A ICIC conference paper is most often sent back for formatting, not content: margins, front-matter order, and page numbering. The proceedings chairs checks these before anything else. This template sets the correct structure from the first draft, following the Indian Control Conference Indian Control Conference formatting guidance.
It is a formatting shell for a ICIC conference paper, built to the official rules. It covers the title page, approval/signature page, abstract, table of contents, chapters, references, and appendices, with a consistent citation style. Confirm the current requirements in the official guidelines before you begin. See also the author resources.
Set up the front matter and chapters in the required order, apply the correct margins and spacing from the manual, and use the prescribed citation style throughout. Keep figures and tables captioned and numbered as specified.
The signature failure mode is margin, front-matter order, and page-numbering rules. Second is inconsistent citations. Third is missing or out-of-order front matter. Fix all three against the official guidelines before submitting.
The shell mirrors what the proceedings chairs checks first: structure order, margins, and citation consistency. Use the Indian Control Conference Indian Control Conference formatting guidance as the source of truth.
| Element | ICIC requirement |
|---|---|
| Figures/tables | Captioned and numbered per manual |
| References | IEEE numbered style - Papers must follow the IEEE double-column format for conferences, which uses IEEE reference style (numbered in square brackets in order of citation). |
| Peer review | Single-anonymous (single-blind) - While the ICC guidelines state that 'submitted papers will undergo a peer review process, coordinated by the Program Committee,' they do not specify the review type. As ICC follows IEEE conference format and 'most IEEE publications use the single-anonymous review format' (per IEEE Author Center), single-anonymous is the default unless otherwise specified. |
