Important dates


Publications

The accepted papers from this conference will be published by IEEE Computer Society in IEEE proceedings. Papers should be written in English conforming to the IEEE Conference Proceedings Format (8.5" x 11", Two-Column). Papers should be submitted through the EasyChair paper submission system at the conference website. Each paper is limited to 8 pages (or 10 pages with an overlength charge).

By submitting a paper to the conference, authors assure that if the paper is accepted, at least one author will attend the conference and present the paper. For no-show authors, their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference and their affiliations will be notified. Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be considered for possible publication in special issues of prestigious international journals. The program committee will select and award two "Best Paper Awards" for this conference.
