Call for papers/Topics

The field of Electrical, Electronics, and Intelligent Systems is currently undergoing a massive convergence driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI), Renewable Energy Transition, and Edge Computing.

Below is a comprehensive hierarchy of topics and subtopics designed for researchers, conference organizers, or students looking to specialize in the 2025–2026 technological landscape.

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:

1. Electrical & Power Systems

The focus has shifted from traditional generation to decentralized, "smart" grids and the massive electrification of transport.

Smart Grids & Microgrids:
- Integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs).
- Low-inertia power systems and Grid-forming inverters.

3. Intelligent Systems & Robotics

This is the "brain" of modern engineering, where traditional control theory meets modern machine learning.

Autonomous Systems:
- Agentic AI: Autonomous agents that can perform end-to-end workflows.
- Path planning and obstacle avoidance for Swarm Robotics.
- Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for precision agriculture.
Human-Machine Collaboration:
- Cobots (Collaborative Robots) in smart factories (Industry 5.0).
- Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) for prosthetic control.

4. Signal Processing & Communication

As we look beyond 5G, the focus is on lower latency and higher frequency bands like Terahertz (THz).

Future Communication (6G & Beyond):
- Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) for signal boosting.
- Visible Light Communication (VLC) and Li-Fi.
- Quantum communication and post-quantum cryptography.
Advanced Signal Processing:
- Real-time biomedical signal processing (EEG/ECG) for point-of-care.
- Computer Vision for defect detection in semiconductor manufacturing.
- Deep Learning for audio source separation and noise cancellation.

5. Emerging Interdisciplinary Frontiers

These topics represent the most recent "cross-pollination" between fields.

Digital Twins:
- Creating real-time virtual replicas of cities or power plants for predictive maintenance.
Cyber-Physical Security:
- Protecting critical infrastructure (grids, water plants) from state-sponsored hacks.
- Hardware-based security (Physical Unclonable Functions - PUF).
Green Computing:
- Developing AI models that require significantly less electrical power.
- Energy-harvesting sensors that run on ambient light or thermal gradients.
