Author Registration Requirements
- For an accepted paper to be presented at the conference, at least one author must be registered for in-person or virtual attendance.
- The Author Registration Deadline is Monday, March 3, 2025.
- For an accepted paper to be included in the proceedings/IEEE Xplore, it must be covered by a full IEEE Member or Non-Member registration fee. Each full registration for in-person or virtual attendance can cover publication of up to two papers.
- Student or Life Member registration fees do not ensure paper publication. Please contact us for special consideration if this creates undue hardship.
- Paper publication requires presentation at the conference, either in-person or virtual as a paper or poster presentation. IEEE reserves the right to exclude any accepted paper that was not presented from distribution after the conference, including removal from IEEE Xplore.
Proceedings Paper
- Contribution to the conference proceedings and IEEE Xplore is strongly encouraged.
- High-quality two-page abstracts that follow the guidelines for proceedings papers can be directly re-submitted for the proceedings. Alternatively, authors may write a separate, more expansive proceedings paper.
- Detailed guidance is provided in the abstracts template at https://epapers2.org/ifcs-eftf2025/ESR/samples.php
- IEEE policy requires a copyright release for each proceedings paper. Without a copyright release on file, your paper cannot be published in the conference proceedings. Further instructions will be included in your decision email.
- Multiple submissions are not acceptable for any proceedings contribution. Please do not submit any manuscript concurrently under active consideration for publication elsewhere.
