Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.

Author Guidelines

We welcome four types of submissions:   

(1) Full-length papers (6 pages-long);

(2) Structured abstracts (up to 500 words);

(3) Industry testimonies of practical resilience engineering applications (up to 500 words). These will also be submitted as a structured abstract albeit with different topics, and

(4) Workshops (1 hour-long; e.g., interactive games with attendees, round tables debating key topics for the community).

The templates for formatting full papers, abstracts, and industry reports are available below:

There is no formatting requirement for the workshop proposals. Submissions will be peer-reviewed, resulting in one of three possible outcomes: accepted for oral presentation, accepted for poster/lightning talks, rejected. All accepted contributions will be published in electronic symposium proceedings with ISBN. Submissions deadlines are as follows:

January 15, 2025: submissions open

March 31, 2025: submissions close

May 15, 2025: outcome notification to authors

At least one author of each accepted contribution must register to the conference. The registration deadlines are as follows:

February 20, 2025: early bird registration opens

May 31, 2025: early bird registration closes

September 30, 2025: registration closes

Contributions related to a wide range of resilience engineering and resilient healthcare topics are welcome. They can be theoretical, empirical or a combination of those. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

1. Theoretical developments in resilience management

2. Strategies, tools, design, and interventions for translating resilience into practice

3. Adaptive capacity and self-organization in everyday work

4. Measurement of resilience

5. Policy-making and regulations supportive of resilience

6. Digital technologies supportive of resilience 

7. FRAM and other tools for modelling resilience in complex socio-technical systems

8. Safety-II
