Publication and submission
DDECS 2024 seeks original, unpublished contributions of the following types:

Regular Papers (6 pages) presenting novel and complete research work
Student Papers (4 pages) from students eager to discuss their on-going research
Student Demos (2 page proposal) from students interested in presenting practicalresults, targeting one of the conference topics, and competing for an award
Embedded Tutorials (1-2 page proposal)
The DDECS review process is single-blind, i.e. the author information is not hidden.Accepted Regular and Student papers (not demos) will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore.
