- Acceptance Notification: 1 September 2014
- Due Date for Accepted/Revised Manuscripts: 8 September 2014

- Pre-Registration: 15-24 September
- Start of Congress: 17 October 2014 (Friday)

- Manuscript Submission. We encourage Authors to submit ahead of the deadline to facilitate an early manuscript review. Templates for the 4-page manuscript (.doc, .odt, .tex) may be downloaded from Paperview: http://paperview.spp-online.org/spp2014/main . Register and submit your manuscript here: http://paperview.spp-online.org/spp2014/home/start
- Peer review. A manuscript will be considered for publication in the SPP Congress Proceedings only if it contains new creative research work and/or important information not previously published. Editors and reviewers decide as to whether a submission is sufficiently different from other published or submitted manuscripts as to warrant consideration. Each manuscript whether contributed, an invited talk, or a workshop tutorial, will receive anonymous peer review by at least 2 reviewers who are scientists or engineers knowledgeable in the field covered by the manuscript. A manuscript may be returned to an author for revision prior to sending for review if it is deemed that the manuscript is so poorly written that it would place an unnecessary burden on reviewers.
- Acceptance and Revisions. Notification of acceptance will be sent to the corresponding author on September 1, 2014 and revised manuscripts due date is on September 8, 2014. All authors (oral, poster, invited, workshop) are expected to submit a 4-page manuscript of their revised accepted papers. We want to emphasize that those authors of accepted papers who will not submit on time and those who exceed the 4-page limit run the risk to be excluded from the program.
