Submission

OpenReview website: https://openreview.net/group?id=acmmm.org/ACMMM/2022/Workshop/MMSports

Deadline: July 4th, 2022

Please refer to the main conference site for submission policies on blinding, originality, author lists and ArXiv publications.

Note: We prefer double-blind submissions to the workshop. But this is not enforced for the workshop. Thus, if double-blind submission is not possible, then this is fine, too.

Submitted papers may consist 4 to 8 pages. Up to two additional pages may be added for references. The reference pages must only contain references and are not counted to the page limit of 4 to 8 pages. Overlength papers will be rejected without review. Optionally, you may upload supplementary material that complements your submission (100Mb limit). There is no distinction between long and short papers, but the authors may themselves decide on the appropriate length of their paper. All papers will undergo the same review process and review period.

Publication

The accepted workshop papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to the published work.
