Information for authors

Submission instructions
All submissions have to comply with IEEE’s guidelines. Initial submissions for review are limited to seven (7) pages. Camera-ready papers should not exceed six (6) pages including figures without incurring additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with over length page charge). Papers must be written using the IEEE conference proceedings style format (two-column and 10-point font). Information on IEEE style formats and available templates can be found here.

Only timely submissions through EDAS will be accepted for review. You can submit your paper here.

Registration
To be published in the IEEE CSCN Conference Proceedings and to be eligible for publication in IEEE Xplore®, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference unless the TPC Chair grants permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance of the event and who is qualified both to present and answer questions. Non-refundable registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final IEEE formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. For authors with multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to three papers.

Accepted and presented papers will be published in the IEEE CSCN Conference Proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore® as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. The conference’s best papers will be recommended for publication at the IEEE Communications Magazine's supplement on Communications Standards.
