The 2027 ASCI Conference CMT submission link: Submit through Microsoft CMT

All authors must have a valid CMT account. Authors who already have a CMT account should use their existing account. New users should create and verify a CMT account before beginning a submission. Creating a CMT account does not by itself constitute registration for the conference.

Submission Requirements

• Abstracts and presentation information should be provided in English.
• Each submission should include the presentation title, author names, affiliations, contact information, and the designated presenting author.
• Authors should select the conference topic that best matches their submission.
• One-person-one-presentation rule: Each individual may be designated as the presenting author for no more than one presentation at the conference. Any exception requires prior approval from the Conference Committee.

Invited Presentations

Authors invited by a session chair should use the invited-presentation track in CMT.

Contributed Presentations

Authors who are not part of an invited session should use the contributed-presentation track in CMT. The presenting author should be identified as the primary contact.

Submitting the Same Work to the Best Student Paper Competition

Authors who wish to enter the same work in the Best Student Paper Competition must create a separate submission in that track. Because CMT requires submission titles to be unique within the conference, add “(Best Student Paper Competition)” to the title of the competition submission. The authors, abstract, and manuscript may otherwise remain unchanged.

How to Submit

1. Open the conference CMT submission link shown above.
2. Sign in with an existing CMT account or create and verify a new account.
3. Open the Author Console and select the option to create a new submission.
4. Select the appropriate invited or contributed presentation track.
5. Enter the requested presentation and author information, designate the presenting author as the primary contact, and upload any required file.
6. Review the submission carefully and submit it before the deadline. Authors should retain the CMT submission confirmation for their records.

Acceptance decisions and presentation details will be communicated to the primary contact. The notification date is listed on the Important Dates page.
