How to submit your application for contributing to the ITS World Congress 2021 in Hamburg
There are various ways to be represented at the ITS World Congress 2021 in Hamburg with your own content contribution. We welcome submissions in the form of technical or research papers, your own sessions, or business presentations. All submitted papers and session proposals must be sorted into one of the four categories below, and a selection of keywords will assign your submission to one of the four categories listed below during the submission process.
New deadline for all submissions is February 12, 2021.The European Programme Committee will then select the contributions that will be part of the ITS program from all submissions by March 31, 2021. Please note that only the submission portal, as described below, can be used to submit a paper, session, or presentation.
Technical papers describe work that confirms the state-of-the-art while demonstrating originality. They might describe the implementation of a new solution that improves practice and which others can learn from, or the outcomes of practical work, trials, demonstrations, or pilots. They are also good showcases of government/industry partnerships in adopting innovative technologies.
Research papers describe work that leads to new learning and advances the state-of-the-art by adding something new or addressing a known weakness. They are expected to show scholarship, innovation, and analysis of new types of problems and/or solutions rather than different approaches to areas that have already been researched.
Session proposals proposed by any interested party developing and deploying ITS, these sessions provide the opportunity to focus on specific topics of interest and can be freely formatted as discussion panels, standard sessions, or special types of workshops. Instead of mere project presentations, these should present coherent storylines contributing to the conference themes.
Business presentations describe a service aimed at generating or improving a specific product, device, or idea for the market. The presentation should not solely promote the company or product, but it should also elaborate on the overall Congress theme. Promotional brochures will not be accepted.
