This deadline will be strictly enforced.

For Full and Basic registration, to qualify for the IEEE member reduced registration fee, the IEEE membership number must be included in the registration form. Similarly, in order to qualify for the student reduced registration fee, proof of current student status (e.g., current Student ID or other proof of current enrolment) must be e-mailed (as an attached scanned image or pdf file) to hpcc09@googlegroups.com. Please note that both current IEEE membership and student status will be verified.

2.    If you register for the main conference, for example, your paper is HPCC09-127, please use the conference name as "HPCC09", then fill in "127" as the paper ID on the registration form. Any incorrect use will lead to the registration failure. You can find your paper ID from the webpage (http://cse.stfx.ca/~hpcc09/hpcc09main.htm)

3.    If you register for symposia/workshops, you are not sure about the workshop/symposium names and paper IDs, please refer to the following web page (http://cse.stfx.ca/~hpcc09/hpcc09workshops.htm) for all symposia/workshop names and corresponding accepted IDs to be used in the registration database. For example, you find your paper ID at AHPCN09 symposium accepted list as AHPCN09-246, please use the conference name as "AHPCN09", then fill in "246" as the paper ID on the registration form. Any incorrect use will lead to the registration failure.

4.    When you register for main conference or symposia/workshops, please avoid using ' in your affiliation, university or title etc, since it has been pre-defined as a system symbol. It will lead the registration failure.
