Important notes

Authors are required to submit material that is original and that has not been published, or submitted for consideration, elsewhere. Any accepted paper included in the final program is expected to have at least one author or qualified proxy attend and present the paper at the conference. Authors of the accepted papers included in the final program who do not attend and present at the conference will be added to a "No-Show List".
