Paper preparation

  • Submit papers electronically in PDF through the workshop EDAS track.
  • Write the paper in clear English and use the IEEE Computer Society proceedings format.
  • Use a maximum of six pages, including figures, tables, references and appendices. Up to two additional pages may incur an over-length charge, subject to confirmation.
  • Do not submit work that substantially overlaps with published work or a manuscript under review elsewhere.
  • Explain the research problem, contribution, method, evaluation, limitations and practical implications.

Double-anonymous review

  • Remove author names, affiliations and acknowledgements from the manuscript.
  • Remove project names or other details that directly reveal the authors.
  • Cite your previous work in the third person rather than concealing relevant references.
  • Check document metadata and file properties before submission.

Review and presentation

The programme committee will assess submissions for originality, significance, technical quality, relevance and clarity. The previous edition used at least three reviewers for each paper. The final 2026 process remains subject to confirmation.

At least one author of each accepted paper must register and present the work. Non-presented papers may not appear in the proceedings.
