| Preparation of Abstracts: Abstracts must be submitted electronically. Deadline for submission of abstracts is Friday, June 27 at 5:00 pm Pacific Standard Time. PRIOR to preparing your abstract for electronic submission, please read the abstract preparation and submission guidelines below. At the bottom of this page are links to templates, samples of good IEDM abstracts and a "How To Write For IEDM" link. Because our requirements differ from those of other conferences, we have prepared these guides to help you better understand what the IEDM is seeking. Abstracts for review must clearly state:
Instructions for Electronic Submission Only electronic submissions will be accepted. Do not email files or mail hard copies to the conference office. In order for your paper to receive a full review, the following information MUST be entered on the website along with your submission:
Abstracts for review must include:
50 Word Abstract for the IEDM Web Page This abstract is a brief synopsis (50 words) of your paper. Accepted 50-word abstracts will be used in preparing the IEDM web pages. The abstract should be prepared and inserted into the appropriate text box marked Summary for the 50-word abstract on the submission web site. DO NOT INCLUDE THE 50-WORD ABSTRACT AS A SEPARATE PAGE WITH YOUR SUBMISSION. Helpful Links
IEDM 19803 Laurel Valley Place Montgomery Village, MD 20886 USA Tel: 301/527-0900 ext. 103 Authors of accepted papers will be notified by August 14, 2008. They will receive an author's kit, which will include instructions on the preparation of an extended abstract of no more than 4 pages (including figures) for the Technical Digest and CD-ROM of the 2008 IEDM. This abstract must be submitted to the printer by September 22, 2008. Publication in the digest in no way precludes later publication of a fuller account of the work in another journal. The paper must be presented at the conference by one of the listed authors. STUDENT PRESENTATION OF PAPERS ENCOURAGED BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARD:Papers presented by students and based on their own work will be considered for the Best Student Paper Award IF THE ABSTRACT IS IDENTIFIED AS A STUDENT PAPER AT THE TIME OF SUBMISSION. The best student paper award is decided based on the abstract, final paper and presentation. The award presentation will be made at the 2009 IEDM. Award Consideration requirement: In order for a paper to be considered for the best student paper award, the student's professor and/or research supervisor will be asked to complete the IEDM student paper recommendation form clearly outlining the student's individual contribution to the work. This form is to be filled out by those student papers that are accepted for the IEDM and can be mailed or faxed to the conference office by the final extended abstract deadline of September 22, 2008. STUDENT SPEAKER TRAVEL ASSISTANCE: Limited financial assistance for travel and registration is available to students presenting papers. This year, IEDM has increased the amount that it will be reimbursing students requesting travel assistance. This applies also for overseas students. ASSISTANCE MUST BE REQUESTED WHEN THE ABSTRACT IS SUBMITTED by choosing this option on the submission website (under "Type"). Further information on travel assistance will be included in the student's author kit. Late News Papers are not eligible for travel assistance or the student paper award. Pre-Conference Publicity The accepted one-page abstracts and supporting information will be used for IEDM publicity purposes and portions of these abstracts may be quoted in pre-conference magazine articles and also via the Web. IF THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, AUTHORS MUST INDICATE THIS ON THE WEB SITE WHEN SUBMITTING THE ABSTRACTS FOR REVIEW. Questions regarding pre-conference publicity should be addressed to the conference public relations manager, Chris Burke at (email: cburke@btbmarketing.com and tel. 1-919-872-8172). Agreement not to Pre-Publish Abstracts Submission of an abstract for review and subsequent acceptance is considered by the committee as an agreement that the work will not be placed in the public domain by the author prior to the conference. Accepted papers or significant portions of the work may not be placed in the public domain prior to the conference. Violation will be grounds for automatic withdrawal of the paper by the conference committee. All questions or inquiries for further information regarding this meeting should be directed to the Conference Office at: 19803 Laurel Valley Place, Montgomery Village, MD 20886 USA.
