Students from other years may also participate by writing articles describing projects they have worked on during the current academic year. They must request enrollment in the SCSS course on the Virtual Campus and follow the same registration process as second-year master’s students.

  • Include relevant and up-to-date references, preferably from Google Scholar.
  • Explicitly mention the contributions of the project and paper in the introduction (e.g., scientific contributions, innovations, optimizations, implementations, etc.).

SCSS-AC Procedure

  • Papers must be written in IEEE conference article format (4-6 pages).
  • Submissions are valid only with the approval of a scientific advisor.
  • Papers will be reviewed by a committee of 3-5 faculty members from the Faculty of Automation and Computers.
  • There will be no revision or rebuttal stage.
  • Each paper will have 10 minutes for an oral presentation, followed by 5 minutes for questions from the committee.
