Submission Guidelines:
---------------------------
Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or a journal. Full papers (up to 8 camera-ready pages, 10 pt font in IEEE format) should present novel perspectives within the general scope of the conference. All papers must include title, complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and keywords on the cover page. Paper submission will be reviewed and evaluated based on its originality, technical quality, and relevance to the conference. Conference content will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore (approval pending) as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Note that, one of the authors must present their papers at the conference to be included into IEEE Xplore.
SKIMA 2017 invites proposals for Special sessions and tutorials in all relevant areas. Sessions can cover any of the established topics as well as emerging subfields. Please send one page proposal with a title and brief description of the session and tutorial contents.
