ICDCM is a flagship conference of the IEEE Power Electronics Society, organised by PELS Technical Committee 1: Control and Modeling of Power Electronics. It brings together researchers, engineers and industry professionals from academia, government and industry for discussion of the latest advances in DC grid technologies and applications. The programme features keynote speeches, tutorials, special sessions, and technical and poster sessions.
Submission Guidelines
Prospective authors are invited to submit two-page digests in English via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icdcm2027.
Digests must be submitted as a single PDF file, a maximum of two pages including references, and must use the IEEE conference paper template (two-column, A4), available from https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html
Accepted digests will be developed into full papers of up to 6 pages for presentation at the conference. Conference proceedings will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference, including from IEEE Xplore, if the paper is not presented at the conference by an author.
