A conference paper is a written document that presents research findings, theoretical insights, or scholarly arguments, and is intended to be delivered at an academic or professional conference. Often, conference papers are the first formal publication of a research project and they can therefore provide the latest thinking on a subject.
Conference papers are aimed at an academic or a professional audience working in a specialised field.
Conference papers can be published on their own, in conference proceedings (which are a collection of papers from a conference) and in journals. They can appear in online and print format.
