  2. Click the Submit button.
  3. The next page you see will have a large green check mark and a statement that the paper was registered. The last row says Initial Full Paper and has an icon of a blue cloud next to it. Click on this icon, and then you can upload the PDF of your Full Paper on the next page.

Initial Full Paper is used to refer to the PDF form of your full paper. You can also upload the paper by clicking the My Papers tab at the top of the screen, and then selecting the upload icon on the same row as the name of your paper. The upload icon (third column from the right) will open a dialog box that will enable you to select and upload the full paper file via the web or via FTP.

PLEASE NOTE: IEEE SAS does not differentiate between oral and poster presentations in terms of quality or publication, and Technical Program Chairs place papers in their respective sessions based on multiple factors including number of papers submitted overall and number of papers within each topic. The format of your presentation will be communicated when the program schedule is announced.
