Reference: See EDAS Instructions for Authors

EDAS uses a ‘receipt/confirm’ email-based process for creating an account if you don’t have one, and registering to submit a paper. It is recommended that you register the paper as soon as practical; do not wait until the deadline, in case there are any issues with receiving the EDAS emails and confirmations etc.

To use EDAS, you need to create an EDAS account. After you receive the EDAS confirmation, you then can register your paper and specify a lead author(default is yourself). Then you upload your PDF abstract. Your abstract for the paper will be reviewed and then you will be notified whether it is accepted. Once your abstract is accepted, you will be able to submit a full paper for review eligible to be published in IEEE Xplore.

Here are the steps involved:

  1. Author Registration:Register a “lead author” with EDAS at https://edas.info/N26193(if the lead author is not already registered). The lead author will submit the paper. EDAS will send an email with the account password. The author’s email address and the password will be used to access the system to submit the abstract or paper for review and later the final paper. Note: you should name all the authors of the paper at the time of registration.
  2. Change PasswordCredentials in EDAS (optional). Change the default password to one that is easier to remember.
  3. Abstract/Paper Registration:When logged in to EDAS, register your paper and submit the Abstract at https://edas.info/N26193. This is a unique site with EDAS for the NMDC 2019 Conference. Select the appropriate Track for your submission. 
    • Register the paper:Provide paper title, keywords, and a short description of the work (20-100 words). EDAS will use your account info as the primary author.

  4. Next, after the deadline you will receive an email from EDAS whether the Abstract was accepted.
