PDF eXpress
Make sure you added the correct copyright notice and proof-read your paper carefully so that no further changes are required. IEEE PDF eXpress can either be used to create an IEEE Xplore-compatible paper from source files or check an existing PDF document. However, any changes made to the PDF after IEEE PDF eXpress conversion or checking may invalidate the PDF. Papers not compatible with IEEE Xplore will not be included in the proceedings. To validate your paper, visit the IEEE PDF eXpress page and use either your existing account or create a new one. The conference ID is 65175X. After logging in, use ‘Create New Title’ for each of your papers and follow the instructions. Once the paper passed the validation upload the PDF eXpress-signed PDF in hotcrp.
Open access
ITC follows an open access strategy. Accepted ITC conference and workshop papers can be downloaded from the open ITC digital library. In addition, ITC makes the effort to index accepted papers in public A&I databases. By getting sponsorship of technical communities like IEEE and ACM, as well as sticking to corresponding rules with respect to technical quality, papers of previous ITC editions were included in the corresponding databases IEEE Xplore and ACM DL.
Since ITC retains the copyrights, it is possible to make the papers accessible for free via the ITC digital library. This helps to increase the visibility and accessibility of accepted papers.
