IEEE Paper Format

IEEE Format has to be strictly followed.

Formatting the text as two columns, in Times New Roman, 10 pt.
Including a byline, an abstract, and a set of keywords at the start of the research paper
Place figures, tables, and equations at the top or bottom of a column, not in the middle
We encourage authors to use Mendeley, EndNote, Zotero or other reference tools for Referencing rather doing it manually. Ensure to use IEEE Reference Style
Author names, departments, affiliation, email ID mentioned in the manuscript will be used and NO further changes are entertained by IMED-2026 Scientific Committee

Submission of Papers

Publication will be done in IEEE Xplore, which is indexed in Scopus and other databases. Therefore, authors are required to submit their papers adhering strictly to the IEEE format.
The final paper should be written in English, with a maximum length of eight printed pages, including figures, and must strictly follow the IEEE manuscript template.
The working language of the conference is English, which will be used for all printed materials, presentations, and discussions.
All submitted papers must be original and unpublished.
A double-blind peer review process will be followed.
Any accepted paper included in the final program must have at least one author attend and present the paper at the conference.
Submissions, refereeing, and all correspondence will be conducted electronically.
The Microsoft CMT service will be used to manage the peer-review process. This service is provided free of charge by Microsoft.

Registration Details
