Hybrid conference:

Q: What is a Hybrid Conference?

A hybrid conference is an event that combines both in-person and virtual elements, allowing participants to engage either face-to-face at a physical location or remotely through digital platforms. This format offers flexibility, accommodating those who can attend in person while also including those who, due to geographical, health, or other constraints, prefer or need to participate online. As a result, hybrid conferences can reach a wider audience and provide diverse ways of interaction, merging the traditional conference experience with the advantages of digital accessibility.

 

Q:Is the conference of this year going to be held online or in person?

The conference this year is going to be held in a hybrid format, meaning both online and in-person options will be available for participants. Attendees can choose to either join face-to-face at the physical location or remotely through digital platforms.

 

Q:Where will the venue of the conference be for in-person presentations?

The venue for in-person presentations at the conference will be at Alanya University, Alanya, Antalya, Turkey.

 

Q:Will this year’s conference be held just online via Zoom or face-to-face in Istanbul?

The conference will be in a hybrid model, which means both options will be available. You can decide to come to the conference to give your presentation face-to-face, or you will have also a chance to deliver your presentation online.  

 

Q: Is there a preferred topic and duration for the conference?

Please find the conference scope and Sub-Sessions from here: https://iccaua.com/page/home

 

Q:What is the difference between an In-person presentation and an online presentation at a conference?

In-person and online presentations at a conference differ in several key ways:

  1. Location: In-person presentations take place at a physical conference venue, while online presentations are held over the Internet using platforms like Zoom.
  2. Accessibility: Online presentations can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, making them more accessible to a wider audience. In-person presentations are limited to the conference venue and attendees who are physically present.
  3. Technology: Online presentations often require the use of technology, such as laptops, cameras, and microphones. In-person presentations may also require technology, such as a projector and sound system, but these are typically provided by the conference venue.
  4. Cost: Attending an in-person conference can be more expensive due to the cost of travel, accommodation, and registration fees. Online conferences may be more affordable or even free, as attendees do not have to bear the cost of travel and accommodation.

Both in-person and online presentations have their own unique advantages and disadvantages, and the best format depends on the goals of the conference, the preferences of the attendees, and the budget and resources available.

 

Suggested journals after the conference:

Q: If we decline to submit the paper to the suggested journal, will it still be included in the conference proceedings?

By choosing not to publish in the suggested journal, your paper will be automatically published in the conference's full book proceedings of the conference also ICCAUA conference's journal proceedings. See the journal of the conference from here

 

Q: If your committee chooses our article for publication in a book chapter or any of your sponsored journals, would I be allowed to change the journal to my preferred journal?"

Unfortunately, no. The reason your article was selected for a specific journal or book chapter is that the editor of that particular publication expressed interest in your article. As a result, we cannot alter the decision and change the journal name.

 

Q: If the publication is rejected by the journal, what will be the fate of our written paper?  If your paper is rejected (with a probability of 4 percent, as per our experience), it will be automatically published in both the conference's full book proceedings and also ICCAUA conference's journal proceedings. See the journal of the conference from here

 

Q: After the full texts, we have sent are published as Proceedings, how will they be published in the specified journals?

Till the conference day, we will just publish the conference Abstract book proceedings. A day after the conference editors will select the articles for their own journals ( it may take two weeks) then we will publish the remaining full papers of the conference in the conference's full book proceedings. This is the best professional strategy to publish articles in scientific journals. 

 

Q: I was wondering if I agree to accept my paper to be reviewed and published in the journal of X and withdraw it from publishing in the conference proceedings book, will there be any chance my paper be rejected after their 'reviewing process'?

if you agree to accept your paper to be reviewed and published in our journal and subsequently withdraw it from publishing in the conference proceedings book, the chances of your paper being rejected after our reviewing process in the journal are very low. Our reviewing process is designed to ensure quality and relevance, and once your paper has been accepted, it is highly likely to be published in our journal. However, in the unlikely event that your paper does not meet the specific criteria or guidelines during our reviewing process, and if we are unable to proceed with its publication in our journal, we will make sure that your article is included in the conference full book proceedings as originally planned.

 

Q:  If I wish to choose for publication of my paper with one of the publishing partners (Journal)  that you have mentioned on the conference website, then what is the process?

If you wish to opt for publication of your paper with one of the publishing partners mentioned on the conference website, the process typically involves a few steps based on the provided information:

  1. Submission and Review: Initially, your paper would undergo a review process. This could either be directly through the conference's arrangement with its publishing partners or through your independent submission to the suggested journal, depending on the specific protocols of the conference.
  2. Editorial Interest: The decision to publish your paper in a specific journal or as a book chapter is influenced by the interest expressed by the editor of that publication. If your committee chooses your article for publication in one of the sponsored journals or as a book chapter, it indicates that the editor found your work aligning with their publication's scope.
  3. Fixed Publication Outlet: Once your paper is selected for a particular journal or book chapter, you would not be able to change the publication outlet to a preferred journal. This decision is based on the editorial interest and alignment with the publication's scope.
  4. Proceedings Inclusion: If you agree to have your paper reviewed for publication in the designated journal and decide to withdraw it from the conference proceedings book, it will undergo a reviewing process. The likelihood of rejection after this process is very low, given the designed quality and relevance checks. However, in the rare event that your paper is not published in the journal due to not meeting specific criteria or guidelines during the review process, it will be included in the conference's full book proceedings.
  5. Automatic Inclusion in Proceedings: If, for any reason, your paper is not published in the chosen journal (with a stated low probability of rejection), it will automatically be included in both the conference's full book proceedings and the ICCAUA conference's journal proceedings.

 

Q: If I select to go for one of the publishing partners (Journals or book chapters), then what is the paper publication in the conference proceedings handled?


If you opt to publish your paper with one of the conference's publishing partners and withdraw it from the conference's full book proceedings, a form will be sent to you to confirm and accept this exclusion. In this case, your paper will undergo a review process for publication in the chosen journal or book chapter, and upon acceptance, it will not be included in the conference's full book proceedings, as your agreement to the exclusion will be confirmed through the form you receive and submit.

 

Registration

Q:Time to finalize the registration process: According to the policy of our conference you can register directly as soon as you receive your preliminary acceptance letter.

 

Q: I received my preliminary acceptance letter, should i wait until the final acceptance of my full  paper to register? Or i can register online now?

Full paper evaluations and any necessary communications will follow during the proceeding’s publication phase.

 

Q: Can I be informed about my full paper's acceptance or rejection before paying the conference registration fees due to financial constraints? I have just received acceptance letter for my abstract not for full paper.

Like other international conferences, our selection process is grounded in a preliminary review and acceptance of abstracts. This means that if your abstract has been reviewed and you have received a preliminary acceptance letter for your abstract, you are eligible to proceed with the conference registration. This preliminary acceptance is a significant indicator of the interest and potential fit of your contribution within the conference scope and themes.

Following this, we are committed to ensuring the publication of your full paper. Should there be any unforeseen issues arising during the publication process, rest assured that we will communicate with you promptly to resolve these matters.

During the publication of the full book proceedings, we will let you know if there is any other problem to solve.

 

Q: We are 3 authors and all of us would like to join in person in the conference so do we pay for the registration once or each separately? Or is there a separate “visitor ticket”?

You may need to register just one time per each manuscript ID. The number of authors does not affect the registration fee. Just be aware that from our organization's point of view to hold the conference smoothly with this one registration fee there will be a possibility for one person from your team to participate face-to-face during the conference day (there is no limit for online participation).

Q: I made an error when entering my co-authors' names during the submission process. Is there a way for me to correct this information at this point?

Kindly update your abstract as desired and return it to me. I'll ensure it replaces the earlier version you provided.

General Questions:

Q: My level of English is very average, it will be possible for me to do the text and the 10 min video, but is it possible to have someone for the translation (English/French or Arabic) during face-to-face discussions? Because I may find it difficult to clearly express my answers to any questions on the day of the conference.

Yes, if it is an online presentation, you will have a chance to bring a translator to support you online during the meeting. But if you would like to participate face-to-face in our conference venue you may need to register your translator as an extra participant. The reason is that per each article one author is allowed to present in the venue. For the other coauthors or guests, you may need to register them as normal participants.

 

Q: Is there any support (housing) for the participants by the organizer of the conference?

No, at this moment we are not providing accommodation for the authors. But we will be able to let you know some hotels with convenient prices.

 

Q: How will you broadcast this (online) event? Is it publicly accessible or only for attendees?

Some journals have a publication fee, but others do not. Please check the journal's website directly to be sure about the publication fee.

We typically accept full papers until the day of the conference. However, should you need more time, inform us and we might extend your deadline up to two weeks after the event. If you can't submit by the conference day, you can still present your ideas. For submissions beyond the two-week extension, we can reserve a spot for you in our next conference and include your study there free of charge, considering your fee has been paid.

 

Q:  I'm not an academic, can I still submit my paper for consideration?

Absolutely, non-academics are encouraged to submit their papers for consideration. Given the multidisciplinary nature of this conference, your professional experience in architecture and urbanism is highly valued. We believe that insights from expert architects and urban designers actively working in the field are invaluable. Sharing your real-world experiences provides a crucial perspective and helps bridge the gap between academic research and practical application, ensuring that academicians stay informed about current industry practices and innovations.

 

Q: Does the conference accept panel proposals focused on specific themes?

Upon receiving the acceptance notification for your abstract, you are welcome to proceed with the submission of your full paper by adhering to the specified deadline and submission guidelines outlined on the conference website.

You have the option to present your research based solely on your abstract; however, if you choose to submit your full paper, it will be published in the conference proceedings and also in the conference's journal.

Your paper can include up to eight co-authors. The decision on the number of co-authors should be based on the research's quality and the methodology employed.

 

Q: We are three people in one article. Should the two co-authors proceed with the in-person registration, and other third co-author move forward with the online participation mode? Or is there any other process? Will it affect the certificate and participation?

According to both national and international guidelines, it is permissible for one author to attend the conference and present the paper on behalf of all co-authors. This arrangement will not affect the issuance of certificates; authors will receive the same certificate of presentation and participation.  

 

Q: Do all full papers get published in the Conference Proceedings Full Book with a DOI number? Or only the selected ones will be published?

All accepted articles for the conference will be published in the Conference Proceedings Full Book and in the Journal dedicated to conference proceedings, each assigned a DOI number. However, should any of the journal's other sponsors opt to publish your article in their journal, we will consult you about excluding your article from the Conference Proceedings Full Book to facilitate its publication elsewhere. If you consent, we will proceed with the exclusion; if not, we will honor our commitment to publish your work in both the Conference Proceedings Full Book and the conference's proceedings journal.

Q: Can you support visa issuance?

Our role is limited to providing an official invitation letter for the conference. This letter can be used as part of your visa application process. The responsibility of applying for and obtaining the necessary visa rests with the participants. We recommend starting this process early to allow ample time for any potential delays or additional requirements that may arise from your local embassy or consulate.

  

Q: Can you please show me the proceedings of the previous conferences showing the publication of the index of Scopus?

  While we ensure the highest academic standards and visibility for our published papers, we have not stated that all accepted articles published in the conference proceedings will be indexed in Scopus. We have selected some articles (20 percent) for our sponsored Scopus-indexed journals (as stated in the list of the journals in the publication opportunity) and they have already published them with a specific review process.  

Q: Is possible to change the type of presentation from in person presentation to an on line presentation ?
