We invite original research papers, extended abstracts and demos for the workshop “3rd International Workshop on Developing Biomedical Engineering Innovations: Medical Devices based on Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence to support Public Health”.
In this edition of the workshop, alongside the submission of full papers and extended abstracts, participants are also invited to submit technologies and innovations for demonstration, either individually or as part of a group. Submissions may include innovative prototypes, proof-of-concept implementations, mock-ups, software tools, platforms, and fully developed technologies ready for real-world use.
The organizers encourage participants to submit technological innovations incorporating hardware and/ or software solutions that support digital public health. These innovations may encompass medical devices and healthcare technologies designed to enhance the daily activities of patients and healthcare professionals in home and/or hospital environments. Such technologies are not limited to physical devices; they may also include software solutions with practical applications that support digital public health and facilitate demonstrations, implementation, or real-world use.

Submission guidelines
We encourage interested author(s) to submit either a full paper, an extended abstract or a demo abstract. The author(s) of an accepted paper/ abstract, which is presented in-person at DPH 2027 in London, will be included in the conference proceedings – extended abstracts will be included in Frontiers proceedings, and full papers will be submitted for possible inclusion into IEEE Xplore.
For submitting a Full Paper, please follow the instructions:
- All submissions must be not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.
- Scope: Original empirical, methodological or sufficiently developed conceptual research.
- The papers must range between 4‑8 pages, including references and any appendices.
- Papers should conform to the IEEE double column format: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html
- Papers must be anonymised: the names and affiliations removed, and any references to previous works either substituted with “anonymised” or rephrased.
- All submissions must be submitted in PDF format using the Easychair submission system. Click on the submission button below and choose the “DPH2027 Workshop – 3rd International Workshop on Developing Biomedical Engineering Innovations” track.
- Please paste your Abstract in the Abstract field in the Easychair system for ease of processing and review allocation.
NOTE that:
- Full Paper submissions will be reviewed by three reviewers from the PC and SPC committees and assessed in terms of their quality, relevance to the conference, originality, significance, correctness, and clarity.
- All accepted papers will have their own DOI.
- Accepted papers will need to incorporate reviewers’ comments and re-submit their paper by the Camera-ready deadline. Instructions will be provided.
- Papers accepted for publication must have at least one author registered and must be presented in person at the conference in order to be considered for publication by IEEE Xplore. Papers from no-show authors will be removed from the proceedings.
- An accepted paper may be selected for either oral or poster presentation depending on review score and topic specificity.
For submitting an Extended Abstract, please follow the instructions:
- Please format your submission using Times New Roman, 12 pt font size, with justified alignment. The submission must not exceed 1000 words, excluding the reference list. References are compulsory and should be included in the submission. A maximum of two figures or tables may be included.
- Scope: Research results, educational interventions, reviews or well-specified work in progress.
- Extended Abstracts could follow the standard structure: Introduction, Background, Methods / Datasets, Results, and Conclusion. Alternatively, computer science and engineering abstracts can follow alternative structure such as Introduction, Background, Framework / Architecture, Implementation, Results (if available), Novelty and Challenges and Conclusion.
- Submissions must be anonymised: the names and affiliations removed, and any references to previous works either substituted with “anonymised” or rephrased.
- All submissions must be submitted in PDF format using the Easychair submission system. Click on the submission button below and choose the “DPH2027 Workshop – 3rd International Workshop on Developing Biomedical Engineering Innovations” track.
- Paste your first section (Aims/Abstract/Overview) to the Abstract field in the Easychair system for ease of processing and review allocation.
NOTE that:
- Abstract submissions will be reviewed by two-three reviewers from the PC and SPC committees and assessed in terms of their quality, relevance to the conference, originality, significance, correctness, and clarity.
- Accepted Extended Abstracts will have to incorporate reviewers’ comments and re-submit their abstract by the Camera-ready deadline. Instructions will be provided.
- An accepted abstract may be selected for either oral or poster presentation depending on review score and topic specificity.
For submitting a Demo Abstract, please follow the instructions:
Please format your demo abstract using Times New Roman, 12 pt font size, with justified alignment. The submission must not exceed 1000 words, excluding the reference list. References are compulsory and should be included in the submission. A maximum of two figures or tables may be included. Extended Abstracts could follow the standard structure: Introduction, Background, Methods / Datasets, Results, and Conclusion. Alternatively, computer science and engineering abstracts can follow alternative structure such as Introduction, Background, Framework / Architecture, Implementation, Results (if available), Novelty and Challenges and Conclusion.
Please note that:
- Submissions must be anonymised: the names and affiliations removed, and any references to previous works either substituted with “anonymised” or rephrased.
- All submissions must be submitted in PDF format using the Easychair submission system. Click on the submission button below and choose the “DPH2027 Workshop – 3rd International Workshop on Developing Biomedical Engineering Innovations” track.
- Each demo proposal will be reviewed by two independent members of the PC and SPC committees.
- Demo proposals must be submitted in English.
- At least one author of an accepted contribution must register for the conference and attend in person to present their work in order for their paper to appear in the programme and be published in the proceedings.
- The use of Generative AI tools is permissible but must be disclosed and the Scientific Committee reserves the right to exclude any proposal that is generated solely by AI tools.
To complement the submitted report, participants must submit a video of up to 3 minutes showcasing the proposed technology. The video should demonstrate how the technology achieves its intended objectives and provide evidence supporting the originality and contributions described in the report. Additionally, participants must include in the report a link to the uploaded video, hosted on a cloud-based service of their choice. The video is a mandatory component of the submission and will assist reviewers in evaluating the functionality, innovation, and practical applicability of the proposed technology.
Reports and videos will be evaluated by the Program Committee. Participants of accepted technologies will be invited to present and demonstrate their solutions during the workshop. Participants may use presentation slides to support their demonstrations and provide technical information about the technology being showcased. Participants are responsible for transporting, setting up, and preparing their technology for demonstration at the workshop.
During the workshop, participants will have up to 15 minutes to present and demonstrate their technology. Following each presentation, participants will be invited by the workshop organizers to answer questions from the audience, fostering discussion and engagement around the technologies being showcased.
Please note: If the number of submissions exceeds the available time within the workshop, selected demonstrations may be showcased as part of the dedicated DPH2027 Posters & Demos Exhibition. This will provide an opportunity for all accepted demos to be presented to the wider conference audience, allowing all conference attendees – not only those participating in the workshop – to discover and engage with the technologies.
