Konferensbidrag

Konferensbidrag, often translated as conference paper or proceeding, refers to a scholarly work presented at an academic or scientific conference. These contributions are typically original research findings, reviews, or theoretical discussions that are submitted for evaluation by a program committee. Acceptance of a conference bidrag means the author or authors will have the opportunity to present their work, usually through an oral presentation or a poster session, to an audience of peers.

The primary purpose of a konferensbidrag is to disseminate new research quickly and to foster discussion and collaboration within a specific academic field. Unlike journal articles, conference papers are often published in proceedings, which are collections of the papers presented at the conference. These proceedings can be published in print or digitally. While some conference papers are later expanded and submitted to peer-reviewed journals, many serve as a standalone means of sharing preliminary or specialized research. The review process for conference bids vary; some are peer-reviewed, while others undergo editorial review. The acceptance rate can also differ significantly between conferences.
