Speakers/Moderators
Final Papers are due February 1, 2008.
Authors/Speakers Policy
All papers and presentations accepted for the conference constitute agreement that the author(s)/speaker(s)
will register for the conference at the appropriate fee(s), attend the conference, and make their presentation(s) in person.
One-Person/One-Presentation Policy
In order to give room for maximum number of individual speakers and to enhance the diversity in presentation, the conference will have a one-person/one-presentation policy. Therefore, authors/speakers who have more than one abstract accepted are advised to make arrangement to have their co-author(s) present the other paper(s).
Non-Paper Presentations
If an author whose abstract has been accepted is not able to submit the paper by the due date of February 1, 2008 for publication in the conference proceedings, he/she may still present the paper at the conference by registering to attend the conference by the Early-Bird registration deadline of February 1, 2008. If registration by February 1 is also not possible, the author must inform the General Chair or Technical Co-Chair(s) in writing by February 1, 2008, assuring that he/she will register later and present the paper at the conference
in person. Otherwise, the presentation will be excluded from the final program schedule of the conference.
