The Conference Proceedings will be included in the IEEE Interactive Electronic Library (IEL) as part of IEEE Xplore. All authors who have been accepted must register for the conference and attend the conference to present their paper. Authors who do not attend the conference to present their papers, or arrange for a co-author or knowledgeable colleague to present their paper in the absence of the primary author, will not have their paper published in the IEEE IEL and IEEE Xplore, per IEEE policy.

IEEE reserves the right to exclude a submission from distribution after the conference, including exclusion from IEEE Xplore, if the submission does not meet IEEE standards for scope and/or quality. Articles excluded from further distribution shall be archived by IEEE but shall not be indexed or appear on IEEE Xplore.

Once it is accepted, you can follow the below instructions to submit your final, Xplore-compliant paper by April 5, 2023.

Authors are invited to submit a Full Paper reporting original research of theoretical or applied nature using the online submission system, EDAS. Shorter submissions will be automatically rejected. The paper must be written in English and clearly presented, with an emphasis on the work’s theoretical or/and practical innovation 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 an oral presentation at the conference.

For your convenience, the IEEE Style Manual and Conference Paper Templates in various formats are available here.

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

Please read carefully the following information concerning the registration procedure that is presented in the Author Instructions, especially if you are the prospective presenter of an accepted paper or if you need to guarantee inclusion of your accepted paper in the proceedings. An accepted paper will be published in the proceedings only if the full-fee registration payment for one of the authors is received and correctly processed by April 5, 2023 – no exceptions. In addition, the author must attend the conference and present the paper. Papers that are not presented will not be published. No exceptions.

One author registration will cover the publication expenses of two accepted submissions. For each additional accepted paper associated to the same registration, a $400 USD printing contribution will be charged. In the case no registration has been received and correctly processed to cover the paper publication, the conference organizers will contact the authors before the paper is removed from the proceedings.

You will be required to enter your registration code prior to uploading your paper. If you need to register by bank transfer, please email Alexis Wisdom, Registration and Technical Publications Manager, [email protected].

NO PAPER WILL BE PUBLISHED WITHOUT THE AUTHOR’S COMPLETED REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT.

All final manuscripts must be generated using the PDF eXpress tool.

To generate the IEEE Xplore compatible PDF file of your paper, follow these steps:

If authors would like to post their papers electronically on any web site, any ftp site, or any other electronic dissemination technique, they must include the IEEE copyright notice on the initial screen displaying the IEEE-copyrighted material.

Each accepted contribution to ICNS 2023 must be accompanied by a signed Copyright Form. The copyright form should be filled out and signed by one author, preferably the primary author.
