3. Submission of Full Papers
For submission of your final paper, please edit your abstract submission on EasyChair by adding an anonymous pdf document of your paper before 20 September 2020 AOE at the SACAIR Easychair link below.
- During abstract submission you will be requested to enter keywords as well as one of the SACAIR conference topics, and this information can be update by editing submission information on EasyChair.

6. Proceedings
Proceedings with all accepted papers for SACAIR will be available online on the SACAIR website when SACAIR commences. After the conference, a selection of the best accepted papers will appear in a volume of Springer LNCS CCIS. Once the LNCS CCIS volume has been published, the SACAIR Conference proceedings will be finalized with the accepted papers that were not selected for CCIS, and the abstracts of the CCIS papers that will include references to the published CCIS versions of the papers.
