ACSD seeks papers describing original work which has not been previously published and is not under review for publication elsewhere. The page limit for regular papers is 10 pages.

In addition to regular submissions, described above, there will be a tools section. Tool paper submissions are limited to 6 pages. They will be presented at the conference venue in an interactive session.

All regular and tool paper files must be prepared using the latest IEEE Conference Publishing Services (CPS) proceedings guidelines for 8.5" x 11" two-column format. Conference proceedings will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their papers at the conference and will be required to sign the IEEE copyright release forms.

A special session for PhD students will be organised during the conference. PhD presentations will be selected on the basis of an abstract up to 4 pages (including references) that does not need to follow any particular format. The accepted papers are expected to be presented during the session and will be published in the local proceedings.

All papers should be submitted via EasyChair.
