KR 2024 Proceedings Submission

Camera ready versions of the 21st International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning accepted papers will be processed through the KR proceedings submission system at https://kr.proceedings.confdna.com.

Our editorial staff will ensure that your KR paper satisfies several guidelines such as proceedings uniformity, PDF/A standardization, rich metadata and DOI registration/assignment, all while ensuring a high quality of the final outcome.

Accepted papers' contact authors must login at https://kr.proceedings.confdna.com and fulfill a series of steps per accepted paper before their deadline date. The steps are as follows:

Copyright Agreement

KR must acquire proper copyright on your paper to publish it. The contact author must download the copyright assignment form and fill, print, sign, scan it and upload it in this step.

Paper Upload

Papers are already uploaded to the site.

If your paper is in a not valid state, remember that the paper must follow the formatting guidelines specified in the KR 2024 Formatting guidelines help package. Please use the included LaTeX/Word templates or make sure to adapt your sources to follow the same style.

Paper Sources

KR also requires authors to upload the sources used to build the paper. The accepted formats are LaTeX or MS Word.

LaTeX sources will be uploaded as single .zip package containing all source files, figures and necessary style files. The package should contain everything necessary to build the camera-ready PDF, and should compile once unarchived, without having to update any file routes nor hardcoded information in the sources.

MS Word files can be uploaded in .docx format, following the template included in the KR 2024 Formatting guidelines help package.

Metadata

We require the authors validate the metadata that was initially provided during the peer-review submission. The metadata collected here will be used to fill your PDF's metadata as well as to register a DOI for your paper. Notice that most search engines and archives use that metadata to find and index papers: proper formatting and information here will help make your paper more visible!

Paper Submission

Once all required information is filled in, you will be able to submit your paper for review. At this point, our editorial staff will review your paper to ensure that all information is correct, your paper looks great and that the PDF can be properly visualized on most devices.

Editorial Feedback

After our editors have finished reviewing your paper, you will receive and e-mail with the review feedback. At this point it may be necessary for you to make some amendments to improve its presentation quality and/or fit within KR 2024's proceedings.

Submission Finished

At this point your paper is ready for publication. Congratulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long can my paper be?

For the Main Conference track and additional tracks/sessions (except for the Recent Published Research Track) we accept two different types of papers:

  • Full papers of up to 9.5 content pages (which include the abstract, figures, and appendices if any), but excluding references and acknowledgements.
  • Short papers of up to 4.5 pages, excluding references and acknowledgements.
  • I want to add/remove/replace an author. How can I do so?

    You cannot. KR 2024's policy is that the set of authors must be the same as those submitting the paper.

    This is a strict policy that applies in all cases.

    Is it possible to correct misspelled author names?

    Yes, contact us at kr.proceedings@confdna.com and we will get any misspellings fixed. Do not forget to tell us your paper number and the corrections required!

    Where I can find the style guidelines for my paper?

    See the "paper upload" and "paper sources" sections above.

    What are the requirements to access to the proceedings system?

    You need a modern browser with javascript enabled. The system has been thoroughly tested with both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.
