Paper Submission & Publication
Complete manuscripts must be electronically submitted through the conference submission website: https://www.icamal2026.com/index/user/login.html.
Submitted manuscripts should be within six (6) pages, including figures, tables, and references. All submissions MUST be in PDF format.
Accepted papers will be included into the conference proceedings according to the presentation and the authors’ choice, which will be published to the third party publisher and would be indexed by EI (Compendex), etc. Authors of selected qualified papers will be invited to submit revised and expanded version of their papers to special issues of international journals (SCI), such as IEEE T-ITS, T-ASE, FSMJ. Currently, the special issue of IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering (T-ASE) has been approved.
Note:
This package contains the official IEEE conference paper templates for preparing manuscripts in both LaTeX and Word formats. Authors must use these templates when preparing and submitting their manuscripts to ensure correct formatting for review and publication. For the most up‑to‑date official templates and authoring resources, you can also visit the IEEE Author Center on the official IEEE website.
