Technical Papers
Technical papers should explore technical or regulatory topics that are substantiated by original research with documented references. Case studies should describe actual situations where actions, testing, or data accumulation are used to prove or demonstrate the outcome of applied methods and could be reasonably applied to other similar situations. Promotion of products or companies (commercialism) is prohibited. IIAR recognizes that new technologies are often offered by only one or a few companies. In these cases, it might be obvious that a method or technology is unique to a company. However, authors must strive to describe the method or technology based on a neutral analysis.
IIAR Technical Papers are peer reviewed technical documents which are professionally edited, published and distributed to IIAR Conference attendees at the show in which they are presented. After they are published, IIAR Technical Papers are made available through the IIAR eLibrary as a technical resource for the industry. IIAR offers one complimentary conference registration per technical paper to the primary author. The primary author of the highest rated technical paper presentation during the conference will receive the IIAR Award for Presentation Excellence.
Authors work as part of a team that includes IIAR staff, peer reviewers, professional editors, and layout and printing specialists. An important element of your commitment to authoring a technical paper is providing your draft and graphics in forms and styles that require the least amount of modification in preparation for printing the proceedings. It is also important that each author meet the deadline and for each draft. Your cooperation in meeting the draft deadlines using the guidelines, is crucial for your paper to appear in the conference proceedings.
