Enable ACM Call for Participation
ACM conference Chairs need to fill out the following on the Conference Details page to show call for participation instruction.
ORCID and City Information
CMT worked with ACM to implement the new requirement of collecting authors’ City and ORCID in eRights XML.
Both City and ORCID are now required from ALL authors during camera-ready submission.
- If authors have entered ORCID in their CMT account profile, their ORCID will be automatically populated on camera-ready submission form for their papers. For those who do not have ORCID in their profile, persons submitting camera-ready paper will need to enter on their behalf.
- City is not part of CMT user profile. Persons submitting camera-ready paper will need to enter City for all co-authors including themselves.
