   communications/networks and applications. An accepted paper must be

   presented by one of the authors at the conference venue. These

   accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by

   IEEE Press. All manuscripts must be limited to 6 pages (however,

   we do allow up to two extra pages at a cost of US$150 per extra

   page beyond 6 pages if the paper is accepted for publication) font

   size 10 in standard IEEE camera ready format (double column). The

   Program Committee reserves the right to decline without review any

   papers that exceed these length specifications. Submissions also

   must include the title, author(s) and affiliation, e-mail address,

   should be submitted by April 15, 2005 to the ICCCN2005 website.

 

   STUDENT POSTER PAPER SESSIONS:

   The conference includes student poster sessions that highlight

   recent and ongoing research that has not been published elsewhere.

   An electronic (Postscript or PDF) version of the poster must be

   submitted to the conference website, along with a 200-word abstract.

   The first author of the poster must be a student at the time of

   submission; the student is expected to attend the conference and be

   available for discussion during the poster sessions. Accepted

   abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings. Students

   with accepted posters receive a discount from the regular conference

   registration fee.

 

   The paper session and poster sessions are two fully independent

   conference tracks, with separate review procedures. Submitted papers

   are not considered for poster sessions, and poster submissions are

   not considered for paper sessions. Submission of identical research

   material to both paper and poster sessions is not allowed.
