Types of Contribution
The International Conference on Process Control accepts two types of submissions:
– full papers (nominally 6 pages),
– abstract-only submissions (not exceeding 250 words).
Accepted full papers will be submitted to IEEEXplore (indexed in WoS and Scopus).
Abstract-only submissions are ideal for presenting preliminary results or sharing ideas. Please note, that abstract-only submissions will only appear in the Conference Proceedings (including assigned ISBN), but will NOT be submitted to IEEEXplore.
Format of Full Paper
Please use the templates provided by the IEEE:
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html
for both, the initial submission and for final full papers.
Authors are required to submit the full paper in PDF format.
The PDF file must not contain page numbering or any headers and footers. The size of the pages must be set to “A4”.
The page limit for submissions is 8 pages for the initial submission and 6 pages for the final version. Please note, that submissions over 6-page limit (up to a maximum limit of 8 pages) lead to an additional charge of EUR 80 per page.
Authors have the option to select a preference for presentation format (lecture or poster presentation), although the organizers will make a final decision based on an effective overall program design.
Format of Abstract-Only Submissions
Abstracts not exceeding 250 words are to be submitted as plain text with no special formatting, and no LaTeX processing and/or other formatting is allowed. Peer review will be based on the abstract only.
