After the registration by Springer OCS, the authors can proceed to submit their contribution, as a chapter to appear in the biennial edited book in the series Advances in Cognitive Neurodynamics, edited by Professor Rubin Wang. For each paper undergoing a review process at ICCN, there has to be an abstract submitted first. In a second step (or immediately afterward) the upload of a manuscript file is necessary, if the authors intend to submit a chapter in the edited book.

After submitting the abstract, it is viewable in the paper list, where additional actions like editing the title or uploading a paper document can be selected.
