PDF Compliance

Please prepare your manuscript for final camera ready submission following the same PDF format guidelines as for the initial submission. Standard submissions will be 6 pages, and additional pages will incur a supplement charge of £50 per page. All papers must be IEEEXplore compliant and must follow the formatting instructions provided at: http://control2016.qub.ac.uk/PaperSubmission/.

To ensure that your file is fully compliant with IEEEXplore, you need to verify your paper with IEEE PDF eXpress http://www.pdf-express.org/plus/ using the conference ID: 38184XP. More details on pdf conversion using PDF eXpress can be found below.

PDF eXpress will generate a log file with errors, if any. Your final paper cannot be submitted to the conference until all errors have been corrected. Once your compliant log is error free, you will receive an IEEEXplore compliant pdf file from PDF eXpress with a name similar to PIDxxxxxxx.pdf. You must upload this file (see next step) as your final submission.
