are also available for each web-page.

Author actions : paper preparation through conference attendance

For [first time or rare] use, the [terminology, process] of the IEEE system can be a bit confusing. It's important NOT to omit actions at critical stages of the process, and perhaps the Authors' Guide [web-pages, blogs] will help with that.

See the "menu" near the top of this webpage for deadlines.

Authors' Guide - this web-page is the "home page" for the author website, providing an overall description.
What you need to know : from paper preparation to initial paper submission
- Paper formatting (page, blog) - description, what NOT to do, basic formatting, templates
- IEEE PDF eXpress plus (page, blog) - check that paper has proper [formatting, style, setup] to be compatible with IEEE standards. This is required for final paper acceptance, but may help with initial paper submissions.
- Initial paper submission (page, blog)
What you need to know : from initial to final paper acceptance
- IEEE Electronic Copyright Form (eCf) submissions (page, blog) - required for final paper acceptance
- Conference registration (page, blog) - required for final paper acceptance
- Final paper submission (page, blog)
What you need to know : getting to the conference, presentations
- Travel visas (page, blog) - Some links that may help, but this is entirely the responsability of each attendee!
- Conference presentations (page, blog) - Under development - Links to help with presentations.

Non-Author parts of the paper process

These sections are intended as a very basic outline of how paper submissions are processed by the various conference committees. Although not of much use to experienced authors, handy references might be of interest, or even useful, to young authors. Note that most information is available to the public, but access to some links is restricted to [IJCNN authors, IEEE members, IJCNN Organising Committee members, IEEE [Meetings, Conferences, Events] staff].

IEEE CrossCheck Portal (page, blog) - understanding the plagiarism checks
Paper reviews (page, blog) - from the author's perspective
IEEE Xplore (page, blog) - web-publishing of conference proceedings

REMINDERS : This Authors' Guide is specific to the IEEE conference paper system, and for the most part links to, or repeats, information that is copyrighted by the IEEE. Keep in mind that the IEEE processes something like 1,800 conferences per year, and delays exceeding a week are to be expected, with longer delays during high-activity parts of the year. So don't wait too long before starting each process!
Author preparations for the conference include (roughly in squence) :

Initial submission of your paper to the IEEE paper review system.
Receipt of an email paper acceptance notification from the Program Co-Chairs via the IEEE paper review system.
Payment of the conference registration fee. At least one of the co-authors must be registered for the conference to present the paper.
IEEE approval of a signed IEEE electronic Copyright form (eCf) (online submission)
Submission and approval of a properly revised final paper.
Travel visa approval, for citizens of countries required to do that by Hungary.
?What else have I forgotten? ...

WARNING : This web-page is an early stage DRAFT that WILL contain errors and omissions. I would appreciate email feedback about the Authors' Guide's [utility for you, content that could be added, broken links, questions]. Additionally, please [comment, question, advise, recount your experiences] on any of the topics of the Authors' Guide.
