In the past, we have faced issues where authors have put their USB in their

you at all times and not put it with your unaccompanied luggage and that you also
do not just email the presentation to yourself. You should save your presentation

You are required to send us your revised full paper (after compliance to the PER
and ERR and editorial observations, comments, if any, you received at the
conference) within 2 months after we send you the ERR.
If your invitation and acceptance letter does not mention any journal name, it

notice will be sent. If you do not send your revised paper by the deadline or if
