Requirements for Research-in-progress Papers (RiP)
Research-in-progress papers typically describe work that is as yet incomplete, but promising. Accepted RiP papers will appear in the ECIS2019 Proceedings. Authors of accepted RiP papers will be required to bring poster-size presentations for display at their poster session. Additional information on poster preparation and presentation will be forthcoming.
