The endorsed Copyright Transfer Agreement and Statement of Originality must be sent as separate attached PDF files to atee2011@upb.ro indicating your Paper ID in the e-mail Subject.

For the final camera ready manuscript, the reviewer's comments (eventually) received in the notification e-mail have to be taken into account. The English is to be carefully checked.

Please do not forget to add authors' names, affiliation, mail address, e-mail.

IEEE is very strict about the requirements for converting application files or PostScript files to full-text PDF for inclusion in IEEE Xplore®. Please follow the detailed instructions in "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore®", which describes the essential steps in distilling PDFs that meet IEEE requirements.

The most important issue is to make sure that all fonts used in the paper are EMBEDDED, especially for papers from Asia and Europe. The "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore®" details the process to ensure that all fonts used are embedded and subsetted. Failure to embed and subset fonts is the biggest obstacle to PDF compliance with IEEE Xplore®. Papers failing to meet IEEE Xplore® PDF requirements may be rejected.

IEEE PDF eXpress is a free service to ATEE 2011 Conference, allowing authors to make IEEE Xplore-compatible PDFs (Conversion function) or to check PDFs that authors have made themselves for IEEE Xplore compatibility (PDF Check function). The PDF eXpress service is located at http://www.pdf-express.org Use atee11x as the Conference ID (ID is case sensitive !!!).

Steps for submission

1. Create your manuscript(s)
2. Proofread and check layout of manuscript (it is highly recommended that you do this BEFORE going to IEEE PDF eXpress.)
3. Create IEEE PDF eXpress account
4. Upload source file(s) for Conversion; and/or PDF(s) for Checking
5. Use IEEE PDF eXpress to attain IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF(s). The site contains extensive instructions, resources, helpful hints, and access to technical support.
6. Submit final, IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF(s) [per the conference’s instructions].
