Industrial Session

To provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss the challenges and opportunities in applying these technologies to real-world problems, and to share best practices, late-breaking results, on-going research projects, innovative ideas, case studies, and practical experiences. The session can include presentations, panel discussions, and demonstrations that showcase the latest trends and innovations in industrial computing and communication technologies.

PAPER SUBMISSION

Authors are invited to submit papers of up to 6 pages, written in English, in PDF format and compliant with the IEEE standard (https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates) with A4 size. For LaTeX users, use this command in defining the documentclass:

\documentclass[conference,a4paper]{IEEEtran}

\pdfminorversion=6

All papers must be original contributions and not previously published, nor currently under consideration, for publication elsewhere. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Conference proceedings that meet IEEE quality reviews standards may be eligible for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The IEEE reverses the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g, removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.

Papers should be submitted via the EDAS submission system following the author instructions from the conference websites: https://edas.info/N34111
