PH.D. FORUM ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 13 April 2017
CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS IN IEEE XPLORE
STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR OVERSEAS STUDENTS
NSF STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS AVAILABLE FOR US BASED STUDENTS
The 3rd IEEE International Conference on Smart Computing (SMARTCOMP 2017) draws upon many application disciplines such as transportation, energy, environmental protection, resource management, healthcare, security, banking, entertainment, and social media.
The Ph.D. Forum at SMARTCOMP 2017 provides an opportunity for Ph.D. students to present their work in progress to the scientific community and obtain individual feedback from leading researchers in the field.
The Forum will be structured as a poster presentation session by the students, followed by collective discussions. The student presentations will be interleaved with speeches by leading researchers, who will provide their own perspectives on current and future research in the field, as well as on how to best purse a Ph.D. in this context.
Current Ph.D. students in the early stages of their career are encouraged to submit a 2-page abstract about their research to be considered for the Ph.D. Forum. The student should be the sole author, although contributions of the advisor and others should be acknowledged.
NSF student travel grants are available for US based students. Instructions on how to apply for the travel grant are available on the conference website: here
Submission Guidelines:
Ph.D. Forum abstracts should be no more than 2 pages in length, including figures, tables, and references.
Submissions will be reviewed by the Ph.D. Forum committee to ensure quality, relevance, and potential benefit from attendance to the Forum. There will be no separate registration fee for the Forum. Participating students will only need to register to the main SMARTCOMP conference. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to participate in person to the Forum.
Authors are requested to submit manuscripts in standard IEEE proceedings format in PDF. All submissions must be typeset in double-column IEEE format using 10pt fonts on US letter paper, with all fonts embedded. Submitted abstracts must include the contact information of the authors. Please make sure you use the latest version of the templates to prepare your submissions.
The IEEE LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates for conferences can be found at IEEE Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings. Further information for authors can be found at the IEEE Computer Society Information for Authors for Conference Publishing Services.
