Submission Guidelines

Review manuscripts should describe original work and should be no more than 7 pages in the IEEE double column proceedings format, including tables, figures and references. In order to download manuscript templates for IEEE conference proceedings use the following link: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.

Papers can be submitted directly to EDAS: click here to access EDAS.

Note that accepted papers up to 6 pages will be published with no additional charge. A 7th page may be included upon payment of an extra page fee during registration. Papers exceeding 7 pages will not be accepted. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present the paper. Only registered and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Accepted papers will be included in the ISCC 2026 proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore. The ISCC proceedings have been indexed in the past by ISI, DBLP and Scopus. This makes the ISCC conference one of the publication venues with very high visibility and impact in both Computer and Communications areas.

If you are using LaTeX, please analyze your article’s LaTeX files prior to submission to avoid delays in publishing. The IEEE LaTeX Analyzer will identify potential setbacks such as incomplete files or different versions of LaTeX.

Topics of Interest

ISCC 2026, in its 31st edition, will provide an insight into the unique world stemming from the interaction between the fields of computers and communications. ISCC 2026 will provide a high-quality international technical forum for experts from industry and academia to exchange ideas and present results of on-going research and emerging technologies in most state-of-the-art areas of computers and communications. The program will cover a number of symposia in addition to demos, posters, tutorials and workshop sessions.
