Prospective authors are invited to submit original two page extended abstracts or full-length papers, with up to four pages for technical content including figures and references, using the formatting guidelines on the website for reviewing purposes.

Original research papers are invited in the listed areas, but not limited to, in the Call for Papers. The length of the manuscript should not exceed 10 double column pages including all graphs and references. PAPER SUBMISSIONS: Manuscripts should be prepared according to IEEE standard template. These are available for both Word and Latex at: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html

All submitted papers will be subject to a thorough peer-review process and sent to at least 3 independent reviewers. The review outcome will determine the acceptance or rejection of the paper. Submitted papers will be also tested for a potential plagiarism/self-plagiarism, so it is in the interest of the authors to become familiar with IEEE guidelines in that regard. The guidelines are available at:
