The 7th IEEE International Conferences On Cybernetics And Intelligent Systems (CIS), and Robotics, Automation And Mechatronics (RAM)
15-17 July, 2015, Angkor Wat, Cambodia
[www.cis-ram.org]


The IEEE International Conferences on CIS & RAM have always been held together, to exploit the synergistic relationship between both areas. CIS-RAM was first held in Singapore in 2004, followed by Thailand in 2006, Chengdu (China) in 2008, Singapore in 2010, Qingdao (China) in 2011, and Manila (Philippines) in 2013. CIS-RAM 2015 will be held in Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Angkor Wat, which literally means “temple city” in Khmer, features a picturesque Buddhist temple complex. It is a powerful symbol for Cambodia, and a source of national pride. The conference program includes half day tour to visit these temples.

Invited Sessions:
The conference will feature invited sessions on specialized topics of interests. The invited sessions are intended to usher in-depth discussions in special areas relevant to the conference theme.

Social Programme:
The conference will organize a half-day tour to the world heritage site – the Ankor Wat Temple.

Interactive Sessions:
Static and dynamic display and presentation of research work will be arranged during conference period for maximum interaction among the conference delegates.

Best Paper Awards:
The conference will provide four awards: best conference paper award, best innovation award, best student paper and best interactive session paper.

Paper Submission
Papers must be written in English and should describe original work. The length of the paper is limited to a maximum of 6 pages (A4 size, single spacing, Times Roman of font size 10, double columns format, in pdf form), including figures, tables and references. Papers will be published in the conference proceedings only if at least one of the authors is officially registered.
