<div style="direction:ltr; font-size:10pt">Building on the success of the past years' conferences, IEEE CNS 2018 welcomes poster submissions to be presented during the conference. A poster submission should be a 2-page abstract, which summarizes the key merits
of proposed ideas, presents initial results, and identifies challenges to develop a complete solution. Poster submissions will be evaluated by the Posters Session Committee based on the novelty and the potential to stimulate discussions and promote collaborations.
Posters should be submitted via EDAS at https://edas.info/N24385. Please follow the same template for regular conference papers available on http://cns2018.ieee-cns.org. </div>
