All submissions to 2024 International Conference on Electric Machines & Drives, Industrial Automation (ICEMDIA 2024) should be written in English according to the template. To guarantee the high quality of the conference and the proceedings, the submissions must be reviewed by preliminary review and peer-review (double blind). The preliminary review will take 3-5 working days by conference secretary, if the submission passed the preliminary review, then it will be peer-reviewed by 2-3 committee members. And the review results come out within 40-45 days. If the paper needs revising (minor or major revisions), the revised version should be submitted again for peer review by the initial reviewer(s). Authors are allowed to submit the revisions within 15 days.

 

Document Formatting

 

Use the following guidelines when preparing your document:

LENGTH: You are allowed a total of 12 pages for your document. Up to 11 pages may contain technical content, figures, and references, while the 12th page may contain only references. This is the maximum number of pages that will be accepted, including all figures, tables, and references. Any documents that exceed the 12 page limit or have a 12th page containing anything other than references, will be rejected.

LANGUAGE: All proposals must be in English.

MARGINS: Documents should be formatted for standard letter-size (8-1/2" by 11" or 216mm by 279mm) paper. Any text or other material outside the margins specified below will not be accepted:

    1. All text and figures must be contained in a 178 mm x 229 mm (7 inch x 9 inch) image area.
    2. The left margin must be 19 mm (0.75 inch).
    3. The top margin must be 25 mm (1.0 inch), except for the title page where it must be 35 mm (1.375 inches).
    4. Text should appear in two columns, each 86 mm (3.39 inch) wide with 6 mm (0.24 inch) space between columns.
    5. On the first page, the top 50 mm (2") of both columns is reserved for the title, author(s), and affiliation(s). These items should be centered across both columns, starting at 35 mm (1.375 inches) from the top of the page.
    6. The paper abstract should appear at the top of the left-hand column of text, about 12 mm (0.5") below the title area and no more than 80 mm (3.125") in length. Leave 12 mm (0.5") of space between the end of the abstract and the beginning of the main text.
    TYPE:

        Face: To achieve the best viewing experience for the review process and conference proceedings, we strongly encourage authors to use Times-Roman or Computer Modern fonts. If a font face is used that is not recognized by the submission system, your proposal will not be reproduced correctly.

        Size: Use a font size that is no smaller than 9 points throughout the paper, including figure captions. In 9-point type font, capital letters are 2 mm high. For 9-point type font, there should be no more than 3.2 lines/cm (8 lines/inch) vertically. This is a minimum spacing; 2.75 lines/cm (7 lines/inch) will make the proposal much more readable. Larger type sizes require correspondingly larger vertical spacing.

TITLE: The paper title must appear in boldface letters and should be in ALL CAPITALS. Do not use LaTeX math notation ($x_y$) in the title; the title must be representable in the Unicode character set. Also try to avoid uncommon acronyms in the title.

AUTHOR LIST: The authors' name(s) and affiliation(s) appear below the title in capital and lower case letters. ICEMDIA 2024 does perform DOUBLE BLIND REVIEWS, so be sure NOT TO INCLUDE the author list in your submitted paper.

ABSTRACT: Each paper should contain an abstract of approximately 100 to 150 words that appears at the beginning of the document. Use the same text that is submitted electronically along with the author contact information.

KEYWORDS: Enter up to 5 keywords separated by commas.

BODY: Major headings appear in boldface CAPITAL letters, centered in the column. Subheadings appear in capital and lower case, either underlined or in boldface. They start at the left margin of the column on a separate line. Sub-subheadings are discouraged, but if they must be used, they should appear in capital and lower case, and start at the left margin on a separate line. They may be underlined or in italics.

REFERENCES: List and number all bibliographical references at the end of the paper. The references can be numbered in alphabetic order or in order of appearance in the document. When referring to them in the text, type the corresponding reference number in square brackets as shown at the end of this sentence. An additional final page (the 12th page, in most cases) is allowed, but must contain only references to the prior literature. The end of the document should include a list of references containing information.

ILLUSTRATIONS & COLOR: Illustrations must appear within the designated margins. They may span the two columns. If possible, position illustrations at the top of columns, rather than in the middle or at the bottom. Caption and number every illustration. All halftone illustrations must be clear in black and white. Since the printed proceedings will be produced in black and white, be sure that your images are acceptable when printed in black and white (the electronic, conference-distributed proceedings).

PAGE NUMBERS: Do not put page numbers on your document. Appropriate page numbers will be added to accepted papers when the conference proceedings are assembled.

Peer Review Process

 

All manuscripts are subject to blind peer review by competent reviewers in the relevant field and are expected to meet standards of academic excellence. The reviewers identity remain anonymous throughout the process. The review process is as below:

      1. The conference secretary performs a preliminary review to confirm if the papers meet basic publishing standard or not, and then papers will go through a similarity check by Crosscheck, a professional checking tool for plagiarism.

      2. Submitted papers that don't pass preliminary review or are suspected as plagiarism will be rejected directly. Furthermore, a encourage re-submission or don't encourage submission decision may be given according to the overall situation of the paper.

      3. Submitted papers that pass the preliminary review will be sent to the program chair who is in charge of the peer review process. He appoints at least two suitable conference committee members as reviewers for each paper whose areas of expertise have to match with the topics of the papers.

      4. In case no suitable reviewers can be drawn from the conference committee, the conference secretary will invite external reviewers to help with the review who are experts in related fields and volunteer to help.

      5. Normally, each paper should require at least two individual review reports. The conference secretary must make proper arrangement and keep an eye on the reviewers feedback. If review reports are not returned within stipulated time, the conference secretary should find new reviewers in time to fill up.

      6. The conference chair will make decisions about submissions, which include: Strongly accept, accept, marginally accept, reject. The conference chair remains the right to make final decision, who can also seek help from other conference committee members.

      7. The conference secretary then will inform the authors, and papers which need revisions will be required to be sent back within stipulated time, and only revised papers that pass the second review will be accepted.
