In keeping with the theme of best of practice we encourage submissions in the following areas:

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS:
Original submissions are invited for full papers, concise papers, posters, workshops and software demonstrations. Papers are to be submitted to the website http://site.tekotago.ac.nz/naccq

Full papers are double blind refereed on submission by a review panel and accepted/modified/rejected. The editorial panel reviews final versions of the paper. Papers may be rejected at that point.

Concise papers are a maximum of 2000 words, and no more than four formatted pages (all inclusive). Papers are selected by blind review on submitted proposal and editorially reviewed on completion. Papers may be rejected at that point.

Workshops
Workshops are intended to enhance the skills and broaden the perspective of their attendees. They should be designed to introduce a new area or to provide advanced technical training in an area.
