address(es) and phone number(s).  A paper abstract must be registered
on EasyChair by the deadline indicated below.

Review and Publication of Manuscripts:
=====================================
Submitted papers will be reviewed by the TPC and judged on originality,
technical correctness, relevance, and quality of presentation. An
accepted paper must be presented at the conference venue by one of the
authors registered at the full registration rate. Each full
registration covers up to two papers authored by the registered author.
Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference
proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting
and Indexing (A&I) databases.  Note that each accepted paper must be
presented by one of authors. Papers of special merit will be selected
for possible fast track publication in the Computer Communications
(COMCOM) journal.

Workshops:
