Call for paper: IC-ICTES 2013
Amphawa, Samutsongkram, Thailand

The 4th annual International Conference on Information and Communication Technology for Embedded Systems (IC-ICTES 2013) is to provide an international forum for researchers and industry practitioners. Our goals are to share their new ideas, original research results and practical development experiences from all embedded system-related areas including ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing, embedded system design, development of new HW/SW-related theories and techniques in embedded systems, information and communication technology for supporting development of embedded systems, and information and communication technology used in embedded systems.

Proceedings will be published by TAIST Tokyo Tech Program, National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA). The first page should include the paper title, the names and the complete mailing addresses of all authors, and the e-mail address of the corresponding author. Each paper should consist of up to 200-word abstract, up to 5 keywords. No page number should be printed. All the text, figures and reference must be between 4-6 double-column A4 pages with font size of 10 pts. Authors MUST use IEEE manuscript submission guidelines for their initial submissions. All papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format only, using the conference management tool. The submitted papers must not be published or under consideration to be published elsewhere.
