Instructions and Templates for all CSD&M 2023 Accepted Authors

(Highly Important)

Dear All，

Congratulations that your paper abstract has been accepted by CSD&M 2023. There are two tracks for the full paper submission. To clarify the difference among the three tracks, please read the below message thoroughly, then prepare and submit your full paper accordingly with necessary support materials.

For all tracks, please prepare your paper with the provided word template.

  Track 1: Publication with Springer

If you wish to get your papers to be published with Springer at its Lecture Notes in Electric Engineering(LNEE), your revised and camera ready manuscript including supporting materials shall be submitted for publication before July 31th, 2023.

The corresponding author must be available to check the paper before it is published. Please note that once a paper has been delivered to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the paper cannot be made. Authors’ names cannot be added or deleted, their order cannot be changed, and the corresponding author cannot be altered.

According to the practice of Springer, the author name shall follow the order of Given Name + Family Name.

In addition to the full paper, the author should also submit:

A. Licence to Publish Agreement

Each contribution must be accompanied by a Springer Nature Licence to Publish agreement. Modified agreements are not acceptable. The corresponding author, who is also marked as such in the header of the paper, must sign the agreement on behalf of all of the authors of a particular paper, having gained their permission to do so. He or she signs and accepts responsibility for releasing the material on behalf of any and all co-authors.

B. Third-party permissions

As an author/editor of a work, you are responsible for overseeing the inclusion of third party content. By ‘third party content’ we mean any work that you have not created yourself and which you have reproduced or adapted from other sources. 

This document does not constitute legal advice. Authors remain fully responsible for ensuring that they have obtained, documented and paid for (when applicable), all necessary rights to use third party content in their works. If authors chose to reuse third party content from a previous edition of their work, they are also responsible for ensuring they obtained permission from the third party for new editions. Nothing in this document is to be understood as shifting responsibility for rights clearance questions from authors to Springer Nature. In case of uncertainty, authors should seek advice from a lawyer.

To obtain permission to use third-party material in the manuscript visit the Rights Holder website or Copyright Clearance Center Marketplace (CCC,https://marketplace.copyright.com/). If the material is not found, please exert your best efforts to use our Permissions Request Form and/or Release Request Form (to obtain permission from interviewees or other identifiable individuals or the owners of identifiable property in source material) for your request. If the rights-holder issues their own form, please ensure that the document they provide includes all Required Rights listed in the ‘Guide to Obtaining Permissions’ section in our Springer Nature Third Party Permissions Guidelines.

More details on gain of the third-party permissions, please visit.https://www.springernature.com/gp/policies/editorial-policies/third-party-permissions
A video on the permission by Springer Editor is available.  

All in all, for publication with Springer, the author should submit:

a. Full manuscript in WORD format
b. Signed and Scanned Licence to Publish Agreement
c. Third-party permission (if applicable, be presented in the form of research-permission template, research release template or CCC permission)

  Track 2: No publication

If you are not going to get your paper published, it will be collected and made available for delegates only online.

In this case, please submit your camera ready manuscript before July 31th, 2023.
