Initial Full Paper Preparation
Authors are invited to submit a Full Paper reporting original research of theoretical or applied nature using the online submission system, EDAS. Shorter submissions will be automatically rejected. The paper must be written in English and clearly presented, with an emphasis on the work’s theoretical or/and practical innovationso that the program committee will be able to understand the originality and the value of the work. A submission implies willingness to register and present the work if the paper is accepted for an oral presentation at the conference.
Manuscripts will be reviewed by the Technical Program Committee. Authors of accepted full papers must submit the final paper version according to the deadline, register for the workshop, and attend (virtually) to present their papers.
For your convenience, the IEEE Style Manual and Conference Paper Templates in various formats are available here.
**High-quality papers that are accepted and presented will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore digital library and indexed by EI/Compendex.
Paper Length
Papers cannot exceed 8 pages long organized as follows: No more than 6 pages for the technical content (including text, figures, tables, acknowledgement, etc.); followed by no more than 2 pages for the bibliography/references. The two parts must NOT overlap. This page-limit policy will be manually checked (as it cannot be verified by the online paper submission system). Non-compliant papers will be automatically rejected.
