# Submission

Submissions to JIST-KG 2020 should describe original, significant 
research on Knowledge Graphs. JIST-KG 2020 will not accept submissions 
that are under review for or have already been published or accepted for 
publication in a journal or another conference (*).

(*) Non peer-reviewed documents such as theses, technical reports, 
publications on preprint server (e.g. arXiv.org) are not considered 
prior publications. In such cases, JIST-KG 2020 authors are not 
precluded from submitting papers on the same topic by the same authors.

Submissions to JIST-KG 2020 are expected to present their claimed 
research contribution, with clear evidence to support their claims.

All submissions will be critically reviewed by at least three members of 
the Program Committee of the Research Track. To assess submissions, 
reviewers will judge their relevance to the conference, their 
originality, technical soundness and depth of their proposed approach, 
and the readability of the submission.

JIST-KG 2020 submissions are not anonymous.

Submissions must be in PDF format, using the style of the Springer 
Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). 
Regular paper submissions must be no longer than 16 pages, and short 
paper submissions must be no longer than 8 pages. Submissions that 
exceed this limit may be rejected without review. Accepted papers will 
be published in a Springer LNCS proceedings. At least one author of each 
accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper there.

Papers can be submitted electronically via EasyChair 
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jistkg2020).


# Journal Special Issue

A number of the best papers accepted to JIST-KG 2020 will be recommended 
to a Special Issue of the Journal of Big Data Research (SCI/ISI/JCR 
indexed; 2018 IF: 2.952), based on quality, relevance and originality.
