Overview
A designated "presenter" of the technical publication must be identified and the designated “presenter” must pay the appropriate registration fee by the established deadline of August 8, 2008, 9:00am CDT. If the presenter has not registered by the August 8, 2008 deadline:

• The paper will NOT BE PUBLISHED in the proceedings.
• The presentation information will be removed from the conference website and on-site printed program.

Handling Exceptions
Exceptions to the registration requirement for presenters will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Requests for an exception to this requirement must be sent to the Technical Program Chair: Prof. John T. Roth, Penn State Erie, The Behrend College, Erie, PA, USA, jtr11@psu.edu by July 14, 2008. Only requests submitted via e-mail will be considered; please do not provide requests by other methods. The Technical Chair is the only authority to grant exceptions to the registration requirement. Submission of an exception request does not guarantee approval. Authors will be notified by July 28, 2008 regarding the status of their request.

Important Publication Notes

• The deadline for notification of papers to be removed from publication will be firm: no extensions will be allowed.
• Once papers have been designated for removal from the proceedings, we will not "put them back."
• We will not offer to publish removed papers at a later date or in the proceedings of another conference.
• Papers not published in the digital version of the conference proceedings produced for onsite distribution will not be published post-conference on the Digital Store or in the print editions.
• Copyright forms received for papers removed from publication due to lack of fulfillment of this requirement will be returned to the corresponding author(s) post-conference.
