Author information

Paper preparation

ICICDT 2022 allows only online submission of the papers in PDF format. Papers submitted for ICICDT 2022 must not exceed four pages with all illustrations and references included. IEEE templates (Word, LaTeX, and BibTeX) are available for dowload. All the papers in PDF format MUST be verified for IEEE compliance before submission using PDF Express.

After selection of papers, authors will be informed of the decision of the Technical Program Committee by e-mail. At the same time, the Preliminary Program will be published on the Internet.

Authors of accepted papers have to submit online the final camera-ready manuscript in PDF format (verified for IEEE compliance through PDF Express) and submit online the IEEE Copyright Form. The paper cannot exceed the length of four pages.

The working language for the conference is English, which will be used for all presentations and printed material.

Review process

Papers submitted for review must clearly state:

• the purpose of the work;
• how and to what extent it advances the art;
• specific new results and their impact.

The degree to which the paper deals with these issues will affect whether the paper is selected. The most frequent cause of rejection of submitted papers is a lack of new results. Only work that has not been previously published at the time of the conference will be considered. Submission of a paper for review and subsequent acceptance is considered as an agreement that the work will not be placed in the public domain prior to the conference.
