ICSM 2010 calls for papers for oral and poster presentations. Those who wish to make a presentation are requested to submit an abstract online at the conference website by February 8, 2010, 12:00 JST (+09:00 GMT). Full and student participants are eligible for being a presenting author, and only presenting authors are allowed to sign up for abstract submissions. Multiple submissions from the same presenting author will not be accepted. Upon submission, please indicate a type of presentation you prefer from "Oral", "Poster" and "Either". The abstracts will be reviewed by the ICSM 2010 Program Committee, and will be assigned to Invited Lectures, Regular Oral Presentations and Poster Presentations. Even if you prefer an oral presentation, your paper may be assigned to a poster presentation due to scientific reasons and the capacity of oral presentations. A preliminary notification of the result (accepted / rejected) will be sent to the presenting author by e-mail in early March, and more detailed information (presentation type, date, etc.) will be notified in April, 2010. How to prepare oral and poster presentations will be announced on the website when the conference comes closer. No proceedings will be published for ICSM 2010.
