Paper Submission and Presentation

Each submission should contain original, high quality work which has not been previously published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. Papers should be submitted electronically, through the BIBE 2014 submission system, in PDF format. All submissions should conform to the IEEE conference proceedings specifications (single-spaced, double-column, 10-point font size, up to 8 pages). For detailed instructions about IEEE proceeding specifications, please refer to the IEEE website.

Each accepted paper should be presented at the conference by one of the authors and accompanied by at least one full registration fee payment, to guarantee publication in the proceedings. All accepted papers will be included in the Proceedings of BIBE 2014, which will be published by the IEEE
