3. ImportantTips for Verification
Beforesubmitting, always perform these checks to avoid "predatory"conferences:
- Check Previous Years: Look up the conference's 2024 or 2025 proceedings in the EI Compendex or Scopus database. If the previous years are indexed, the 2026 edition is highly likely to be as well.
- Verify the Organizer: Flagship events are organized by societies like IEEE, ACM, ASME, ASCE, or AIChE. Specialized events should ideally be sponsored by a university or a recognized technical institute.
- Official Website: Ensure you are on the official domain (e.g., ending in .org or hosted on a university/society subdomain). Avoid generic sites that list hundreds of unrelated conferences.
