Four Types of Decision Results: Accepted, Conditionally Accepted, Awaiting Decision, and Reject

Accepted (or Accept):
The paper that satisfies our review standards receives an “Accept” notification. Congratulations! Please enhance the quality of the article and maximize clarity. Your proceedings paper should be submitted before September 15. Please remember that the Conference Registration and Fee Payment Deadline is September 15, 2018.

Conditionally Accepted (or Conditional Accept):
An author, who received a “Conditionally Accepted” notification, is required to revise the paper and resubmit a revised version by August 25^th so that the organizer can finish the review and notifies you the “Accept” Decision by September 1. The paper is accepted if the revisions have been made properly.
 
Evaluation is postponed (Awaiting Decision)
    Authors, who received an “Evaluation is postponed (Awaiting Decision)” notification, are requested to re-submit their revised paper before August 25^th so that the organizer can finish its review and notify you “Accept” Decision by September 1. The re-submission due date is August 15 for the paper that receives its first review results before July 20 (This gives you more than a three-week period for revising.).

 Some people request Deadline Extensions when the submission due date (June 10) is approaching. The conference organizer sometimes accepts an extension request from an individual. The extension period should be less than three weeks (July 28). Otherwise, the organizer may fall into trouble in developing the parallel session program in time. The program developing process includes a variety of time consuming tasks such as first reviewing, asking rewriting, reviewing revised papers and notifying “Accept” Decision (by September 1), requesting proceeding papers and registrations (before September 15), finishing the assignment of discussants and session chairs (by October 10), assigning presentation rooms, developing a final conference program and its printing, etc. Note that assigning proper discussants and session chairs is a very complicated task in addition to time-consuming. Passing through the all process takes approximately four months.
