Final Theses - IDA

Publication of the report


For the result of the thesis to become registered in LADOK, you must be able to publish your report. We recommend that you publish your report, which is done through Linköping Electronic Press (LiU E-Press).

Start by getting an overview of the publishing process at E-Press. Then, read the instructions below carefully.

1. Fill in the Publication-agreement form

The first thing that you must do is to fill in the Publication Agreement. Hand in the filled-in form to your admininstrator.

2. Compile a pdf file containing the report and obligatory pages

Use the E-Press templates supplied for theses, and double-check that all fields in the templates for the titel page and front page, respectively, are correctly filled; that the isrn number, the title, the author(s), the supervisor, and the examiner are there.

Create a pdf file with the above contents. Make sure that the file is possible to open in a pdf reader. Also, print the pdf file and doublecheck that everything looks all right.

3. Send the pdf file to your administrator for approval

Before you upload the pdf file from step 2 to E-press, you must send it to your administrator for approval. When the file has been approved, you can continue with the next step (see below).

4. Upload the pdf file to LiU E-Press

Finally, to be able to upload the pdf file from step 2 above to LiU E-Press, you need the following information when you are going to log into E-Press:

  • user name and password for your student account
  • the ISRN number for your thesis report (e.g., LIU-IDA/LITH-EX-A--08/001--SE or LIU-IDA/LITH-EX-G--08/001--SE)
  • the subject area of the report, which automatically follows from your ISRN number:
    • LIU-IDA/LITH-EX-G--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Datavetenskap vid LiTH 15 hp examensarbete, grundnivå" (in English: Computer and information science at the Institute of Technology at Linköping University, 15 hp)
    • LIU-IDA/LITH-EX-A--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Datavetenskap vid LiTH 15 och 30 hp examensarbeten avancerad nivå" (in English: Computer and information science at the Institute of Technology at Linköping University, 30 hp)
    • LIU-IDA/FFK-UP-G--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Datavetenskap vid FFK 15 hp uppsats, grundnivå" (in English: Computer and information science at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Linköping University, 15 hp)
    • LIU-IDA/FFK-UP-A--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Datavetenskap vid FFK 30 hp uppsats, avancerad nivå" (in English: Computer and information science at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Linköping University, 30 hp)

    • LIU-IDA/KOGVET-A--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Kognitionsvetenskapliga programmet 30 hp, avancerad nivå" (in English: Program in Cognitive Science, 30 hp)
    • LIU-IDA/STAT-G--åå/xxx--SE, subject area "Statistik- och dataanalys 15 hp uppsats, grundnivå" (in English: Program in Statistics and Data Analysis, 15 hp)
    • LIU-IDA/STAT-A--åå/xxx--S, subject area "Statistik- och dataanalys 30 hp uppsats, avancerad nivå" (in English: Program in Statistics and Data Analysis, 30 hp)

5. Find detailed-level National Subject Area

You will be required to enter detailed-level National Subject Area for your thesis. This is most simply done by pasting your abstract in the form at Electronic Press to guess a category.

When you have all of the above information at hand, go to the Publishing Instructions at LiU E-Press and follow them. When you have finished you will get a page with a confirmation that the thesis has been transferred. Print out the confirmation.


After two--three days you will receive an e-mail with a confirmation that your thesis report has been published. If you do not receive this, please contact the webmaster@ep.liu.se.

You can never change your report once it has been published. If you find any serious errata afterwards and you want to publish a new version, it is not sure that the editors at LiU E-Press will agree to this. The old version will always remain, which is the fundamental idea of publishing a thesis: Your report is included as a scientific publication in a publication series, and as such it must be assured that the report has not been modified afterwards.
