Poster Abstract Submission Guidelines

The poster session provides a forum for researchers to showcase promising work still in earlier stages of development. Areas of interest are the same as those listed for regular papers. Posters will be evaluated based on their technical merit and innovation as well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchanges of ideas. Submissions from both the industry and universities are encouraged. The accepted two-page poster abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings and IEEE Xplore Digital Library.

Poster submissions must be formatted according to the style also used for main conference paper submissions, with the exception that they should not exceed 2 pages. Please email poster abstract submissions as PDF attachments to: hpsr2013posters@gmail.com, with the Subject line reading "HPSR 2013 POSTER SUBMISSION."
