ASMC 2026 Call For Abstracts is now closed. ASMC 2027 Call for Abstracts will open in August 2026. Join our mailing list to get notified. 

Please review below information, including important due dates before submitting an abstract on the submission site. 

Abstracts must be original, non-commercial work that has not been and will not be published anywhere else.

All technical manuscripts, regardless of presentation format, will be published in the ASMC 2026 proceedings on IEEE Xplore. Authors who missed the call for papers could consider submitting an abstract in the 'Breaking News' category.

We strongly recommend that authors receive management approval, including travel support, in advance of abstract submission. If you cannot confirm that your paper will be presented in person, either by yourself, a co-author, or a qualified replacement speaker, your paper will not be published. 

It is critical that you include in your timeline company approval cycles, which may be a longer process than the preparation of the actual manuscript and presentation. Please note the following dates and share this information with your co-author(s) and management. Conference registration is a requirement for participation and to receive the ASMC 2025 proceedings. Dates are subject to change.

Oral Presenters
Oral presenters must submit their final, company-approved presentation in PowerPoint and PDF format by the deadline. ASMC PPT Template should be used. Presentation slides are pre-loaded to the presentation computer prior to the start of the session. The PDF presentation will be shared with registered attendees. Be sure to remove any information or slides you do not wish to share. Oral presentations are allotted a total of 20 minutes (16 minutes for presentation + 4 minutes for Q&A). 

Upload presentation files in the My Presentation section of the ASMC submission site. 

Poster Presenters
Poster Presenters are responsible for printing and setting up their poster at the conference. If you would like to share a PDF version of your poster with the attendees, please upload to the My Presentation section of the ASMC submission site. 

For poster presentations, we recommend that authors use the ASMC poster template rather than multiple pages, as it looks more professional. The available size of the Posterboard / Frame is 8'w x 4'h (2.4m x 1.2m). Your poster should be a minimum ANSI E 44w" x 34"h (or ISO A0, 1.189m x 0.84m) or larger, to fit within the frame. Keep in mind that a good poster has lots of figures, graphs, and a minimum amount of text in a large font. Please see Poster Session Presenter Instruction for more details.

NOTE: 
Only those presenting at the conference should register as speakers. Co-authors, admins and colleagues etc. should register as regular conference attendees.
