How does the submission process work?
  1. To start the submission process, click on the "Submit" button if it is available. If it is not available, you need to wait until the next submission round opens.
  2. If you are not signed in yet, you are redirected to the login page where you can use your DOSA credentials to log in, reset your password, or register for a new DOSA account, if you do not have one yet. You can log in or register using the authentication menu with the user icon at the top of the page. If you are not signed in yet, you are redirected to sign in with your existing DOSA account. Click on "Register" to sign up with a new account.
  3. Enter the required basic data for your new proposal and click on "Create". All data entered here can also be changed later on.
  4. Fill in all required metadata.
    • Note that your input is continuously validated and saved. Invalid input, however, has to be fixed in order to have the latest changes saved again.
    • You do not have to complete your submission in one session. You can come back to wherever you left off at any time for as long as the deadlines allow. You can find your proposals under the menu item "My Proposals" at the top of the page.
    • While editing the metadata, the current submission status, e.g. "Metadata-Ready", "Camera-Ready", is continuously updated and displayed.
  5. All proposals with metadata completed by the appropriate deadline will be considered by Dagstuhl's staff. You may check the metadata and the submission status of your proposal at any time in the "Show" view.
  6. For finalizing your camera-ready proposal, please upload the proposal text, all organizer CVs, and the list of invitees.
  7. All camera-ready proposals will be reviewed by Dagstuhl's Scientific Directorate. Review decisions are communicated via email. Status information within DOSA only applies to the submission phase.
