Submissions:

You can select one of the following 3 types of submissions:

– Full papers (min 6 full pages and up to 12 pages), deadline: 2 March 2026;

– Poster or demo summary (min 200 words, max 4 pages), deadline: 17 April 2026.

Traditionally, FRUCT doesn’t provide a deadline extension; instead, we have an early-bird submission mechanism. The Early-bird submission provides authors with a unique opportunity for early review of the papers, and if needed, the authors can fix the paper according to the review comments and resubmit it before the final deadline. It significantly increases the chance of getting your paper accepted, as this way you will always have a second chance to improve the paper and get another round of review.

The Early bird submission deadline is 2 February 2026.

All papers get blind peer review by the Technical Committee. We use the IEEE paper template, and Full Paper submissions shall have at least 6 full pages.

Full papers to be published in the FRUCT proceedings (ISSN 2305-7254), included in IEEE Xplore, and indexed by Scopus, DBLP, Web of Science, ACM, and RSCI (VAK list). The FRUCT series is included in Scimago Journal Rank (SJR, http://scimagojr.com/journalsearch.php?q=21100305223&tip=sid), AMiner, and CORE.

FRUCT has a high rating in national systems, e.g., Finnish (JUFO=1, JufoID: 72707), Norwegian (NSD=1), Danish (BFI=1, ID: 8782540).

The selected papers get an invitation to submit an extended version of the paper for publication in Scopus-indexed partner journals.
