Prospective authors are invited, in the first instance, to submit papers for oral presentations in any of the areas of interest for this conference. Authors should submit a paper with 6~10 pages in length, including all figures, tables, and references. If you want to submit more than page limitation, you can add up to 2 extra pages (total MAX. 12 pages) with the extra page charges (100 USD per page). ** Papers exceeding the page limits will be rejected without review. ** All accepted papers will be published by conference PDF proceeding(without ISSN/ISBN). Distinguished accepted and presented papers in CSA 2026, after further revisions, will be published in the special issues of the following international journals (Pending): (Limited to authors who submitted Copyright documents) All accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering (LNEE) - Springer indexed by EI and SCOPUS. Instructions for papers in the Springer's LNEE (Note that the paper format of LNEE is the same as that of LNCS) - Prepare your paper in the exact format as the sample paper for LNEE. Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the proceedings. Please read the authors' instructions carefully before preparing your papers. - Springer accepts both Microsoft Word and LaTex format in the Lecture Note Series. However, CSWRG does not accept the use of LaTex. Therefore, you should use the Microsoft Word instead of using LaTex (The paper will be excluded from the proceeding if you use LaTex).
