FOAN2023 11th International workshop on FIBER OPTICS in ACCESS NETWORKS

30 and 31 October 2023

FOAN2023 11th International workshop on FIBER OPTICS in ACCESS NETWORKS

30 and 31 October 2023

FOAN2023 is planned to be held in conjunction with ICUMT2023

The primary goal of FOAN 2023 is to bring together and present the latest research in the field of fiber optics technologies aimed to end-users, both residential and business. The idea behind the workshop is to create an opportunity to learn new things by gathering scientists and experts from academia, industry, and operators in the field that will during the workshop share their knowledge, experience, and ideas.

Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements

All previous published proceedings are listed in the Web of Science database.

The journal Fiber and Integrated Optics will publish a Special issue based on presented papers/presentations

Previous FOANs

After the successful workshops in Moscow (2010), Budapest (2011), St. Petersburg (2012), Almaty (2013), Brno (2015), Lisbon (2016), Munich (2017), Sarajevo (2019), Ljubljana (2021) and Valenica (2022) we will continue this year with a workshop as a full physical event in Ghent, Belgium

Deadlines

Abstract submission: July 5;

Author's area

Submissions must be in IEEE format.

Templates can be donloaded from: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html

Rgistration for FOAN2023 and ICUMT2023 are shared

Prepare your paper for final upload and IEEE xplore publication

Dear Author,

Thank you for choosing FOAN2023 to present your valuable research,

The following are the steps you should take to upload the final version of your paper and present it:

1. Careful read reviewer comment and incorporate it in your final version, if decision for your paper is ACCEPTED there will no more revision.

2. Prepare the PDF file with following characteristics (if a status of your paper is "Accepted for presentation only" ignore this step):

o IEEE single-space, two-column format;

o The paper must be correctly formatted to fit on A4;

o Page numbers must not be used;

o Template can be downloaded from:

https://www.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-org/ieee/web/org/conferences/conference-template-a4.docx

o Do not use page numbers, it will be added automatically;

o Do not insert any footers or headers.

o Do not use any PDF security features in submitted PDF files,

3. Check your PDF file by IEEE PDF Express tool:

a. Go to IEEE PDF eXpress site:

https://ieee-pdf-express.org/

b. Enter the following conference ID: 59927X together with your email address and password.

c. Continue to enter information as prompted.

d. Upload source file(s) for Conversion; and/or PDF(s) for Checking

(don’t use different ID, in that case your paper will not be send to IEEE xplore)

4. Register at least one registration fee should be paid per accepted paper;

As in previous years, registration for FOAN2023 should have been completed on the ICUMT website; Registration for FOAN is valid for ICUMT and vice versa,
all ICUMT social events (as welcome reception, gala dinner and lunches) are also available for FOAN attendees.

c. Registration link: https://icumt.info/2023/registration-form

d. If you need the receipt where stay just FOAN2023 - it is possible, just contact chair at mail: foan.workshop@gmail.com;

5. Check did you signed IEEE copyright,

Note that without this document your paper cannot be submitted for indexing in the IEEE Xplore® database.

6. Prepare your presentation.

a. it can last 15, 20, 25, or 30 minutes;

the default time is 20 minutes;

h. once your time slot is set please stick to the allotted time.

FOAN2023 and ICUMT2023

FOAN2023 will be held in conjunction with ICUMT2023, which means that:

Registration for FOAN2023 is also valid for ICUMT2023.
Social events are shared;
The author guidelines for scientist papers are the same

However:

FOAN2023 has the full independent program policy;
FOAN2023 will have the separate proceeding
