Call for Papers

The ICFDA is the largest event in fractional calculus, held every two years since 2004. It offers the most up-to-date and complete view of Fractional Differentiation and its Applications, with the widest coverage of theoretical and application fields, and is attended by a worldwide audience of resaearchers and engineers from academia and industry. The congress program will include papers selected on the highest standard by the IPC, according to the IFAC guidelines, and published in Diamond Open Access in partnership with Elsevier in the IFAC-PapersOnline series, hosted on the ScienceDirect platform.

Submission Instructions

Papers and all other proposals must be submitted electronically using the IFAC PaperPlaza conference manuscript management system: www.ifac.papercept.net. All submissions must be in PDF format, written in English, and prepared according to IFAC format, see: ifac.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php.

 

Areas and Keywords

The fractional-order differentiation of arbitrary orders takes into account the memory effect of most systems. The order of the derivatives may also be variable, distributed or complex. Recently, fractional-order calculus became a more accurate tool to describe systems in various fields in mathematics, biology, chemistry, medicine, mechanics, electricity, control theory, economics, and signal and image processing.

Topics of interest include, but not limited to:

  • Automatic Control & Stability
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Biology & Biomedicine
  • Earth Science
  • Electrical Engineering & Electromagnetism
  • Electrochemistry
  • Epidemics
  • Finance and Economics
  • History of Fractional-Order Calculus
  • Image Processing
  • Mathematical methods
  • Mechanics & Viscoelasticity
  • Mechatronics
  • Physics
  • Robotics
  • Signal Processing
  • Singularities Analysis and Integral Representations
  • Special Functions
  • System identification & Modeling
  • System Analysis & Dynamics
  • Thermal Engineering
  • Variational Principles

Paper Categories

Contributors are invited to prepare and submit high quality original papers within the broad spectrum of the FDA areas. 

There are three paper categories for the ICFDA 2025:

  • Regular papers will have 6 pages length limitation in acceptance. Authors may upload longer manuscript up to a maximum of 8 pages total. However, each page in excess of 6 will incur an additional overlength page charge. At the time of initial submission, regular papers can be up to 8 pages for review.
  • Discussion papers are introduced to encourage participation especially from industry and from colleagues outside the traditional academic control community. Such papers should be submitted in the form of extended abstracts typically between 2 and 4 pages in length, and the congress will accept a limited number of them based on ad hoc peer reviews. Authors will present their contribution in oral or interactive sessions. Discussion papers will appear only in the congress preprints, not in the congress proceedings.

 

Submission Categories

  • Regular contributions presenting theoretical or application driven research with main focus on the theoretical or methodological contribution as well as application papers presenting research with main focus on concrete contributions to industrial, economics, or social fields.
  • Open invited track contributions are to be part of open invited tracks. Such tracks have no limit on the number of papers, and organizers are expected to solicit contributions, and the track proposals are listed on the IFAC WC 2023 website leaving open the possibility for anyone to contribute. 
  • Demonstrator contributions are for promoting and showcasing research or education-oriented devices, innovative prototypes and transferring technologies to the enterprise. 

 

Pre-Conference Tutorials

details will be available soon.

 

Preprints, Proceedings & Copyright Conditions

Preprints, proceedings and copyright conditions are as requested by IFAC. For details, see here.

"All publication material submitted for presentation at an IFAC-sponsored meeting (Congress, Symposium, Conference, Workshop) must be original and hence cannot be already published, nor can it be under review elsewhere. The authors take responsibility for the material that has been submitted. IFAC-sponsored conferences will abide by the highest standard of ethical behavior in the review process as explained on the Elsevier webpage, and the authors will abide by the IFAC publication ethics guidelines.

Accepted papers that have been presented at an IFAC meeting will be published in the proceedings of the event using the open-access IFAC-PapersOnLine series hosted on ScienceDirect. To this end, the author(s) must grant exclusive publishing rights to IFAC under a Creative Commons license when they submit the final version of the paper. The copyright belongs to the authors, who have the right to share the paper in the same terms allowed by the end user license, and retain all patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights (including research data)."
