PAPER and POSTER SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:


Authors who are interested in the above topics can submit their unpublished work to SNPD 2025-Summer conference via https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=snpd2025summeriv. A clear indication of the motivation and comparison with prior related work should be presented. Simultaneous submission to a journal or another conference is not allowed.

Submissions must adhere to the following guidelines:

• Papers must be formatted using an IEEE template file from https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html without altering margins or the font point.

• The maximum length is 8 pages for a regular paper and 4 pages for a short paper (including references).

• Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be placed in an appendix to be read by the program committee members at their discretion.


Poster paper: Poster papers should be up to 2 pages in length (+ references). 

Posters offer authors the opportunity to present early results and new ideas on cutting-edge and experimental research. Authors should highlight leading ideas of the ongoing research and its expected outcome and impact. Poster papers should present a summary of the research work and ideas that will be presented during the poster session.

Poster presentation: A0 dimension (84.1 x 118.9 cm, or 33.1 x 46.8 inches), vertically oriented.

Accepted posters must be presented at the conference and at least one author for each poster must be registered for the conference.

All the paper and poster submissions will be peer-reviewed based on technical quality, relevance, originality, significance, and clarity.
