Common Instructions & Policies
Submission Guidelines
- ▸Submitted manuscripts must be structured as technical papers. They must represent original, unpublished research that is not currently under review elsewhere.
- ▸Manuscripts can be submitted to one of the following three tracks: Regular track – 6 to 8 pages, double-column, IEEE conference style; Industry track – 4 to 6 pages, double-column, IEEE conference style; Position / WIP track – exactly 4 pages, double-column, IEEE conference style.
- ▸Use the official IEEE conference templates for MS Word and LaTeX (IEEE eXpress templates).
- ▸Electronic submissions must be in readable PDF format.
- ▸The papers which are in arxiv like sites will be desk rejected as they reveal author identities which is against double blind review.
- ▸All manuscripts must be submitted via the CMT portal.
Review Process
- ▸All submitted manuscripts undergo mandatory plagiarism screening as per IEEE guidelines.
- ▸Double-blind review is used. Authors must remove names, affiliations, acknowledgements, and any identifying information from the manuscript.
- ▸Self-citations must be written in the third person to avoid revealing identity.
- ▸Papers are evaluated on originality, technical depth, clarity, significance, and relevance to the conference scope.
- ▸The author list at the time of submission is final. No reordering, addition or removal of authors is allowed after submission.
- ▸Papers violating formatting, page limits, or anonymization rules will be rejected without review.
- ▸A paper may be moved to WIP/Poster category if it does not meet depth requirements; authors will have 1 week to submit a shorter version.
Publication Policy
- ▸At least one author of every accepted paper must register for the conference and present it.
- ▸Each accepted paper requires a separate author registration.
- ▸All accepted and presented papers will be submitted for possible inclusion into IEEE Xplore, subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements.
- ▸Accepted papers require a signed copyright transfer agreement as per IEEE policy.
