Guidelines for submission of manuscripts for review

Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers for publication in the IEEE
ICCSEA 2020 Conference proceedings and for presentation at the Conference.

The accepted and presented papers of the authors (with at least one author duly registered for the
conference) will be published in the Conference Proceedings and digitally archived through
IEEE Xplore. The conference proceedings will be distributed amongst the participants during the
conference.

Authors must submit their manuscripts with their Easychair login using the submission link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iccsea2020

In case of non availability of easychair account, the author must create their account using the
link provided in the login screen. The procedure for creating an account in EasyChair is the
following.

o On the first screen you should type the text that you see in the image capcha and click
on "Continue". This is to verify that the person is a human.
o If you type the text correctly, you will be asked to fill out a simple form with your
personal information in the next screen.
o After you filled out the form, EasyChair will send you an email with a link that you
can use to complete the account creation.

Please note that IEEE-ICCSEA 2020 will follow a double-blind review process. All submitted
papers will be judged based on their quality, presentation and relevance through a double-blind
review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Therefore,
the authors are required to preserve the anonymity of submission, while at the same time
allowing the reader to fully grasp the context of related past work, including their own. Papers
that do not conform with our double-blind submission policies will be rejected without review.
Guidelines for preserving anonymity with double-blind submission:

Remove the names and affiliations of authors from the title page of the PDF file that you will
submit for review. This information need to be included in the final camera ready manuscript if
your paper gets accepted. During the review manuscript submission, you need to include all the
author details only at the EDAS registration page. The PDF file of the review manuscript should
not have the author information.

1. Remove acknowledgments of identifying names and funding sources from the PDF
file that you will submit for review. This information can be included in the final
camera ready manuscript if your paper gets accepted.
2. Remove project titles or names that can be used to trace back to the authors via a web
search engine.
3. Use care in naming your files. Source file names (e.g., "Alice-n-Bob.dvi") are often
embedded in the final output as accessible comments.
4. Use care in referring to your previous works as related works. Do not omit references
to provide anonymity, as this leaves the reviewer unable to grasp the context. Instead,
you can reference your past work in the third person format, just like any other piece
of related work by another author. For example, instead of "In a previous work [10],
we have presented a data diffusion methodology …," sentences in the spirit of "In a
previous work [10], the authors have presented a data diffusion methodology …"
should be used or "XYZ et al. [10] have presented a data diffusion methodology …"
5. Papers with the same title and abstract should not be posted on a public website, such
as arxiv.org, or transmitted via public mailing lists.

During the initial manuscript submission process via Easychair, it is the authors' responsibility to
ensure that all the authors' names are included in the Easychair submission page only, and NOT
in the PDF file. In particular, the Easychair registration page must include all co-authors, not just
the submitting author. Failure to comply with this rule might result in your paper being
withdrawn from the review process. Please be aware that the author list of an accepted paper
cannot be changed in the final manuscript.
Paper Size & Format:

All submissions should be written in English with a maximum page length of FIVE (5) printed
pages. Papers should be in PDF format, two columns, (minimum 10-point font) or greater and
compliant with IEEE manuscript guidelines.

Standard IEEE conference templates for LaTeX and Microsoft Word formats can be used to
write technical papers and are found at:

http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html

Papers exceeding page limits or not in proper format will not be considered for review.
