We cordially invite you to submit:

Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements.

Furthermore, we also welcome submission of:

How to Submit Your Contribution

All papers, extended abstracts, invited session proposals, late breaking results posters, and tutorial proposals must be submitted electronically through the PaperCept Conference Management System.

Authors are advised to read PaperCept's Getting Started Manual for Authors and PDF Compliance Guidelines carefully. Only PDF files will be accepted.

Format Requirements

Submissions that do not meet the format requirements will be rejected. Templates and Resources are available for download for the following systems:

Paper format requirements.

For the purpose of review only, manuscripts up to eight (8) pages in the standard two-column format will be considered. The final manuscripts are limited to a length of six (6) pages. Accepted papers exceeding the normal length may be included in the proceedings upon payment of over-length page charges for each page in excess of six pages, up to a maximum of two additional pages.

Extended Abstracts

Extended Abstract submissions provide an opportunity to present research findings at the conference, offering more flexibility compared to the traditional paper submission format. This allows for the inclusion of application-focused contributions, sharing of recent preliminary results, and showcasing demonstrator achievements by students. Extended abstracts will be indexed and published on the IEEE Xplore digital library, and thus will follow the same review and copy right transfer process as the regular papers.

Specifics of Extended Abstracts submission

Exceptionally, some of the Extended Abstract based presentations may be positioned in the program in regular type of sessions at the discretion of programme committee.

Extended Abstracts must be submitted through the PaperCept Conference Management System.

Invited Session Proposal

Proposals are invited from participants who wish to organize invited sessions. An invited session comprises six thematically coherent papers/extended abstracts. The session must consist of (invited) contributions achieving added value over the mere presentation of individual papers, by focusing, for example, on emerging challenges or different angles on established problems. Proposals for invited sessions must be submitted through the PaperCept Conference Management System.

Proposals are limited to six (6) pages/extended abstracts in the standard two-column conference format and should contain a summary describing the motivation and relevance of the proposed session, as well as a short overview of the individual papers and how they fit into the overall theme. The invited session proposals have to be submitted before the invited papers of the session. Upon submission of the proposal the session organizer will receive a session code, which should be communicated to the authors of the invited papers for the submission of their contributions.

We advise invited session organizers to submit their proposals at least one week before the conference deadline in order to allow sufficient time for the submission of the invited papers.

All Invited sessions organisers are invited to discuss their plans with the Invited Sessions Chair Dr Andrea Lecchini Visintini at an early stage to help with planning.

Invited Papers

The six invited session papers/extended abstracts must be submitted separately by their authors using the session code provided by the invited session organizer. Invited papers/extended abstract will undergo a review process similar to that of contributed papers. Therefore, they should be of comparable high quality and should abide by the same formatting and submission rules. Invited papers/extended abstract must be submitted through the PaperCept Conference Management System and must be formatted in accordance with the submission policy.

If an invited session is accepted but some of its constituent papers are rejected, the Program Committee reserves the right to replace the rejected invited papers with compatible contributed papers. Conversely, accepted invited papers from a rejected invited session will be included in regular contributed paper sessions.

For further information please contact the Invited Sessions Chair, Dr Andrea Lecchini Visintini.

Late Breaking Results Poster

Late breaking results poster submissions allow researchers to showcase their latest findings that were not available during the regular abstract submission. These posters present novel insights and preliminary discoveries, fostering discussions and feedback from the scientific community. They provide a platform to exchange ideas, establish collaborations, and disseminate ongoing research quickly.

Late breaking results posters will not be indexed or published on the IEEE Xplore digital library. They will be available to conference attendees in both poster and electronic form.

Specifics of Late Breaking Results Poster submission:

They must be submitted through the PaperCept Conference Management System.

Tutorials

Tutorials will be scheduled during the days of the conference and organized in dedicated tracks.

Tutorials involve formal presentation of the principles (e.g., theory, methodology, and tools) behind an established research area to enhance the knowledge and skills of the participants in that area. The duration of each Tutorial is 2 hours.

Interested organizers of Tutorials should submit a brief proposal through the PaperCept Conference Management System. A proposal should include the title, list of instructors and their affiliations, an overview of the event (e.g., abstract, keywords, objectives, motivation, content, structure, and tentative program), and intended audience, as well as role and brief bio of each instructor.

The Program Committee reserves the right to reject tutorial proposals based on content.
