Plug‐fest: The plug‐fest is an opportunity to test and demonstrate device and system interoperability.
Implementers are invited to cooperate with others and address compatibility issues
in order to demonstrate system‐wide clock synchronization and operation of protocols
across a wide spectrum of devices. Prospective participants in the plug‐fest should submit a
letter of intent to participate, and an abstract of one page or less describing the devices, applications
and the technical issues illustrated. Submission details are available at:
http://www.ispcs.org.
Exhibitions: Promotional partner companies are invited to exhibit their products/prototypes.
Exhibition space will be provided during the conference, allowing discussions with partners
during the breaks. For details on becoming a promotional partner see: http://www.ispcs.org.
Submission of Papers: Authors should submit a six‐page original manuscript. Templates and
online submission of papers will be available at: http://www.ispcs.org. Students are welcome
to submit papers.
Work in Progress Papers: Work in Progress (WIP) papers will be reviewed and presented in a
poster session.
Student Paper Award: Details on submitting papers for best student paper award will be
available at http://www.ispcs.org.
Paper Acceptance: All papers will be peer‐reviewed. Each accepted paper must be presented
at the conference by one of the authors. The final manuscript must be accompanied by the
registration form and proof of payment. All conference and plug‐fest attendees, including
authors and session chairpersons, must pay the conference registration fee and their own
travel expenses.
Final Papers: Final papers are limited to six pages or less in IEEE double column format. Full
papers are accepted in IEEE compliant PDF format. All full papers will be published in the conference
proceedings in CD and on IEEE Xplore.
