Shared Submission Policies

• Language: ICHEC 2026 accepts English submissions only.
• Submission portal: Papers and artworks should be submitted through EasyChair. Workshop proposals must be submitted through the dedicated Google Form.
• Originality: Submissions must not have been previously published and must not be under concurrent review by another conference or journal.
• Anonymity: Tracks that use blinded review require authors to remove identifying information from the paper and supplementary materials.
• Formatting: Paper submissions should use the single-column review format specified in the official submission instructions. Workshop proposals use the workshop proposal template: maximum 3 pages, excluding references, in English PDF format.
• Registration: At least one author or contributor of each accepted paper or artwork is expected to register and attend to present or exhibit. All workshop organizers and participants must register for both the workshop and the main conference; no additional workshop fee applies.

Generative AI and Academic Integrity

Authors are responsible for all submitted content. If generative AI tools are used for writing, polishing, analysis support, or other purposes beyond ordinary editing, authors should disclose the use appropriately. Generative AI tools should not be listed as authors.
