-Authors of accepted papers are required to attend their session regardless of which day the session is scheduled; if an author can not make it to the scheduled time, the conference reserves the right to pull the paper.
-For papers in which ALL co-authors are doctoral students, the submission fee was waived. Make sure you select the student category to avoid paying the fee.
