Multiple Submissions:

Papers presented at MT Summit XV must represent new work that has not been previously published. It is the responsibility of the author(s) to inform the program chairs of any potential problem with respect to this requirement. Authors submitting a similar paper both to MT Summit XV and another conference or workshop must inform the program chairs by email (mtresearchers@amtaweb.org), specifying to which other conference or workshop they are submitting their work. If the paper is accepted and presented at MT Summit XV, then it must be withdrawn from other conferences and workshops.
