Authors should submit papers as PDF files following the IEEE style guidelines for conference proceedings. Each manuscript shall include a 50-100 word abstract and shall not exceed 6 pages. All accepted papers will be published by IEEE. The authors of selected papers will be invited after the symposium to prepare an extended version of their papers to be published in some journals.

Travel Support for Students:

We plan to secure some money to support students to attend ISMVL 2026. If the first author of the paper is a student and the student is going to present the paper at ISMVL, then he/she is eligible to receive a travel grant. When you are submitting a paper, please indicate whether the first author is a student.

The proceedings of ISMVLs are in the Ei compendex that is the broadest and most complete engineering literature database available in the world.
In conjunction with the symposium, the following workshop will be held.
Separate call will follow.
