SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS - 2016 IEEE SIXTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMMUNICATIONS AND ELECTRONICS (ICCE)
27 - 29 JULY 2016, HA LONG BAY, VIETNAM
(http://www.icce-2016.org/, http://www.hut-icce.org/)

The International Conference on Communications and Electronics (ICCE) is a prestige bi-annual international conference series in the area of Electronics and Communications. Following the past successful IEEE ICCE 2014, which received 228 submissions from 30 countries with the acceptance rate of 42%, the 6th IEEE ICCE (IEEE ICCE 2016) looks for significant contribution to various topics in communications engineering, networking, microwave engineering, signal processing and electronic engineering. The conference will also include tutorials, workshops, and technology panels given by world-class speakers. Besides the scientific activities, as IEEE ICCE 2016 will be held in the spectacular World-Heritage Site – Ha Long Bay, here, your passion of nature discovery will be awakened.
