    Final Paper

    Please submit the files belonging to your camera-ready paper using your EasyChair author account.

The page limit is strict. Please follow strictly the author instructions of Springer-Verlag when preparing the final version: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
    Our publisher has recently introduced an extra control loop: once data processing is finished, they will contact all corresponding authors and ask them to check their papers. We expect this to happen shortly before the printing of the proceedings. At that time your quick interaction with Springer-Verlag will be greatly appreciated.

    Please upload a signed and completed copyright form to us as soon as possible. The Springer copyright forms can be found at HERE. It is sufficient for one of the authors to sign the copyright form. You can scan the form into PDF or any other standard image format. We greatly appreciate your cooperation in these matters. Thank you again for your contribution to SmartCom 2020.

    Volume Editor: Dr. Meikang Qiu, Texas A&M University Commerce, USA.

    Registration Payment

    Information about PayPal Payment for International Registrants

    As an eBay Company, PayPal provides the most popular online payment system. PayPal may charge extra transaction fee. There is no need to have a PayPal account to transfer the registration fee. You can just send the registration fee to myconf_pay@yahoo.com via PayPal, and you can finish the transfer easily. Here are the details about the fees for PayPal accounts.
    It's free within the U.S. to send money to family and friends when you use only your PayPal balance or bank account, or a combination of their PayPal balance and bank account. There is a fee when you send a payment in another country outside the U.S. Please note that exchange rate fees also apply if there is a currency conversion. The rate for the transaction is 5%.
    For example, an early bird registeration of a regular paper author via Paypal and he should pay a wire transfer with the amount of $939.75, because 895 * 1.05 = 939.75. Please be noted that all the transaction fees are collected by PayPal rather than us.

    Information about Direct Deposit for US Registrants

    For the registrants who are in USA with a USA checking account, we recommend you the direct deposit payment option. This payment option does not need a transaction fee.
    The register who selects this payment option needs go to a local Bank of America branch and deposit cash/check to our conference account.

    Information about Wire Payment for International Registrants

    Wire transfer is the most direct and easiest way to pay the registration fee. We recommend you pay the registration fee via this method. Difference bank may charge various transfer fee. Please check the wire transfer fee of your own bank account, and add the extra transfer fee into your original registration fee. Furthermore, please be noted that an extra $15.00 will be charged to the receiver side, thus please add $15.00 to your wire transfer to guarantee we will receive the exact value of your registration fee.
