Paper Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit their full papers by August 30, 2023. Prospective authors are invited to submit high quality original Full or Short papers via the Easy Chair submission site (link), by choosing the appropriate track. Full papers should describe novel research contributions with evaluation results and are limited to 7 pages. Short papers, limited in length to four (4) pages, should be more visionary in nature and are meant to discuss new challenges and visions, highlight early research results, and explore novel research directions.
All submitted papers must be unpublished and not considered elsewhere for publication, should be written in English and formatted according to IEEE Template. Each submitted paper will pass through the standard IEEE peer-review process and, if accepted and presented at the Conference, will appear in the conference proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore digital library. Paper contests will include a Conference Best Paper Award and a Best Student Paper Award.
All submitted manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by at least 2 program committee members. Prospective authors should send their manuscripts electronically through the easychair submission system as mentioned below:

Online Presentations:
Official conference language is English. All submissions and presentations will be in English. Authors who are interested to present their papers in ICACNGC 2023 but could not attend the conference, they can present their works by a Virtual Presentation.
Best Paper awards:
The overall Best Paper Awards will be given and recognized during the conference
Similarity, plagiarism and self-plagiarism:
Since ICACNGC 2023 will be submitted to Springer which policy requires all Springer content to be screened for possible plagiarism. All submitted papers to ICACNGC 2023 will be checked and scanned using Turnitin or Ithenticate, before being sent to reviewers. Note that to be submitted to Springer, the overall similarity rate of a paper should not exceed 25 percent, and the similarity rate to a single source should not exceed 10 percent. The score and report are provided to assist you in revising your manuscript, if necessary. The conference will not be able to provide you a score or a report for the revised manuscript.
