Authors are invited to submit an Extended Abstract (4-5 pages) presenting the originality, significance, and relevance of their work. The extended abstract should include:

• Paper title;
• Authors’ names and affiliations;
• Abstract;
• Introduction outlining the problem and the current state of the art;
• Description of the proposed contribution;
• Preliminary results obtained and their potential applications;
• Conclusions;
• References.

All submissions will undergo a peer-review process. Authors will be notified of the acceptance or rejection of their submission. Accepted authors will then be invited to prepare a Final Paper, taking into account the reviewers’ comments and recommendations.

NOTE: excessively short or very preliminary abstracts that do not allow a proper evaluation of the technical content might be desk-rejected.

To ensure consistency in the conference proceedings, Authors are required to prepare their manuscripts using the official IMEKO World Congress templates.
