Instructions for authors

Dear Authors,

You are welcome to prepare papers for all the four conferences according to the
following guidelines.

Review paper

Your paper should be uploaded to the paper submission site for review by the TPC not later
than 23:59 CET on 14 th January 2020.

The submission site will open in October 2019.

You will submit your review paper to EDAS paper processing system using following links, depending on the sub-conference:

We recommend all authors to use the standard IEEE conference proceedings A4 format
template  for review papers, as the same format is MANDATORY for the final paper.

The review paper should be at least 3 pages.

Final paper

Upon acceptance of the review version of your paper, you will be asked to submit a final
version, where you have a chance to take into account reviewers’ comments. Your final paper
version should be uploaded to the paper management system before the deadline announced
in the “important dates” section.

The use of the publication template is mandatory for acceptance of your publication into
IEEE Xplore. Before submitting the final paper, please make sure that:

  • you have chosen the correct files and settings for an A4 page size and conference paper.
  • the pdf file is IEEE Xplore-compatible and has been checked with IEEE PDF eXpress service.

 

The final paper should be 3 – 6  pages.

MIKON/IRS/URSI/SPW final paper requirements:

Please follow strictly the templates from
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html

The correct format for the Paper Title is non-bold, non-italic and uses the “paper title” style
in MS Word. Please check this before you attempt to upload the paper.

LaTeX users: do not forget to switch to A4 paper size:

\documentclass[a4paper,conference]{IEEEtran}

IEEEXplore compatibility

Your final paper should be IEEEXplore compatible, which includes:

  1. Being PDF 1.4 (Acrobat 5) or later but not Acrobat 9.
  2. Being created with a PDF distiller (converted by PDF eXpress  or created with pdflatex and
    checked by PDF eXpress) and not scanned.
  3. All fonts must be embedded or subsetted.
  4. No password or other security settings.
  5. No bookmarks or links.
  6. No PDF attachments.

The full acceptance of the final paper is subject to following conditions:

AT LEAST ONE AUTHOR must register and pay the conference fee until the “early bird” deadline.

A Copyright Form for the paper must be completed together with final paper submission.

It is IEEE policy to include papers in IEEE Xplore only when the authors have attended the
conference and presented their work. We do not plan for any “remote” presentation.
