Initial Paper Submission Information

INITIAL FULL PAPER PREPARATION

Authors are invited to submit a Full Paper (4-6 pages) reporting original research of theoretical or applied nature using the online submission system, EDAS. Shorter submissions will be automatically rejected. The initial submission should summarize the scope of the final paper and explicitly include the primary results and findings, emphasizing new advances, theories and/or applications so that the program committee will be able to understand the originality and the value of the work.

A submission implies willingness to register and present the work if the paper is accepted for presentation at the conference.
Manuscripts will be reviewed by the Technical Program Committee. Authors of accepted full papers must submit the final paper version according to the deadline, register for the workshop, and attend to present their papers. The maximum length for final papers is 6 pages without exceptions.

**CIVEMSA 2022 will be held in-person in Chemnitz, Germany, however, if there are instances of Force Majeure (especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic) which limits you to travel, there will be the possibility for a virtual presentation.

For your convenience, the IEEE Style Guide and Conference Paper Templates in various formats are available here. *The maximum length for final papers is 6 pages without exceptions.

**High-quality papers that are accepted and presented will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore digital library and indexed by EI/Compendex.
