The 2025 IEEE 21th International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE 2025) is one of the three flagship conferences of the IEEE Robotics & Automation Society and provides a primary forum for cross-industry multidisciplinary research in automation.
CASE 2025 will be held on August 17 – August 21, 2025, in Los Angeles, California, USA. The pre-conference workshops will be held on August 17, 2025. The conference will focus on Secured and Trustworthy Automation: Automation systems such as collaborative robotics, self-operating systems and vehicles, smart manufacturing, healthcare, farming, transportation & logistics, and smart cities, increasingly rely on secured and trustworthy automation. Research is needed to overcome vulnerability and bias due to imperfect system design, data collection, machine learning, or control.
The conference will cover a wide range of topics on Systems, Automation, Autonomous Systems, Discrete Event Systems, Smart Cities, Robotics, Building Automation, Automation in Meso, Micro and Nano-scale, Big Data, Machine Learning, Information and Communication Technologies, etc.

Additional information
Review process
The IEEE RAS Conference Editorial Board (CEB) is responsible for handling the review process for the CASE. The CEB consists of an Editor-in-Chief, approximately seven Editors, and approximately 78 Associate Editors.
Interested in Participating as a Reviewer or Editor? More info is available here.
Papers submitted to the IEEE CASE follow a single-blinded review system. Thus, the identities of the authors are known to the reviewers, but the identities of the reviewers are not disclosed to the authors. Authors do not need to anonymize the names of the authors when submitting their papers.
CC BY license
Authors who require a cc by license (such as researchers funded by UKRI): If you require a CC BY license for your paper, please follow the guidelines described under option 2 on the following website: https://open.ieee.org/ieee-compliance-with-ukri/
Guidelines for Language, Margins, Formats & Templates
All papers submitted to CASE 2024 must be written in English and formatted in the standard IEEE 2-column format. Authors should prepare their papers based on the LaTex template or Microsoft Word template. Only PDF files will be accepted. Please download the templates from here:
Further information of how to use the templates are available on the Papercept submission portal for LaTex or Microsoft Word.
Note: Authors are responsible for submitting their paper in the required format. Please do not modify the official templates! All papers that are accepted will be published as submitted by the Author. The Conference is not responsible for editing or correcting errors in the paper.
Plagiarism
All submissions will be tested for similarity and overlap with prior published material using the iThenticate tool. In case of possible violations of the IEEE ethics rules in publishing, the case will be investigated.
Generative AI language tools (e.g., ChatGPT) for publishing and reviews in IEEE CASE conferences
Notes for authors:
Please note that manuscripts generated by generative AI language tools such as ChatGPT are prohibited. If such AI tools generate a small portion of the manuscript, a full reference must be provided. Nevertheless, if generative AI language tools generate inappropriate language, plagiarized content, errors, mistakes, incorrect references, or misleading content, and these contents are included in the manuscript, the responsibility rests entirely on you and the co-author(s).
Generative AI language tools cannot be listed as an author.
Generative AI language tools may be used for light-editing of the author’s original text, such as for spelling and grammar corrections. Authors need to acknowledge such editorial use in the acknowledgement section.
Notes for reviewers:
IEEE has the responsibility to safeguard all the content of any paper submitted to its conferences, e.g. CASE. CASE has the responsibility for safeguarding the integrity of the paper review process. Therefore, any reviewer uploading any content from a paper submitted to a CASE conference to a generative AI language tool is strictly forbidden.
Use of a generative AI language tool for editing your review outcome is also strictly forbidden.
How to create a IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF
Authors can use PDF eXpress to create or check that manuscripts are IEEE Xplore-compatible PDFs. IEEE PDF eXpress is a free service allowing authors to make IEEE Xplore-compatible PDFs (Conversion function) or to check PDFs that authors have made themselves for IEEE Xplore compatibility (PDF Check function).
Instruction for first-time users:
- Log in to the IEEE PDF eXpress site https://ieee-pdf-express.org
- Create your PDF eXpress Account: Select the New Users – Click Here link.
- Enter the following:
- 59546X for the Conference ID
- your email address
- a password
Previous users of PDF eXpress need to follow the above steps, but should enter the same password that was used for previous conferences.
