ICTERI is an annual peer-reviewed international Computer Science conference. It focuses on research, design, development, deployment, and usage of advanced Information Systems (IS) and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Infrastructures in industry and education. Special attention is given to the feasibility and practicality of the proposed ideas/solutions, with a focus on their potential or existing implementation. This can be demonstrated, for example, by a proof-of-concept implementation, a comprehensive prototype, a comprehensive case study, or the analysis of real use cases. Submissions on academic-industrial partnerships for ICT innovation, knowledge transfer, and technological/methodological reports are also welcome.

Presential Mode
ICTERI supports and respects all the aspects that help promote diversity in our conference community, which aspires to facilitate a truly international and multicultural gathering. Therefore, we prefer physical assembly for the conference as the most effective mode for scientific exchange and community building.We fully understand, however, that some participants might be under higher risk or stricter constraints, like international travellers. This is why we allow virtual participation for the attendees, as an exclusion. The speakers, who present accepted contributed papers, are expected to be physically present at the conference.
The information about the arrangements and requirements for the virtual attendees is provided and updated at https://icteri.org/icteri-2024/hybrid/.

Submission Guidelines
The language of the ICTERI Main Conference is English. Submissions in any other language or not following the style or academic code of ethics guidelines will be rejected without review. Presentations in any other language are also not accepted and withdrawn from the program. All submissions shall be annotated by keywords/phrases freely chosen by the authors. At least three and at most five key phrases have to be provided. All submissions must comply with the Springer LNCS format guidelines: https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines. Formatting instructions and template as well as submission guidelines are provided for your convenience at the ICTERI-2024 website: https://icteri.org/icteri-2024/. Please submit your paper, in .pdf, to the applicable ICTERI-2024 Track via the EasyChair Conference Management System: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icteri2024.
Submission Types
Several types of papers are solicited for the ICTERI Main Conference tracks. The optional appendix can go beyond the indicated page limits and will be consulted at the discretion of the program committee.
I. Full research papers (12-16 LNCS pages)
- Report on accomplished, unpublished research work
- Present a novel method, technique or analysis with appro-priate empirical or other evaluation as proof of validity
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical soundness and the soundness of the real-use demonstration.
II. Short research papers (10-12 LNCS pages)
- Short reports of preliminary results or work-in-progress
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical correctness and the value of the planned results in a short to mid-term perspective.
III. Industry/Education experience papers (12-16 LNCS pages)
- Report on industrial or academic deployments of novel ICT
- Experiences in the effective/efficient use of novel ICT in education
Evaluation focuses on the significance and practical relevance, technical soundness, and accompanying evaluation or industrial validation.
The papers submitted as one of the above types (I-III) that are: (i) evaluated as not sufficiently mature by the Program Com-mittee; and (ii) recognized by the reviewers as interesting and promising in their idea or approach; might be recommended as a Poster.
IV. Poster Papers (10-12 LNCS pages)
- Concisely present early-stage research in the form of a Short Paper. These papers outline preliminary ideas, concepts, and initial results shaping future work. Posters will be presented in a separate poster session.
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical correctness, the value of the research ideas, and the potential to become a mature research outcome in a short-to-mid-term perspective.
More details on the requirements for different paper types and the ways these papers are presented at the conference are provided on the Paper Types page at the ICTERI-2024 website: https://icteri.org/icteri-2024/submission-types/.
