Additional Information for Accepted Papers

Review Process

Ethical Guidelines
Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, or plagiarism constitutes dishonesty or fraud. ARES prohibits these practices and may take action against authors who have committed them, including self-plagiarism. If you have questions about self-plagiarism, please contact us.

Double-Blind Review
ARES requires anonymized submissions. Ensure that submitted papers contain no author names or obvious self-references.
Attendance Requirement
Submission of a paper implies that, if accepted, at least one of the authors will register and present the paper at the conference.
Publication Data Sharing
Your EasyChair data (publication, name, affiliation, email address) will be forwarded to findresearch.org.
Preprints and Plagiarism Check
Publishing preprints to arXiv or other, open repositories is allowed prior to the notification of ARES and does not violate the requirement for novelty. However, authors should use a different title than the submission and they should avoid specifying that the work is under submission to ARES. Reviewers will be asked to not search for and ignore preprints that can deanonymize blinded submission.
IMPORTANT NOTE
To ensure originality, papers for ARES will be plagiarism checked. Self-plagiarism also counts as plagiarism. If you have questions about self-plagiarism or wish to opt-out of automatic checks, please contact ARES Conference Management.
ARES 2026 will be published by Springer in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
