Selection Process

Based on the technical paper reviews, the Program Chair selects a shortlist of best paper candidates. These are discussed and reviewed by a selection committee drawn from the program committee. Membership on this selection committee is limited to those who have no conflict of interest with the shortlisted papers, as defined by the ACM SIGACCESS Conflict of Interest Policy.
