SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
====================================================
Authors are required to submit their papers in English. DaWaK will accept submissions of both SHORT (up to 6 pages, for research papers only) and FULL papers (up to 15 pages), including references and appendixes. DaWaK reserves the right to accept as short papers those papers (originally submitted as full) that represent innovative ideas but that still need further development (this decision will be based on reviews).

Any submission that exceeds the allowed length or deviates from formatting requirements will be desk rejected.

Authors should consult Springer's authors' instructions at:
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings
and use the proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word. Notice that
LaTeX is STRONGLY recommended.
Submission site: https://dawak2025.iiwas.org

REVIEW PROCESS
====================================================
Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity. Duplicate submissions are not allowed and will be desk rejected.

Authors are expected to agree on the following terms: "I understand that the submission must not overlap substantially with any other paper that I am a co-author of or that is currently submitted elsewhere. Furthermore, previously published papers with any overlap are cited prominently in this submission."

Questions about this policy or how it applies to a specific paper should be directed to the PC Co-chairs.
