From proposal to publication.

One governed conference system — every manuscript visible, every role scoped, every privileged action audited.

Governed conference lifecycle — proposals rise through review into publication

Lifecycle

Proposal to archive — one governed spine.

Every manuscript stays visible. Every privileged action stays audited. Step through the conference cycle the platform actually runs.

STAGE 01 / 09

Proposal

Organisers submit a structured conference request — basics, tracks, deadlines, budget — into an approval queue.

  • Multi-step conference request
  • Super Admin approval queue
  • Direct create with tracks when authorised

    Conference lifecycle stages

Roles

Seven scoped operators.

Conference-scoped RBAC — a user can be Reviewer in one venue and Track Chair in another. Privileged scope re-resolves from the database on each request.

Select a role

Researcher

Submit manuscripts, track review, manage revisions, pay fees, download certificates.

Scope

Own submissions only

Journey

Register or accept invite → profile → browse open calls → wizard → track status → revision → decision → pay → camera-ready → certificate.

Capabilities

What the platform actually ships.

  • Submission

    Six-step wizard with drafts, author lookup, PDF validation, and replace-after-submit.

  • Review

    Double-blind modes, structured scoring, COI gating, bidding, and review history.

  • Payments

    Registration fees with bKash / SSLCommerz, mark-paid flows, and reconciliation.

  • Certificates

    Acceptance, presentation, publication, review, and meta-review certificates.

  • DOI & citation

    Archival carries DOI/citation metadata with proceedings bundling.

  • Publication

    Proceedings generation from the accepted set — publisher-ready close-out.

  • Email & Send Center

    Transactional SMTP plus console broadcasts, templates, and communication logs.

  • Reports

    Track and platform reports, reviewer workload views, and exports.

  • Analytics

    Dashboards for chairs and admins — real aggregates only, never invented KPIs here.

  • AI assistance

    Optional ML: similarity risk levels, track suggestion, and analytics sidecars.

Automation

Optional ML — assist, never invent proof.

Similarity, track suggestion, and analytics ride as a FastAPI sidecar. Core governance does not depend on them.

  • Similarity detection

    Risk levels (Low / Medium / High) from the ML sidecar.

  • Track suggestion

    Assist chairs when routing manuscripts to the right track.

  • Metadata validation

    Server-side validation on every wizard step.

  • Reviewer assignment aids

    Pool, invite, and bulk assign with COI checks.

  • Deadline extensions

    Request, approve, reject, or modify extension days.

  • Notifications

    Targeted in-app and email per user, role, and conference.

Security

Three enforcement layers. Full audit trail.

  • RBAC

    Seven conference-scoped roles plus Platform Owner on cms-ops.

  • Three enforcement layers

    Edge middleware · API JwtAuthGuard/RolesGuard · UI guards.

  • Audit logs

    Privileged mutations recorded — roles, finance, decisions, system.

  • Session control

    Rotating refresh tokens; privileged scope re-resolved from DB.

  • Transport & headers

    Helmet, CSP posture, rate limiting, brute-force lockout.

  • Storage posture

    Object storage for manuscripts — not serverless local disk.

Integrations

  • Google OAuthProduction redirect pinned; profile completion for first login.
  • SMTP / Send CenterConsole credentials override env; sent/failed logged.
