Preparing your camera-ready version (now you are here)
- All final manuscripts should be written in English and must be formatted according to standard
IEEE 2-column format. - The mandatory IEEE template in Microsoft Word and LaTeX format can be found at IEEE templates page.
- The authors' names and affiliations should be included in the paper.
- Address all reviewers' comments and revise your paper accordingly before submitting the final camera-ready version.
- Please make sure that all Figures and Tables are of high quality and their content is easily readable.
- Please make sure also that your paper contains no headers, no footers, and no page numbers.
- The final paper must be converted into PDF with settings compliant with the requirements of the IEEE Xplore digital library. For this purpose, the IEEE PDF eXpress web tool should be used. PDF files generated in a different way might not be IEEE Xplore-compliant and could be rejected.
- Creating an IEEE PDF eXpress account is explained in the following section.
- To include your accepted paper in both the conference proceedings volume and the IEEE xplore digital library, one of the authors must fill and sign the IEEE copyright transfer form and return it to IEEE. The IEEE copyright transfer form can be filled in online easily through EDAS. To do so, please follow the procedure explained below at the IEEE copyright transfer form submission section.
- Upload the PDF validated by the IEEE PDF eXpress via EDAS page of your paper before the deadline. The deadline for paper revisions is until November 3, 2023.

IEEE copyright transfer form submission
- Login in EDAS.
- From the “Home” tab of your EDAS account, click on the title of your accepted paper.

- At the end of this procedure, the online IEEE Copyright Transfer Form will be displayed. Please date and write your name at the bottom of the Copyright Transfer Form and finally submit it.
- The form will be recorded in EDAS. A copy will be sent to you by e-mail.
