HICSS papers emphasize advances in research and development activities in several areas of the system sciences. Papers may be theoretical, conceptual, tutorial, or descriptive in nature.

• All papers must be submitted to a minitrack. Minitracks are part of our10 larger tracks. Make sure you understand the focus of a minitrack before submitting your paper to ensure you are submitting to the best possible fit for your research.

• HICSS papers must contain original material. They may not be previously published, nor currently submitted elsewhere. You may contact the Minitrack Chair(s) or Track Chair for guidance or verification of content. If you are not sure of the appropriate Minitrack, submit a preliminary abstract to the Minitrack Chair(s) or Track Chair via email for determination.

• Submit a paper to only one Minitrack. Submissions to more than one minitrack may result in rejection by either minitrack without consultation with author.

• Do not author or co-author more than 5 papers.

Acceptance is based on a strict peer review in a double-blind process from June through August of each year. After a careful review by a special committee in each track, Best Paper Awards are presented to the selected paper from each track in recognition of their superior research performance.
