Conference Venue:
Conference is held at the Lappeenranta University of Technology, Skinnarilankatu 34, 53851 Lappeenranta, Finland.
See campus map with indications (bus stop and specific building where the workshop is held) HERE in PDF. The workshop is held at the “student association building” (a white building to the left getting off the bus). On Tuesday there will be a small reception booth in the lobby of the student association building, where participants can register.
Bus number 5 with the direction “YLIOPISTO” goes directly to the University main building (last and automatic stop). The bus starts from the railway station, goes via the city center, and continues to the university (and vice versa). The schedule for the time of the conference is not yet available, but the busses generally go every 20 minutes or so. The bus ride to the university will take about 20 minutes from the city center and about 30 minutes from the railway station.
An interactive map of the city can be found here.
Paper Submission:
Participation on the workshop is based on ABSTRACTS that are published as a “book of abstracts”.
Researchers wishing to contribute to the workshop special issues are invited to submit FULL PAPERs (max. 12 pages). Observe that the full papers are NOT due on the same dates as the abstracts!
Authors are strongly encouraged to carefully prepare their abstracts (1-2 pages) according to the IEEE style using the template available at the workshop web-site. Only camera ready papers with the correct formatting can be published in the proceedings. The workshop does not provide any editing service. The format for the special issues is communicated later!
Submissions of the abstracts must not be anonymized = author information should be visible!
All papers must be submitted through the online submission system in PDF or MS Word format. The submission system was opened on March 15th, 2019.
Submitting a full paper is not a requirement for presentation! In such cases only a 1-2-page abstract can be submitted!
