Submission Instructions

Instruction for Preparing the Final Version of Accepted Manuscripts

All submissions must be in English, and must be submitted in Microsoft Word or PDF via the workshop online submission system at http://cswim2008.ecom.arizona.edu. Length of submissions, including all contents, is limited to 5 single-spaced, 8.5" by 11" pages with Times New Roman, 12-point font, and 1" margins on all sides. Violation of the format may result in the rejection of the submission without review. More specific submission instructions will be available at the workshop website.

All submissions will be reviewed double blind. Selection for presentation at the workshop will be based on originality, contribution to the field, and workshop interest. An important criterion in evaluating the submission is the preference for a problem-driven approach, i.e., papers that focus on pure technical issues but are not clearly relevant to solving business problems are less likely to be accepted. Extended abstracts of presentations will be published at the workshop website.

Arrangements are being made to fast-track extended versions of selected papers in academic journals including Electronic Commerce Research and Applications (SCI-indexed), Journal of Information Systems and eBusiness, and Journal of Internet Banking and Commerce.
