Paper submission

Paper Submission

iiWAS accepts four different types of contributions:

  • Original theoretical work: The contributions are expected to show original work that provide foundations to further progress research in the area. Rigorous proofs and/or performance measurements are expected for this type of contribution.
  • Real life case study: The contributions are expected to show a real-life case study of an adopted concept and technology. The analysis of the case study should provide an original insight and findings, backing up by data collected from experiments and/or observation.
  • Experimental work: The contributions are expected to show reporting of rigorous comparative experiments of existing algorithms/systems to provide insight to the current state of the art in a research domain.
  • Lessons learnt reports: The contributions are expected to show lessons learnt from adoption of complex technology integration or implementation.
