Initial Paper Submission Information

Authors are invited to submit a Full Paper (4-6 pages) reporting original research of a 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 a 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 2023 will be held in person in Tunis, Tunisia, however, if there are instances of Force Majeure (especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic) which limit 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.
