Scopus Conference Publication Process: Step-by-Step Guide for Researchers


1. Discover Suitable Conferences

  • Identify events indexed by Scopus that align with your discipline and research focus

  • Compare conference scope, past proceedings, and acceptance rates

  • Use iConf.com to filter upcoming Scopus-indexed conferences by topic, date, and location


2. Prepare and Submit Your Abstract

  • Draft a concise abstract (150–250 words) highlighting the research problem, methodology, and key findings

  • Adhere to conference-specific formatting guidelines and word limits

  • Create an account on the conference portal or via iConf.com and upload your abstract before the deadline


3. Peer Review and Notification

  • Submitted abstracts undergo peer review by the conference committee

  • Review timelines typically range from 4 to 8 weeks

  • Upon acceptance, you will receive an official notification with instructions for full-paper submission


4. Develop the Full Paper

  • Expand your abstract into a full manuscript, following the IMRaD structure (Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion)

  • Use the conference’s template for page layout, citation style, and figure formatting

  • Solicit feedback from co-authors and mentors before finalizing


5. Submit the Full Manuscript

  • Upload your completed paper, ensuring all required files (PDF, source file, copyright form) are included

  • Confirm metadata accuracy: title, author names, affiliations, and keywords

  • Track submission status via the conference portal or iConf.com dashboard


6. Presentation and Camera-Ready Version

  • Register for the conference and prepare your presentation slides or poster

  • Deliver your talk or poster session on-site or virtually as required

  • Revise your manuscript into the camera-ready version, incorporating reviewer comments and final edits


7. Proceedings Publication and Scopus Indexing
