COVERING THE EXPENSES FOR PAPER PUBLICATION

Do not jeopardize the publication of your work in the Proceedings! An accepted paper will be published in the proceedings only if a full-fee registration payment for one of the authors is received and correctly processed by 22 October 2011 - no exceptions.

Only member or non-member fees are allowed to cover the publication of an accepted paper. Student registration fees cannot be used to guarantee the publication of an accepted paper. If the author registering to cover the paper publication is a student, he has to pay the appropriate member or non-member fee. Members to whom the society bylaws grant special discounts (e.g., Life members of the IEEE) cannot use the discounted rates to cover the publication of an accepted paper: they have to pay the member fee.

One author registration will cover the publication expenses of only ONE accepted paper. For each additional accepted paper associated to the same registration, a 50 US$ printing contribution will be charged. In the case no registration has been received and correctly processed to cover the paper publication, the conference organizers will contact the authors before the paper is removed from the proceedings.

REFUND POLICY

Conference registration will not be refunded (in full or partially) if it is required to cover the publication expenses of an accepted paper - no exception, even in the case of denied VISA.

Lunch and banquet tickets that are included in the registration fees will not be refunded if not used.

REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION

Upon successful registration, a confirmation email will be sent to the registrant. If there is a problem with your registration, you will be contacted directly by the SMFG Conference Administrator. For further information concerning your registration, please, contact only the ROSE Conference Administrator. We would like to remind you that the other organizers have absolutely no information about your registration: therefore, we warmly recommend that you do not waste your time in contacting them.
