that will be available by the date of the conference, but in the post-conference
volume of the Proceedings and in the post-conference edition of the
CD version of the Proceedings.
- There is a limit of 6 pages for each
paper in the Proceedings. At most 2 additional pages can be included,
as long as the registered author pays the fee of US$ 75 per extra

Secure Credit Card Online
Payment
|
| |
| This
site uses industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption
technology to protect your credit card information.
Although the system used for credit card information transmission is
quite secure, some users prefer to fax or send via e-mail their credit card information to
us separately. You will be offered a choice of this payment option
during the registration process. Since we cannot securely receive your signature
or other authentication information, through e-mail, we cannot
accept registrations via e-mail.
