Information for Authors


Contributions to AIM 2027

Contributed Papers: Contributed papers are normally up to 6 pages (max 8 pages) and go through a rigorous review process. All accepted manuscripts must be presented by the authors at the conference, will be published in the conference proceedings, and will be submitted for inclusion in IEEEXplore, subject to formatting and copyright requirements.

Invited Sessions/Papers: Invited sessions consist of 4 to 6 thematically related invited papers that will be presented together at the conference. Invited session proposals must include a brief statement of purpose and extended abstracts of the included invited papers. Invited papers are submitted and reviewed following the same process as contributed papers, and are included in the proceedings.

Workshops: Half-day or full-day workshops will be in one of two categories: (1) Tutorial Workshops focused on educating attendees about an emerging topic and (2) Research Workshops focused on bringing together experts to discuss an emerging field. Tutorial and workshop proposals must include a statement of objectives, a description of the intended audience, and a list of speakers with an outline of their planned presentations. Unless specifically requested, individual tutorial and workshop presentations are not peer reviewed, and do not appear in the proceedings.

Special Sessions: Special sessions offer a venue for exposing attendees to new and developing research fields and discussing specialized, novel, and not strictly technical topics (such as products) that do not fit in the other submission categories. Special Session proposals must include an abstract of the special session.

Late Breaking Results: Poster presentations on late-breaking mechatronics research results will be presented during the conference. To enable presenters to share their most current findings, take note that the deadline for posters is significantly later than the deadline for papers. Posters will be peer-reviewed.
