Important note to authors about ACM’s new open access publishing model
Scope: This notice applies only to papers accepted to the DAI 2026 Research Track and Industry Track.
Publication fees are separate from conference registration fees. Any applicable article processing charges (APCs) must be settled directly with ACM through its publication system. The conference organizers do not collect or cover publication fees.
Authors will receive an email with detailed instructions once their papers enter the publication process.
ACM has introduced a new open access publishing model for the International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS). Authors based at institutions that are not yet part of the ACM Open program and do not qualify for a full geographic waiver will be required to pay an article processing charge (APC) to publish their ICPS article in the ACM Digital Library. To determine whether or not an APC will be applicable to your article, please follow the detailed guidance here: https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/author-guidance.
Further information may be found on the ACM website, as follows:
- Full details of the new ICPS publishing model: https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/faq
- Full details of the ACM Open program: https://www.acm.org/publications/openaccess
Please direct all questions about the new model to [email protected].
