They are shorter (3000-6000 words) and meant to describe smaller, more focused research findings or research that is still in progress. Both of these paper types undergo a rigorous peer-review process and will be archived in the <a href=\"https:\/\/idl.iscram.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ISCRAM digital library<\/a>.

Therefore, in our Track 17 &#8211; Practitioner Track, we ask practitioners to submit proposals for talks and presentations that foster discussions between practitioners and academics or that provide interesting insights from the practitioners&#8217; point of view. Nevertheless, a full-length paper is not required &#8211; only a short abstract describing the idea should be submitted. <a href=\"https:\/\/iscram2024.ercis.org\/index.php\/call-for-submissions\/call-for-practitioner-talks\/\">More information about the Call for Practitioner Talks here<\/a>.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlight-container\">\n<div class=\"faq-question\">\n<em>Is it allowed to use generative AI software tools (such as ChatGPT) when writing my paper?<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-answer\">\nISCRAM 2024 follows the generative AI policy of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), which states that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you are using generative AI software tools such as ChatGPT, Jasper, AI-Writer, Lex, or other similar tools to generate new content such as text, images, tables, code, etc. you must disclose their use in either the acknowledgements section of the Work or elsewhere in the Work prominently. The level of disclosure should be commensurate with the proportion of new text or content generated by these tools.<\/li>\n<li>If entire sections of a Work, including tables, graphs, images, and other content were generated by one of these tools, you should disclose which sections and which tools and tool versions you used to generate those sections by preparing an Appendix or a Supplementary Material document that describes the use, including but not limited to the specific tools and versions, the text of the prompts provided as input, and any post-generation editing (such as rephrasing the generated text). Authors should also note that the amount or type of generated text allowable may vary depending on the type of the section or paper affected. For example, using such tools to generate portions of a Related Work section is fundamentally different than generating novel results or interpretations.<\/li>\n<li>If the amount of text being generated is small (limited to phrases or sentences), then it would be sufficient to add a footnote to the relevant section of the submission utilizing the system(s) and include a general disclaimer in the Acknowledgements section.<\/li>\n<li>If you are using generative AI software tools to edit and improve the quality of your existing text in much the same way you would use a typing assistant like Grammarly to improve spelling, grammar, punctuation, clarity, engagement or to use a basic word processing system to correct spelling or grammar, it is not necessary to disclose such usage of these tools in your Work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>(Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acm.org\/publications\/policies\/frequently-asked-questions\" >https:\/\/www.acm.org\/publications\/policies\/frequently-asked-questions<\/a>)\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlight-container\">\n<div class=\"faq-question\">\n<em>Where can I find more information about the APA-style for references, e.g., how to cite online resources?<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-answer\">\nPlease take a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/apastyle.apa.org\/style-grammar-guidelines\/references\/examples\">the APA-style guidelines and examples<\/a>.
