MESAS’22

NATO M&S COE requests all interested researchers and technicians of academic, industrial or military research centers to send an abstract, to be evaluated by members of MESAS’22 Technical Program Committee.

Your papers are assigned to reviewers who will start evaluating them, but some of you have not submitted your paper yet.

Please do it as soon as possible according to the given below deadline.

Preliminary conference timeline was set as follows:
Abstract Submission:        JUNE 02, 2022   has been extended   JULY 14, 2022
Abstracts will be approved soon.

Final Papers Upload:              AUGUST 11, 2022 has been extended SEPTEMBER 1, 2022
Assignment of Reviewers:      AUGUST 22, 2022
Review:                   until   SEPTEMBER 22, 2022
Decision:                until   SEPTEMBER 29, 2022

Authors of approved abstracts will be asked to prepare a full paper following the Springer template, then to present the paper during the MESAS’22 Conference.
Full papers selected by the Scientific Committee will be included in the post conference proceedings. Previous MESAS proceedings are indexed in the ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Indes – Science (CPCI-S) and EI Engineering Index (Compendex and Inspec databases).

ABSTRACTS AND THEIR REGISTRATION

Authors are requested to send abstracts (a brief description of about 200 words is sufficient but not limited ).

Please, also add the PDF format of your abstract (optionally enriched by additional information, comprehensive description, drawings, architecture, algorithms and so on).

Please note that SPRINGER company is now providing for the MESAS’22 new paper collection platform in the EquinOCS system. Your new registration to this platform is required. After registration, you can use this direct MESAS’22 conference link to upload the abstract.

FULL PAPER TEMPLATE AND COPYRIGHT

When submitting the full papers (based on Abstract approval) via EquinOCS system, please use the following instruction and templates requested by LNCS Series Producer and author’s guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word for the preparation of their papers.
