Authors are invited to submit a demo proposal in the form of a 2-page paper following the IEEE conference double-column format. If possible, include an illustration of the demo system architecture and early results. The demo proposals will be reviewed according to the following criteria:
- Novelty of the research contribution,
- Potential interest and impact to the audience, and
- The quality of the implementation and the presentation
Demo papers will be peer-reviewed and should be submitted via EDAS at https://edas.info/N23586.
At least one author of each accepted demo must register to the conference and present the demo at the scheduled demo session(s). Please feel free to contact the demo Co-Chairs if you have any questions regarding the demo content or setup.
