Call for Papers – IITSOE 2026

We invite the submission of original research papers, practical experience reports, works-in-progress, and practitioner insights that fall within the technical themes outlined under the Scope & Topics section.

Prospective authors are encouraged to submit full papers ranging from 4 to 6 pages, including all figures, tables, and references, using the standard IEEE double-column conference format, which can be downloaded from this website. Submissions will be accepted exclusively through electronic means via the Online Submission System.

All submitted manuscripts will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process, ensuring fairness and impartiality. Each full conference registration is valid for one accepted paper.

Policy on AI-Generated Content

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-generated content—including but not limited to text, figures, images, code, or grammatical enhancements—must be disclosed in the Acknowledgements section of the submitted manuscript. The name of the AI tool must be stated, along with the specific sections it contributed to, and a brief explanation of how it was used.

AI-generated content must not exceed 20% of the total manuscript. General use of AI tools for minor editing or proofreading does not fall under this policy, but disclosure is still recommended.

Review and Selection Process

Following the submission deadline, each manuscript will be subjected to plagiarism screening. Submissions with a high similarity index will be automatically disqualified.

All accepted papers will be reviewed by a minimum of two reviewers, with final acceptance based on the average review score and qualitative feedback.
