Final Manuscript Upload Process

 Please complete all steps below to ensure that your paper is included in the final conference proceedings CD. Authors are to use only the IEEE PDF eXpress^TM tool to generate their final manuscripts in PDF format.

Generating the PDF file using IEEE PDF eXpress^TM

• After creating your final manuscript(s), use IEEE PDF eXpress^TM to obtain IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF(s) at http://www.pdf-express.org/.

• Click on the 'New Users - Click Here' option to create a new IEEE PDF eXpress^TM account. Conference ID: crowncom10x.

• Upload source file(s) for conversion and/or PDF(s) for checking. The site contains extensive instructions, resources, helpful hints, and access to technical support.

• Proofread the generated PDF file thoroughly. There could be missing symbols, equations, graphs and other reported errors. Please make necessary corrections to the source file and repeat the conversion process again. If problems persist, please use the online help provided in the IEEE PDF eXpressTM site for advice.

• Please forward the email you received from IEEE PDF eXpress^TM to the publication chair, Dr. Mohamed Ghozzi. This is for him to counter-check your submission. For any reason that you need to regenerate the PDF file again, please repeat this procedure.
   

IMPORTANT: Proceed to submit your final manuscript only after you obtain IEEE Xplore-compatible PDFs.

Final Manuscripts Submission

• Please note that each manuscript is limited to 5 pages.

• Final manuscripts must be uploaded into the ASSYST system: http://assyst-online.org/proceedings/index.php

• Log into ASSYST to set your profile.

• IMPORTANT: If you are only one of the co-authors who is NOT responsible for uploading the accepted paper, you will still have to set your profile BEFORE the camera-ready deadline otherwise you may not be listed among the co-authors in the proceedings.

• Once logged in, go to the Registration section of the conference website and use the online registration link to register for the conference.

• At least one author for each accepted paper must register at full rate (non-student) in order for the paper to be included at the conference and on the final conference proceedings CD.

• Upload your paper to ASSYST by 9 May 2010.

IMPORTANT: When uploading the camera-ready version, please make sure to add your co-authors in the same order as they appear in the file. Should you have any questions regarding ASSYST, please contact us at assyst@icst.org.
