Please follow the indications given in your acceptance letter.Before submitting the final version, authors are expected to revise their paper taking into account the feedback from the reviewers.

All final submissions will be included in the material distributed to the conference participants. However, the IEEE ARM 2019 Proceedings in IEEE Xplore will contain only full technical papers accepted for IEEE ARM 2019 publication, and not more than 25% crosscheck similarity from iThenticate. The authors can employ itenticate service from https://www.ithenticate.com.cn/. It should be noted that the papers whose similarity is more than 25% would not be included in IEEE Xplore.

For papers accepted to be published in the ICARM Proceedings, six pages in the standard IEEE Conference Paper Format based on the LaTeX template or Microsoft Word template are allowed for each paper. A maximum of two additional pages are permitted at an extra charge of USD 100 per page payable at the time of submitting the camera-ready version of the paper.

At least one of the authors listed on the paper must be registered for the conference when the final manuscript is uploaded. Each full registration may only upload one paper. To link excess page fees with your paper number, please complete the final submission information for your paper before registering for the conference.

Step-By-Step Guidelines to Submit Your Final Paper

Step 1

Prepare your final paper using the available LaTeX or Microsoft Word templates and following these paper preparation instructions. Make sure to have the latest templates and do not change the formatting in any way. If your paper is accompanied by a video, an explicit reference to the accompanying video should be present in the text of the paper.

Step 2

Check that the names of all authors and their order is identical in the PaperPlaza submission system, the paper, the summary slide, and the accompanying video (if applicable). Please write author names with only the first letter capitalized, that is, use “Firstname Lastname” in all instances and do not use “FIRSTNAME LASTNAME” anywhere.

Step 3

Create a PDF version of your paper and perform the IEEE PDF compliance test. If your paper does not pass the test, you cannot continue and may read the PDF Test Help to revise the format of your paper until it passes the test.

Step 4

For full papers only, please prepare one PowerPoint slide (and only one) that summarizes your paper. You must only use the PowerPoint template available here. Please do not change the template and keep fonts and font sizes as prepared in the template.

This summary page is not required for the Abstract-only track.

Step 5

If your paper is accompanied by a short video (max. 10MB), please do not use special codecs (coders/decoders) in order to provide as much portability across platforms as possible. Using MPEG-1 or MPEG-4 video formats is strongly recommended. Accepted video contributions will be included in the conference proceedings and also in IEEE Xplore. There, the video will appear as an enhanced object next to the PDF of the summarizing text (a sort of short paper). If your paper features a video attachment, please prepare the following two plain text files:

(1) Summary.txt file (max 1 KB). Describe in five sentences or less the contents or value of the video. This file helps IEEE Xplore users to make downloading decisions.

(2) ReadMe.txt file (max 10 KB). This file must include the following three sections:

(a) Description: An overall description of the objects and what the audience can expect to gain by downloading them;

(b) Contact Information: The author should provide contact information in case users have questions regarding the extended material. IEEE will not provide any technical support.

Note that both of the above files should be in plain text format and have a .txt extension. They are needed by IEEE in order to include the video in IEEE Xplore.

Step 6

Download Copyright template and edit your information, you can refer to instructions or Copyright.

Step 7

Register for the conference, indicating the paper number and any extra pages, through the author registration site, and email the register image or file which indicates successful registration to icarm2019@gmail.com. In your email, please use the subject heading “Successful registration for Paper Number xx”(for example: Successful registration for Paper Number 100).

Step 8

Upload the following three files in PaperPlaza:

(1) A PDF file of your paper (max 6 MB) that has passed the IEEE Xplore compliance test,

(2) For full papers only, a single summary PowerPoint slide (max 1 MB) based on this template, and

(3) Upload the vocher of successful registration (jpg) ,

(4) Upload Copyright, you can download the template, and

(3) For full papers only and if applicable, a video (max 10 MB) plus a Summary.txt and ReadMe.txt file accompanying your paper (cf. Step 5).
