Proceedings

All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series.

Review Criteria

Each submission must be identified as theoretical/Methodological research, applied research, or deployed application paper and will be reviewed using criteria appropriate to its category. The criteria are as follows:

Paper Category: Theoretical/Methodological research paper
Review Criteria: Scientific significance; originality; technical quality; and clarity

Paper Category: Applied research paper
Review Criteria: Significance for scientific research or innovative commercial deployment; originality; technical quality; and clarity
Paper Category: Deployed application paper
Review Criteria: Demonstrated practical, social, environmental or economic significance; originality; treatment of issues of engineering, management & user acceptance; and clarity.
Submission Format

Papers MUST be submitted as a single PDF file in Springer LNCS format, which is the format required for the final camera ready copy, with a maximum of 15 pages. Authors' instructions along with LaTeX and Word macro files are available on the web at Springer's Information for LNCS Authors page. Authors of accepted papers are required to transfer their copyrights to Springer. All submissions are required to be in electronic format.

Submission Procedure

Authors must submit a full paper by the conference paper submission deadline. ICCBR-10 is employing the EasyChair conference system, and submissions must be made via the ICCBR-10 Conference Submission Site.

Multiple Submission Policy

Papers submitted to other conferences or journals must state this fact. If a paper will appear in another conference or journal, it must be withdrawn from ICCBR-10. This restriction does not apply to papers appearing in proceedings of specialized workshops.

Author Registration Policy

In order for a paper to appear in the proceedings, at least one of the authors must register for the conference by the camera-ready copy deadline.
