Conference papers are articles submitted to academic conferences, while journal papers are articles published by authors in the form of papers, so there is a substantial difference between them.

The submission of conference papers is judged by the organizing Committee to decide whether to hire or not. Journal papers are submitted to academic journals, and the journal editorial department will inform whether they are hired or not. Therefore, the difference between the submission and publication of conference papers and journal papers is different. After the conference papers are hired, you can choose whether to attend the conference or not, while the journal papers only need to wait for publication after being hired.

Conference papers can be academic year papers, graduation papers, dissertations, scientific papers, achievement papers, etc. , it can also be a short report. Periodical papers are the research of an academic field or discipline, which can draw opinions from experiments, theories, predictions, etc., and can also be a summary of new progress in a certain field.

Conference papers will be distributed to authors after publication (some conferences will submit papers to international journals for publication and issue journals), but only journals will be issued after publication of journal papers.

The review period of conference papers is short, usually around 1-2 weeks, even for small meetings, it only takes a few days. Periodical papers review cycle is relatively slow, generally about 2-4 months, depending on the actual situation of the magazine.
