Papers that have not followed these basic instructions will be
returned to author(s) for corrections and possible re-submission
within two weeks of receipt. All submissions will undergo a
double blind review by the Review and Selection Committee, who
will review each paper for content, clarity, and organization.
Papers may be accepted, accepted with revisions, or rejected.
Papers requiring revisions will be returned to the author(s) to
either make revisions or address the reason the revision was not
made in a cover letter within two weeks of receipt. The
proceedings editors will edit every paper, returning them to
authors to address the suggested revisions. The edited papers
will then be returned to the editors for inclusion in the
proceedings. The Proceedings Editor(s) may make necessary
formatting and editing changes and contact author(s) for final
approval of the paper for publication.
