        B. Final version preparation using the IEEE PDF eXpress

Final versions of accepted papers must be prepared using IEEE PDF eXpress requirements:
• Go to the IEEE PDF eXpress website
• If you never used IEEE PDF eXpress, then click on the link Create an account and fill in your information.
• If you have used IEEE PDF eXpress before, then enter your email address and password.
• The Conference ID is: 67693X
• Continue to enter information as prompted.
An Online confirmation will be displayed, and an email confirmation will be sent verifying your account setup.
Previous users of PDF eXpress need to follow the above steps, but should enter the same password that was used for previous conferences. Verify that your contact information is valid.
Only in case the check for compliance with PDF eXpress is successful, you will be able to submit your final paper.

        C. Submission of the Final Paper and the IEEE electronic Copyright Form

For the final submission, log into the FTNConference submission system and access your already existing paper ID. Upload the IEEE PDF eXpress-generated file (with the file name generated by the IEEE PDF eXpress). Please do not submit a new paper with a new paper ID, but just update the previously submitted paper with the final version using the Update file link.
After uploading the final paper in the form of the IEEE PDF eXpress-generated file, the submission system will lead you to the IEEE electronic Copyright Form site (eCF). You will need to fill out the electronic IEEE Copyright Form, according to the instructions at the site, and sign it electronically.
Please do not skip this step, since only the papers with signed eCF can be published in the IEEE Xplore Proceedings.
For accepted papers to be included in the conference proceedings and submitted for possible inclusion in the IEEE Xplore® Digital Library, the following requirements must be satisfied by the corresponding deadline:
       • Submission of the final version of the paper
       • Transfer copyright of the paper to IEEE
       • At least one of the authors must pay full registration for the conference
       • The paper must be presented at the conference

        D. Registration

For all the accepted papers, it is required to register for the conference as part of the paper submission procedure. You will have to select the registration fee and additional services, and the method of payment. If you choose to pay by card, then it will be done online after you submit all the necessary data. If you choose to pay using an invoice (bank transfer), then the Invoice with instructions will be sent to you during the day.

By doing that, you´ll finalize the final paper submission process.
