Paper submission guidelines
We invite two types of submissions: full papers and abstracts for posters.
- Full Papers must describe original work and be up to 5 (five) two-column and single-spaced pages, including references. Accepted full papers will be presented orally by one of the authors (in person or virtually).
- Abstract for posters must report complete novel results and can be up to 1 (one) two-column and single-spaced page, including references. Accepted abstracts for posters will be presented in poster sessions in person.

Both categories follow the IEEE conference template. A complete template (Latex and Word) to prepare your paper is available at
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.

Acceptance of submissions will be based on quality, relevance, and originality. The official language of the symposium is English. Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.

Format: Both categories follow the IEEE conference template. A complete template (Latex and Word) to prepare your paper is available at
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.

Publication: SIoT has IEEE sponsorship and the proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore.

Blind Review: During the initial paper submission process via CMT, authors are responsible for removing any information from their manuscripts that might lead a reviewer to discern their identities or affiliations, ensuring a blind review. For this:
- Remove all mentions of the author name(s), institutional affiliations(s), and sources of funding from the paper (including page headers and footers, footnotes, and acknowledgments);
- Please avoid phrasing in which you refer to your own previously published work (for example, “elsewhere I have argued…”). If possible, refer to your own references in the third person. Avoid citing unpublished manuscripts;
- Check that all identifiers have been removed from electronic files such as Microsoft Word documents (File → Information → Check for issues → Inspect Document).
