Author Guidelines and Policies
Post by: Heechul Yun, Sophie Quinton
If you want to contribute to SIGBED Blog, please contact us (email: blog@sigbed.org) with a brief description of the topic that you would like to write about.
SIGBED is concerned with embedded systems. Ideally, a blog post should be related to embedded systems or topics relevant to the embedded systems community, and this connection should be clear.
Example topics
- Opinion: Discussion of thought provoking ideas, visions, or controversial issues of interest to the embedded systems community.
- Conference/workshop report: Technical conference or workshop reports, community events on topics of general interest to the embedded systems audience
- Technical article: Summaries of interesting work (research, tools, benchmarks, etc), written for the general embedded systems audience.
- Others: If you have other potential topics to write, feel free to contact us.
Guidelines
- Blog posts should be short (300-1500 words) and to the point on a specific topic.
- Posts are meant to be informal, not like a conference or journal paper.
- Embed links to papers if you cite something, not as citations/bibliography as in papers.
- Posts are meant to cover the topic broadly, so please refrain from many self-citations.
- The title should be concise and descriptive of the post.
- Use (sub) headings as needed to make the content easy to read.
- Figures and videos are encouraged if available and appropriate.
- Permission must be obtained for any content that does not belong to the author.
- Links to externally published items are encouraged.
Policies
- The editor determines which proposed posts are published.
- The editor may consult with the SIGBED Executive Committee when evaluating if a proposed post should be published.
- Authors retain copyright to their content.
- Comments may be removed or disabled at the discretion of the editor at any time.
- Posts with inappropriate or offensive content as deemed by the editor will not be accepted.
Logistics and blog post process
- We will provide an account with which you can compose a draft for the blog.
- The editors will review your post and may ask editorial changes and other suggestions if needed.
