The Online Conference Service (OCS) is a personalized conference management system. It helps Program Committee chairs, Program Committee members, reviewers, and authors cooperate efficiently during their collaborative preparation of conference proceedings.
OCS is customizable and flexibly reconfigurable online at any time for each role, for each conference, and for each user. The service has been successfully used for about 200 computer science conferences.
For more information, or to set up a demo OCS session, please contact ocs_support@springer.com.
As volume editor, please ensure that you have advised all authors about our author guidelines, and please take the time to read them yourself.
