Paper submission Guidelines
All submissions must be original and must not be under concurrent consideration
or scheduled for presentation elsewhere.
In order to avoid scheduling conflicts, presenters are limited to one formal
paper as primary author. However, a presenter may also contribute as a joint
author of another paper.
Submissions are invited for papers, panels,
workshops, posters/demonstrations, and corporate
showcases/demos. For details on the submission process please click on the
relevant link.
Papers may be submitted as reports or case studies of significant work in research, development
and applications related to aspects of the conference topics.
To submit a paper for the conference you should submit a short proposal since
an abstract alone is not sufficient to be evaluated.
