NOTICE
The contract expired on 31/12/2025 and renewal negotiations are currently underway. However, the publisher has not yet clarified how this transition period will be managed. Although the ACM platform still indicates that it is possible to publish under the CRUI agreement, we cannot guarantee that APCs for articles accepted during this time will be covered. Authors are therefore advised that they may need to cover these costs themselves.
