This provides an opportunity to receive feedback, revise the manuscript, and undergo an additional round of review. The Early bird submission deadline is 10 August 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.
