registration

Registration is handled by SPIE. You can go to the registration and program page or follow this shortcut to the login page for online registration or for downloading a form to be sent by fax.

The regular registration includes printed proceedings for one conference. You have to choose a conference number in that step. MMCN 2007 has the number 6504.

One author will have to register for the conference for the paper to be included in the proceedings. Note that not only SPIE and IS&T members can claim discount rates. Since the event is held in cooperation with ACM Multimedia, ACM SIG MM members can claim them.

The registration system may not support reduced fees based on ACM membership smoothly. In case of questions, please refer to the following clause in the cooperation statement: "2) Registration and proceedings fees will be the same for ACM members as for other sponsoring organizations, and there will be no differentiation in fees between academic and corporate participant registration fees".
