*********************************
Call for Speakers & Panels
*********************************

Are you an executive, strategist, or professional working in the field of IoT, Big Data, AI/ML, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, or Robotics? The purpose of the COINS Pavilion is to present content that is interesting to both the technical and business audiences that attend COINS. There are three options when submitting a proposal:
1. Panels (45 minutes long). The topic of each panel should be interesting, timely, and relevant to multiple segments of COINS attendees. Controversy is appropriate and encouraged.
2. Individual (Technical or Demo) oral presentations (20 minutes long) without any paper submission. If any presenters would also like to submit a technical research paper for publication, then that option is available, if desired. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed for acceptance in IEEE Xplore, and there is no guarantee that papers submitted by invited presenters will be accepted.
3. Mini-keynotes (each 10 minutes presentation | ideally C-level speakers).

If you are interested in being a speaker and/or recommending a speaker, demo a product/service, or submitting a panel proposal, please, provide the following information to Farshad Firouzi ( farshad.firouzi@duke.edu):

• Organizer(s) name, affiliation, bio, and email address
• Presenter(s) name, affiliation, bio, and email address
• Title and abstract (max 500 words)

*********************************
Ph.D. Forum – Call for Submissions
*********************************

The Ph.D. forum will be hosted by the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA) and will be organized as a poster session with 1-minute 1-slide oral introductions from the students to get the attention of the audience. The forum will provide an opportunity for graduate students to explore their research interests in an interdisciplinary workshop under the guidance of a panel of distinguished experts in the field of Computer-aided design and Circuit and Systems for the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data and Security/Privacy. The Ph.D. forum aims at bringing together young Ph.D. students to exchange their research, ideas, and experiences.

The following two classes of students are eligible:
• Students who have finished their Ph.D. thesis within the last 12 months
• Students who are close to completing their thesis work.

Submission: A 2-page extended abstract describing the novelties and advantages of the thesis work as a single PDF file via the submission website. The abstract should also include name and affiliation.

*********************************
Call for Special Sessions, Workshops, and Tutorials
*********************************

IEEE COINS seeks proposals for i) Special Sessions consisting of peer-reviewed papers focused on in-depth treatment on a topic of timely interest to the IEEE COINS audience. Special session papers will undergo the same intense review process as regular conference papers, and submission is not a guarantee of acceptance. The selected papers will be published as part of the IEEE COINS Proceedings; ii) Tutorial Sessions consisting of discussions and summary results about advanced topics relevant to the conference. Tutorials intend to highlight innovative ideas positioned on each field's frontiers covered by the conference. Tutorials provide participants the chance to explore innovative trends or innovative applications, learn new techniques from experts in the field, and gain knowledge and insights. Typical tutorials run 1.5-2 hours, although longer half-day tutorials (two-session blocks of 1.5-2 hours each) may be considered; iii) Workshops are half- or one-day events that aim to foster active discussion on issues related to specific fields. The typical structure of a workshop will include a number of papers (peer-reviewed) presentations and/or invited talks (without paper submission). Accepted manuscripts will be included in the COINS conference proceedings as workshop papers and will be indexed in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.

All proposals (1 to 2 pages) should be submitted via email to Jan Haase ( jan.haase@ieee.de), Farshad Firouzi ( farshad.firouzi@duke.edu), Alessandro Savino ( alessandro.savino@polito.it), Azin Ebrahimi ( mebr@kth.se), Hussam Amrouch ( amrouch@iti.uni-stuttgart.de), and Khelil Abdelmajid ( Abdelmajid.Khelil@haw-landshut.de). Please include the required information indicated below:
• Title and abstract of the workshop/tutorial/special session
• Organizers and their affiliations (including short bios)
• Structure, format, and the expected duration of the tutorial/workshop (for a tutorial/workshop proposal)
• Planned invited speakers (if any) for workshop/tutorial proposals (it is not necessary, nor a requirement)
• Provide a sample call for papers (if any) for a workshop and Special Session proposals, the number of published papers (if any), and, if available, a list of prospective authors and contributions
• CFP Dissemination plan (workshop and special session proposals)
• Provide the abstract of the tutorial/workshop (for a tutorial/workshop proposal)
• If the workshop/tutorial was previously held, provide the location (i.e., which conference), date, number of published papers (if any), and number of attendees at the last event
