The deadline for all submissions is January 16, 2015. Registration of the paper also registers you as a delegate for the Full workshop. A single paper registration fee can be applied to up to three papers on which you are a co-author. To include additional papers simply enter their abstract numbers in the provided fields during the paper registration process. If you will not be presenting your paper, there is a field to indicate who the presenting author is.
