REGISTRATION FEES

Registration is required for all participants of IEEE GLOBECOM 2014.
Authors must be registered by Wednesday, 3 September 2014.
Please do not share your registration confirmation code with anyone else. Although the code enables submission of up to three papers, it can only be used once, by you, to create an author account for these submissions.

PLEASE REMEMBER: At least one author of an accepted paper must register at the FULL OR LIMITED (RG01-RG06) rate even if the author is a student. For authors presenting multiple papers, one registration is valid for one person; however, it can cover up to three (3) papers on which the person who is registered is an author or co-author. Please enter your EDAS paper numbers below.

EDAS Paper #______________ EDAS Paper #_______________ EDAS Paper #_______________

The registration confirmation code you receive enables you to upload your final manuscript to the EDAS submission site. Sharing this code with anyone else is unethical and consequences apply. This EDAS Author Account must be accessed using the original submitting author log-in information.
Authors with over length papers (7th page – US$100 over length charge) should pay for these extra pages via EDAS when they upload the final versions of their accepted papers.

PLEASE NOTE: To be published in the IEEE GLOBECOM 2014 Conference Proceedings and to be eligible for publication in IEEE Xplore®, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full or limited (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference unless the TPC Chair grants permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance of the event and who is qualified both to present and answer questions. Non-refundable registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final IEEE formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. For authors with multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to 3 papers. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the IEEE GLOBEOCM 2014 Conference Proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore® as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.
