SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Submissions should be a two-page abstract that follows the IEEE formatting guidelines. Please refer to the IEEE submission instructions for details. There is no need for double-blind submissions (names, affiliations, and email addresses are therefore required). Please be as specific as possible in describing what you will display or demonstrate for your demo. The demo session will be held in person, and at least one co-author of the accepted demo is required to present in the conference. If a demonstration requires special arrangements or additional equipment, please detail it in the submission. All additional equipment/needs are subject to budget approval. Abstracts of accepted demos will be included in the IEEE MILCOM 2025 Proceedings. Accepted and presented abstracts will be submitted to IEEE Xplore®.
Demo submissions should be made via EDAS.

For questions, please, email Drs. Amr Haj-Omar (amr@emerson.com) and Joao F. Santos (joaosantos@vt.edu). The email subject must be: “MILCOM 2025 Demo Session Question”.
