- Submit request to use SPMS with the JACoW Central Repository |
|
Send the required agreement email as show on the web page. Each conference chair must request permission to use the JACoW tools of the JACoW chair and/or coordinator, who will ask the relevant regional support center to set up the instance.
This request calls for the all important respect of the integrity of the data in SPMS concerning the profiles and affiliations, and the respect of JACoW's privacy policy in order not to inundate profile/account owners with unsolicited e-mails. |
|
|
|
- Set up initial parameters |
|
Some of this will be prefilled for you by the Regional Support Centre, but you should verify it. Your conference logo needs to be sent to your instance administrator to be placed on the server. This logo appears in all the web pages' upper right hand corner and will link to your conference website (set within the parameters). |
