TPC GUIDELINES:

In addition to reviewers comment, kindly follow the TPC guideline. It is Mandatory.

The following guidelines MUST be FOLLOWED even REVIEWERS have or have not mentioned towards Camera Ready otherwise, we will NOT Submit to IEEE Xplore:

1. DO NOT Change any font style and size, Section heading, subsection heading, etc.

2. Title should be written with First Capital Letter of Each Word

3. No Title of author like Dr, Professor, Students should be written

4. No Designation of authors should be included, NO IEEE Member or Fellow should be included

5. Authors from the same affiliation should be written in SINGLE COLUMN separated by comma. No need of including email of each author. One email is enough

6. Abstract should be limited to around 150 words.

7. Keywords should be included after abstract

8. Maintain consistency in writing

9. Section I: Introduction - normally has standard 5 paragraphs, while first two para provides basic idea of the subject, motivate the readers, explains the importance of doing this work (with few citation – citation must be in sequence), the 3rd para must say what is existing recently and what are the gaps still found. This gives us the opportunity to mention our original contribution and novelty of this work in 4th para. The last, 5th para includes what is there in rest of the manuscript. No Figure and comparison table of literature is accepted.

10. DO NOT include Literature Section or State of Art or Recent Work in Section II. Since, we have included in 3rd para of introduction, it is NOT required. All literature (only recent and most relevant should be a single para which is 3rd para of Introduction).

11. Section II can be System Architecture, Methodology, Design, depending on work. (that is other sections can be titled according to the work)

12. Conclusion section title can be only Conclusion. Don’t split the contents in multiple para.

13. Acknowledgement (if any) should not be given any Section No.

14. Moreover, university where faculty/scholar works is not to be acknowledged.

15. Reference should not have Section No.

16. Try to keep Fig. and Table either on top or bottom of the page where first time cited. They can be cascaded if 2 or more fig./tables are kept together.

17. Restrict references to Not more than 11-13. In fact, a standard conference has typically 7-9 references. But, if needed, 11-12 is fine. Not more than this. Keep only relevant and recent work in references. Avoid online (weblink) as reference. If necessary and if research paper is not available on that topic, a link can be included but must be in proper format like when accessed and so on.

18. Formatting of reference must be maintained.

19. Figure and Table qualities must be good. Label, legend, axis text must be visible. Their placement and size should not go beyond the column width. Keep page length not more 4-6 pages.

20. In NO case, you should change the template and font. Keep the template and format of the text, table, according to the template in your manuscript.
