The 2025 IEEE World Forum on Public Safety Technology (WF-PST), is set to foster engagement and dialog among researchers and practitioners on addressing current and future needs and improving current and emerging technologies for public safety applications. Consideration will also be given to identifying the need for new technologies that could be used for public safety applications. Proposal submission opportunities for the 2025 event will be open soon.

ATTENTION AUTHORS: AUTHOR GUIDELINES FOR FINAL PAPER SUBMISSION
Paper Publication Guidelines
Conference papers that are accepted and presented at the conference will be published in IEEE Xplore. All submissions are to follow the IEEE Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings template to aid with reviews and publishing. Papers are requested to be 5-6 pages in length, in English. Papers of length up to 8 pages will be accepted for an additional fee.
To be published in the 2024 WF-PST Conference Proceedings and to be eligible for publication in IEEE Xplore, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference, and the paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference unless granted permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance and who is qualified both to present and answer questions. Other options, such as on-demand recordings or virtual presentations for those who are not able to travel, are being decided on a case-by-case basis.
The use of artificial intelligence (AI)–generated text in an article shall be disclosed in the acknowledgements section of any paper submitted to an IEEE Conference or Periodical. The sections of the paper that use AI-generated text shall have a citation to the AI system used to generate the text.
Please visit the IEEE Author Center Conference Author Submission Policies for IEEE Publishing Guidelines and Principles.
IMPORTANT IEEE POLICY ANNOUNCEMENT: The IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (including its removal from IEEE Explore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.
Papers are reviewed on the basis that they do not contain plagiarized material and have not been submitted to any other conference at the same time (double submission). These matters are taken very seriously and the IEEE will take action against any author who engages in either practice. Follow these links to learn more:
