Free Online Conference Service (EquinOCS)
Powerful conference paper submission and review system and expert technical support at no charge
Springer Nature offers EquinOCS, an online manuscript submission and review system for conference proceedings. Any conference for which proceedings are published with Springer Nature may now use EquinOCS - with technical support - free of charge.
The former version, OCS (Online Conference Service) successfully handled submissions and reviewing of papers in over 100 conferences, with thousands of users. With the experience gained from their feedback, the system was continuously improved and now satisfies the needs of all parties involved. Springer Nature's web-based EquinOCS manages publication committee organization and workflow in a smooth and logical fashion, backed by high-capacity servers built to handle hundreds of simultaneous operations reliably and securely.
EquinOCS dramatically simplifies the task of organizing review committees, and facilitates the movement of manuscripts through submission, reading, discussion, contracting, acceptance, revision and publication. Every increment of the process, from submission of papers to preparation of proceedings, is handled through the same intuitive interface. EquinOCS finely manages resources to deal with all requirements and stakeholders in a balanced way.
