Paper Submission

Prospective authors are invited to prepare submissions of two (2) to eight (8) A4 pages (including tables, figures and references) in standard IEEE double-column format, using the following template: [Format template from IEEE]

Use of any other IEEE templates is NOT acceptable as there are subtle differences between those templates and the conference template that will affect the consistency in the appearance of papers published in the proceedings. Importantly:

● Do not change the paper size (A4) or margins in the template.

●The headers and footers must remain empty. (They should not contain page numbers or anything else.)

● Formatting of the paper must be done using the pre-defined MS-Word styles in the template, rather than manually. The paper must use all the predefined font styles, sizes etc. as per the template.

● Basic examples of citations and references are included in the template, but authors are required to fully adhere to the guidelines and instructions stipulated in the IEEE Reference Guide at http://ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/IEEE-Reference-Guide.pdf. (Where are conflicts between the template and the IEEE Reference Guide, the IEEE Reference Guide prevails.)

●Please ensure that all template text (guidance text for composing and formatting conference papers) is removed from your conference paper prior to submission.

Papers will be accepted only by electronic submission through the conference website, from which guidelines and templates are available. Submissions will NOT be accepted via e-mail. 

A blind peer-review process will be used to evaluate all submitted papers.
