Submissions

Papers: The paper format must follow IEEE paper submission rules, two-column format using 10-point font, Times New Roman or similar. The maximum number of pages per submitted paper is six (6), including all illustrations and references. Up to two (2) additional pages will be permitted for accepted papers at the final submission phase, for an additional charge. The option to add extra pages (after review) serves to enable authors to include the feedback and suggestions provided by reviewers.

Invited and Special Sessions: Proposals for invited and special sessions should contain a summary statement describing the motivation and relevance of the proposed session. For invited sessions the paper titles and the names of the authors should be given when proposing the session. For special sessions a list of researchers/research group that might contribute papers should be given. For both invited and special sessions authors must submit full papers that will undergo the same review process as other papers. During the submitting process, each such paper must be marked as “Invited/Special Session Paper”, and the corresponding session should be selected.

Workshops and Tutorials: Proposals for workshops and tutorials should contain the title, list of speakers, and extended summaries (up to 2000 words) of their presentations.

All contributions (papers, invited/special session papers, proposals for invited/special sessions, workshops, and tutorials) must be submitted electronically through PaperCept by the submission deadline.

Review: All submitted papers will undergo a peer review process coordinated by the Program Chairs, Advisory Committee Members, IPC members and qualified reviewers. Authors will be notified of results according to the schedule below. Accepted papers must be uploaded electronically by the deadline.
