Accepted Posters

Please Note: At least one author per accepted paper (Main conference, Poster, Workshops, Demo) must register at the full rate, i.e., at Regular IEEE/ACM member rate, or at non-member rate​ even if he/she happens to be a student. In the case of an accepted paper with exclusively student authors (i.e., all authors are full-time students and no other co-authors), registration at the student rate is permissible.

Camera ready papers are due by Dec 15, 2021 (HARD DEADLINE). Please adhere to the instructions given on the website (https://www.comsnets.org/camera_ready.html) in preparing the camera ready manuscript.

Poster Format

Please prepare your posters in A0 paper size in portrait/landscape mode. You will need to bring a printed copy of your poster to the poster session. We will arrange for the necessary support system (poster stands, clips etc.). Please ensure to make your poster visually appealing. For instance, merely replicating the text of your abstract onto the poster is a bad idea. Instead, strive to have a continuous flow of ideas through numbers, figures, diagrams and graphs.
