Submission Guidelines

• Originality: Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for review elsewhere will be considered.
• Review Process: All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality and relevance through double-blind peer review. Authors must preserve the anonymity of their submission; papers not conforming to this policy will be rejected.
• Format: Papers should follow the IEEE conference format.
• Length: Maximum 9 printed pages, including all figures, references, and appendices. An appendix of at most 2 pages is allowed, but reviewers are not obliged to read it. The appendix is included in the 9-page limit.

• Presentation Requirement: At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference at the full rate and present the paper. Substitute presenters require prior permission.
• Author List: Changes to the list of authors are prohibited once a paper has been submitted for review.

Double-Blind Submission Policies:

• Remove author names and affiliations from the title page.
• Omit acknowledgments.
• Avoid project titles or names that could be used to trace authors via web search.
• Carefully name submission files to anonymize author information.
• Reference your own past work in the third person (e.g., "In prior work, Clark et al. [1] presented..."). Do not omit references to maintain context.
