Paper Submission

The ISSCC 2024 Paper-Submission Web Site is now closed

Deadline for Electronic Submission of Papers:
September 6th 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (19:00 GMT)

Electronic Submission of Abstract, Draft Manuscript, and Pre-Publication Material

Authors should submit 2 items for review: 1) An informative and quantitative Abstract; 2) A Draft Manuscript including figures for the Digest of Technical Papers. Be sure to read the Pre-Publication Guidelines (summarized below) carefully.

The submission Website will be available starting July 1, 2023. You may consult the Website for instructions at any time after this date. To submit a paper, go to: https://submissions.mirasmart.com/ISSCC2024  to upload the manuscript and provide the requested additional information. The abstract and manuscript must be submitted by September 6, 2023 at 3pm EDT. During the submission process you will be asked for a suggested subcommittee (by subject area) to review your submission, however this subcommittee may be changed by the ISSCC organization to ensure the best review quality. A sample abstract and draft Digest paper can be found at the ISSCC submissions Website (single-column double-spaced format is required for the paper-review process).

Additional Submission Details

The submission Title must be concise (target ≤12-14 words) and clearly describe the topic of the paper. It should not include more than one or two key metrics or techniques from described work. If multiple key metrics are included in the title, they should be mutually consistent (e.g. the title should not claim performance for one test configuration and power for another test configuration).

The Abstract must be submitted to the Submissions Website. It must not exceed 500 characters (including spaces). The Abstract must be factual and provide as complete and quantitative a description as possible, including specific and concrete performance data. Claims such as “new”, “advanced”, “novel”, “high-performance”, and “high-speed” are not acceptable in the title or abstract. Please refer to the sample abstract on the ISSCC Website. Note that ISSCC reserves the right to modify the paper title and abstract when technically appropriate.

The Manuscript consists of two PDFs uploaded to the Submissions Website. The first, for the draft manuscript text, is limited to 4 pages in single-column double-spaced format, using 12 pt Arial Narrow font with fewer than 10,000 characters (including spaces). The second, for the figures, must not exceed 10 pages with one figure including caption per page. The first seven figures, including a die photo, must be referred to in the text. In addition, up to three optional supplementary figures can be included for review purposes. Tables should be included in the figures, not in the text. We strongly encourage you to include a comparison table as one of the figures. .

If a die-photo and/or comparison table is available, they can be included as part of the 7-figure limit. Supplementary figures will NOT be part of the final manuscript, and should NOT be referred to in the text of the paper, but serve ONLY as additional material for the reviewers. These 3 figures should be described with no more than 4 sentences in their captions with figures labeled as “Fig. S1, S2, S3”. References are to be entered individually into the submission website. Up to six references are allowed. Do not include your references in your manuscript. For further details, see the ISSCC Submissions Website. Papers exceeding the length limit will be immediately rejected.

Policy Regarding Paper-Submission Deadline

Due to the timing constraints associated with the paper review process, Paper Submissions must be received by the deadlines shown below to be considered by the Program Committee.

The Conference Pre-Publication Policy: As the premier global forum for the debut of technical innovations in integrated circuits and systems, ISSCC cannot accept papers whose key innovative ideas and results have already been disclosed to the public. To assess the novelty of a paper, the program committee evaluates its content against all background or baseline information that was pre-published by the authors. Disclosures considered as pre-publication include: (1) Publicly available data in articles, manuals, data sheets, trade journals, application notes, other conferences, and press releases, which contain substantial technical information such as schematics, principles of operation, architectures, and algorithms. (2) Some previously, publicly-copyrighted material, such as in an IEEE publication. (3) Material submitted for which publication decision is still pending. (4) Material accepted for publication elsewhere. (5) Material available on a public website at any time up to the first day of the next ISSCC. Disclosures not considered pre-publication include: (1) Electronic copies of articles posted by authors on publicly accessible websites or preprint servers such as arXiv.org. IEEE policy regarding sharing and posting of articles is described in the IEEE Author Center. (2) Preliminary datasheets or a product announcement with no technical details. (3) Presentation at a limited-attendance workshop with no proceedings. A key element here involves the ability to find any handouts via electronic means or in a printed catalog. For example, if handouts are available to attendees of a workshop, but are not subsequently downloadable or orderable, this is acceptable. (4) Information from an advance program or information from IEEE-sponsored press meetings after publication or formal press release. (5) Information provided under non-disclosure agreements (NDA) to customers, partners, or other parties, (6) Final, signed versions of Master’s or Ph.D. theses available in open repositories, either printed or online. A thesis published for profit is an exception, and is considered prepublication. (7) Published patents and patent applications. Authors must disclose all material that may fall into the pre-publication category as part of the submission process.
