Final Author Instructions

Important Information

The Conference Proceedings will be included in the IEEE Interactive Electronic Library (IEL) as part of IEEE Xplore. All authors who have been accepted must register for the conference and attend the conference to present their paper. Authors who do not attend the conference to present their papers, or arrange for a co-author or knowledgeable colleague to present their paper in the absence of the primary author, will not have their paper published in the IEEE IEL and IEEE Xplore, per IEEE policy.

IEEE reserves the right to exclude a submission from distribution after the conference, including exclusion from IEEE Xplore, if the submission does not meet IEEE standards for scope and/or quality. Articles excluded from further distribution shall be archived by IEEE but shall not be indexed or appear on IEEE Xplore.

1. Register Online Here

Please read carefully the following information concerning the registration procedure that is presented in the Author Instructions, especially if you are the prospective presenter of an accepted paper or if you need to guarantee the inclusion of your accepted paper in the proceedings. An accepted paper will be published in the proceedings only if the registration payment for one of the authors is received by July 4, 2021, no exceptions. In addition, the author must attend the conference and present the paper. Papers that are not presented will not be published. No exceptions.

To qualify for member rates, the membership number must be provided in the registration form.

One author registration will cover the publication expenses of only TWO accepted papers. For each additional accepted paper associated with the same registration, you must pay the associated surcharge. In the case no registration has been received and correctly processed to cover the paper publication, the conference organizers will contact the authors before the paper is removed from the proceedings.

You will be required to enter your registration confirmation code in EDAS prior to uploading your paper.

If you need to register by bank transfer, please contact Coral Miller, BHI-BSN 2021 Registration Manager.

NO PAPER WILL BE PUBLISHED WITHOUT THE AUTHOR’S COMPLETED REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT.
