At least one author of accepted papers must register and pay by February 12th to be able to submit the final paper. Please follow this link to view all the Policy and Publication Requirements.

For each Technical Publication and Technical Presentation, a minimum of one author must be registered at the Full Conference Author rate. One author registration fee can cover up to a maximum of two (2) technical papers or presentation only submissions plus two (2) additional poster presentations.

An author registering at the author rate with more than two (2) technical papers or presentation only submissions to present at the podium, must request a co-author to register.
