Welcome to the 3rd International Conference on Interactive Media, Smart Systems and Emerging Technologies (IMET 2023) – Technically Co-Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society. IMET is the flagship conference of CYENS Centre of Excellence (http://www.cyens.org.cy). CYENS constitutes a centre of excellence and a joint venture between the three public universities of Cyprus (University of Cyprus, Cyprus University of Technology and Open University of Cyprus), the Municipality of Nicosia, the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (Germany) and University College London (UK).
This year IMET is moving to Barcelona (Spain) for the first time, and it will be held at the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC).
The conference is dedicated to the exploration of current practices in the use of emerging and interactive technologies. The interdisciplinary research topics presented and discussed at IMET render it a rather unique venue that promotes a dearly needed blend of technology and applied research. Given the very distinct needs and methodologies of both these great scientific fields, the conference must ensure that the presentation and discussion of results is accessible to both audiences and still has great scientific value. It also must serve different mindsets in terms of publications which is why, for instance, we offer post-conference invitations to the best submissions for inclusion in special journal issues which is greatly relevant especially to educational researchers. A small exhibition will also complement the conference with technology driven artistic installations from local and international researchers and artists.
The main theme of IMET 2023 will be on Interactive Media in relation to:
- Novel Technologies
- Applications
Submission Guidelines
Accepted papers must be presented orally in English at IMET 2023. This event uses a triple-blind reviewing approach, so please be sure to remove all personal data (such as authors, affiliations, funding, etc.) from your submission. References to your own work should be made in the third person to maintain anonymity. Reviewers are asked to keep confidential all materials sent to them for evaluation. Non-anonymous submissions will be rejected without review. One registered participant may present up to two papers but each accepted paper, or poster, with multiple co-authors should have a different conference registrant.
Electronic submission of all papers is mandatory and will be conducted using the Easy Chair system. Papers must be written in English, must be anonymized, and must be formatted according to EG standards (A4 template) (regardless of category). IMET accepts 4 types of papers: full papers (8 pages), short papers (4 pages), poster papers (2 pages) and demo papers (2 pages), including references. Authors should ensure that their paper fits within the specified length for their submission track, including references. They should make sure that the work is original and checked through their institution’s plagiarism software/account (i.e. Turnitin).
All authors will be notified of paper acceptance after the reviewing period is finished. There is no rebuttal process. Successful submissions will be asked to carefully review their paper and make any minor modifications requested by reviewers, before uploading the camera-ready version. All papers will be checked for plagiarism by the reviewers. All accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion to EG Digital Library.
