REGISTRATION FEES

Registration is required for all participants of IEEE ICC 2015.
Authors must be registered by Friday, 27 February 2015.

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.
