The conference proceedings will be published in a CDROM/USB by IEEE at the conference with an ISBN number and will be published by IEEE Digital library (IEEE Explore) after the conference, which is typically indexed by Engineering Index (EI Compandex), ISTP (ISI Proceedings), and DBLP.

In submitting a paper, the authors warrant that should the paper be accepted, the final camera-ready version will be prepared in time for inclusion into the published proceedings and that at least one of the authors will attend the conference and present the paper. The proceedings will be published by IEEE Explore after the conference, and the committee reserves the right to withdraw any paper from the proceedings that is not presented at the conference.
