Since 1978 the IEEE Sarnoff Symposium has been bringing together a tremendous and rich diversity of telecom experts from industry, universities, and government. The popularity of the Sarnoff Symposium, again being held in the historic Nassau Inn located in the heart of downtown Princeton, NJ, continues to grow as the premier forum for researchers, engineers, and business executives in the North East drawing an attendance from all over the world. Besides the technical paper presentations, the Symposium will include tutorials, student paper poster presentations, executive panels, and exhibition. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a full paper for review. Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere will be considered. The submission process is carried through the EDAS conference management system (http://edas.info/). The manuscripts must follow the IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, 10-point font in the text. The maximum paper length is of five (5) pages. A sixth page may be accepted after an additional fee. Submission of a regular paper implies that at least one of the authors will have a full registration to the Conference and present the paper upon the acceptance of the submission. Manuscript template available at: www.sarnoffsymposium.org. All accepted papers (after review by experts in the field) will be presented in oral sessions, included in the 34th IEEE Sarnoff Symposium Proceedings and published through IEEEXplore. Student papers should be submitted to the Student Papers Chair (praghuwanshi@devry.edu). Prospective tutorial presenters should contact the Tutorials Chair. Detailed procedure is available at: www.sarnoffsymposium.org.
