Information on Final Manuscript Upload

  1. Registration is required to upload the final manuscript. Notice that online registration is made through an external system (http://www.cvent.com/d/mcq22c), not EDAS.
  2. After registration, you will receive an 11-digit registration code that will be used to upload your final manuscript. According to the ComSoc policy, full registration (categories RG01, RG02, or RG03) is required to upload final manuscripts and each full registration can cover up to 3 papers.
  3. Log into EDAS and go to your accepted paper where you should see an upload icon beside "Final manuscript". Click on the upload button. In the next screen, enter the conference registration code and complete the rest steps.


PLEASE NOTE: The author list of an accepted paper can NOT be changed in the final manuscript.
 

Registration Information for Authors of Technical Papers

In order to upload your paper you must first register for the conference. You will need your Registration Code (Confirmation) when you upload your paper.
Therefore authors must register by Saturday, September 1st, as this is the deadline for uploading your paper.

Note that student authors can apply for a Student Travel Grant through EDAS.

PLEASE NOTE: To be published in the IEEE SmartGridComm Conference Proceedings and IEEE Xplore®, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented at the conference. 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 SmartGridComm Conference Proceedings and in IEEE Xplore®.

IEEE and IEEE Communications Society Policies

All IEEE SmartGridComm technical papers must be associated with an author registration in the R01, R02 or R03 category. For authors presenting multiple papers, one registration in any of the categories (R01, R02 or R03) is valid for up to three papers. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference for all reasons including the VISA problems.
