Abstract

ConfSys is a kaizen(continuous improvement) web-based conference management system. ConfSys3.5 is an upgrade version of ConfSys system, with additional features to facilitate the processes of academic conferences which involve authors, general chair, program chairs program committee and external reviewers and to provide conference services for these and other groups of users and participants. The lessons learned from using the earlier versions of ConfSys have been incorporated in Confsys3.5, which not only improved user interface for ConfSys' useful functions, such as more flexible event configuration, more user-friendly paper submission, paper registration integration, eProceedings, but also introduces new concepts, such as Auto Session Management and proceeding compilation in both pure PDF and PDF with a HTML navigation.
