 Welcome to NADIM'23!

About the Conference

Natural disasters are more common than ever, and the necessity for disaster preparedness has grown over time. It is not enough to just pick up the pieces after a natural disaster. Vulnerable communities and populations require systems, tools, and policies to predict and reduce the effects of natural disasters. Creating these solutions necessitates the careful integration of several types of data, ranging from simulations and experimental measurements to surveys and qualitative investigations, as well as knowledge, viewpoints, and lessons acquired from various intellectual fields. Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technology such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, drones, and the Internet of Things (IoT) have the potential to transform catastrophe risk prediction, prevention, reduction, and response. The goal of the International Workshop on Modern Technologies for Natural Disasters Management (NaDiM 2023) is to provide a forum for the discussion of novel research directions and challenges in Natural Disaster Management (NDM) among experts from academia and industry.

– The number of pages is limited to 8 for one paper at AICCSA 2023 conference and up to 6 pages at the Ph.D. Forum and the workshops.

– Up to 2 extra pages are allowed per paper and will be charged $100 per page.

– Every paper needs to have at least one author presenting the paper.

Discount for multiple papers 

Authors of multiple accepted paper will benefit from a discount as follows: second paper 30% off, third+ papers at 50% off. However, if any author attending the conference needs to pay the full registration fee.

STANDARD FULL Registration Fees 

• IEEE member ($550)

• non-IEEE member ($660)

• Student (IEEE member) ($385)

• Student (non-IEEE member) ($465)

• IEEE retired/life member ($305)

The AICCSA 2023 conference STANDARD FULL registration includes access to the scientific program, conference materials,  workshops, tutorials, keynotes, panels, PHD Forum, posters sessions, and the publication of your paper by IEEE, coffee breaks, lunches according to the program, gala dinner (additional tickets for any accompanying persons @ $40 per ticket) and conference social activities. This fee does not include accommodation (hotel expenses), travel, visa application, etc.

Non-Standard Registration Fees (see notes for each category)

• All Days Registration (in person or Virtual)  ($300)**

•Local participants from inside Egypt ($70 ~2200 EGP) *

•Student Participants from Low Income Countries (Scholarships)**

• PhD Forum Registration (Virtual) ($70) ***

** This will cover access to all conference activities including the author’s pack but DOES NOT include coffee breaks, lunch and gala dinner. If virtual, you will have an online access to all sessions. 

* the number of accepted papers which will be considered for this rate will be based on external sponsorship to cover the difference. Therefore, if full sponsorship is obtained, you will have the benefits of the Standard Full Registration (at least 15 full sponsorships are already guaranteed). If not, we will consider One-Day Registration or All-Days Registration options, again based on the sponsorship to cover the actual costs.
