Submission of Paper and or Demos
This year we are soliciting demos.
2-4 pages technical description of each demo will be published in the IEEE HAVE Proceedings and digital library.
| | ABSTRACT PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION GUIDE HAVE uses the EDAS conference management service hosted by Columbia University to collect and manage abstracts and papers. Each lead author must visit the EDAS web site and establish an account with a username and password. The lead author then logs in to the EDAS system to actually submit the abstract, and later, the paper.
Steps: - Visit www.edas.info. if you do not have an account, please lick the "New User" button. Otherwise log in with your existing account information
- Create a profile. Only the five fields with the red asterisk are required. These fields are first & last name, affiliation (company or organization), country, e-mail address, and status. When the fields are filled in, check the "Privacy Policies" box and click the "Add Person" button. [note: if you select USA as the country, you will get a message asking for your state ]
- You will receive an e-mail containing your password. You can then return to the EDAS log-in page (http://www.edas.info) and change your assigned password to one that is easier to remember. To do this, click on the "My Profile" tab, and then click on "change your password". Be sure to record your user name, password and ID number for later reference.
- To submit your abstract, click the "Submit Paper" tab. Find HAVE 2008 among the list of active conferences and click the button in the right-most column to access the form. or go directly to: http://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=6587&
- On the next screen titled "Register a Paper for HAVE 2008", type in the title of the paper in the block and click the "Submit" button without pasting in any text (due to the size of the abstracts, they must be submitted as a PDF file). The next page you see will have a large green check mark and a statement that "the paper was registered". The last row says 'Manuscript', and has an icon of a yellow folder next to it. Click on this icon, and then you can upload your manuscript on the next page. "Manuscript" is used to refer to the PDF form of your extended abstract. You can also upload the paper by clicking the "My Papers" tab at the top of the screen, and then select the Upload icon on the same row as the name of your paper. The Upload icon (third column from the right) will open a dialog box that will enable you to select and upload the abstract file via the web or via FTP.
- After your abstract has been accepted and its time to upload your paper, log in again and click the "My Papers" tab. The Upload icon (third column from the right) will open a dialog box that will enable you to select and upload your paper via the web or via FTP.
IMPORTANT! Submission of abstracts implies the author's willingness to register for the conference and present the paper(s). An accepted paper will be published in the proceedings only if the final version is accompanied by the registration form(s) and fee(s) for at least one of the authors (only full member or non-member fees will be allowed for this purpose) - no exceptions!
