Step 1. Download the Licence to Publish Proceedings Form – PPF (copyright form)

  • For all manuscripts in the ICDSE 2026 Proceedings, authors must download the Licence to Publish Proceedings Form (PPF) [link] must be submitted by the corresponding author.

Step 2. Prepare Your Final Manuscript

  • The camera-ready versions should not exceed the page limit of 8 pages in length (A maximum of 2 extra pages is allowed beyond 8 pages, with extra fee). The authors must prepare papers strictly following the Springer templates and the ICDSE 2026 guide.
  • All papers must adequately address reviewers’ feedback and revise potential paragraphs and sentences for plagiarism.
  • For using third-party material in the manuscript, authors must visit the Rights Holder website or Copyright Clearance Center Marketplace [https://marketplace.copyright.com/]. If the material is not found, please exert your best efforts to use our Permissions Request Form [Click here for the PRF form] and/or Release Request Form [Click here for the RRF form] (to obtain permission from interviewees or other identifiable individuals or the owners of identifiable property in the source material) for your request.
