How CMS works

The platform covers the full conference lifecycle — proposal, call for papers, submission, double-blind peer review, decisions, camera-ready, payments, and publication. Pick your role below to see what to do.

rocket_launchGetting Started

check_circle

Create an account

Register with your academic email at Sign Up, or accept an email invitation if a chair or organiser invited you. Google Sign-In is also supported.

check_circle

Find a conference

Browse open calls under Conferences. Each conference page lists tracks, deadlines, fees, submission guidelines, and links to the official website and Call for Papers.

check_circle

Direct submission links

Conferences share a direct link of the form /c/<conference-id>. Opening it takes you straight to the submission form for that conference — after signing in, if needed. The login page shows the conference name and logo so you know you are in the right place.

Submit a paper

Dashboard → Submit Paper opens a guided wizard: choose the conference and track, enter title/abstract/keywords, add co-authors, upload your PDF (max 20 MB), and confirm. You are the corresponding author by default.

check_circle

Track review progress

My Submissions shows the live status of every manuscript — under review, revision requested, accepted, or rejected. You are notified in-app and by email at every transition.

check_circle

After acceptance

Pay the registration fee from your dashboard, upload the camera-ready version before its deadline, and download your certificate once the conference concludes.

rate_reviewFor Reviewers

check_circle

Get assignments

Track chairs assign papers to you, or you can bid on papers in your area when bidding is open. Declare any conflict of interest before accepting.

check_circle

Write reviews

Reviews are double-blind by default and use a structured scoring form — originality, quality, clarity, relevance — plus a recommendation and confidential comments to the chair.

check_circle

Deadlines & extensions

Your dashboard shows all review deadlines. If you need more time, request a deadline extension from the assignment view.

account_treeFor Track Chairs & Meta Reviewers

check_circle

Run your track

Monitor submissions in your track, check plagiarism/similarity reports, and assign reviewers from the pool or by invitation.

check_circle

Drive decisions

Once reviews are in, the decision engine synthesises scores and meta-reviews into an accept/reject recommendation. Record the decision and authors are notified automatically.

check_circle

Quality oversight

Meta reviewers resolve score discrepancies and write synthesis reviews; TPC members monitor conference-wide progress dashboards.

event_availableFor Organisers

check_circle

Request a conference

Dashboard → New Conference Request walks you through basics (title, venue, dates, logo, website, Call for Papers link), tracks, deadlines, budget, and fees. Platform admins review requests within 3–5 business days.

check_circle

Promote your CFP

Every conference gets a public page and a direct submission link (/c/<conference-id>) you can embed in your Call for Papers, emails, and social posts — authors land directly on the submission form, with your conference logo shown at sign-in.

check_circle

Operate the cycle

Manage tracks and deadlines, invite chairs and reviewers, watch venue health dashboards, and archive proceedings when the conference completes.
