You need to do two things to complete the final submission of your Blocks & Beyond demo/poster summary document:
If you encounter any issues with making these deadlines, please email fturbak@wellesley.edu ASAP.
Here are the steps to follow:
This step can be done at any point in the process, but you might want to do it before submitting the summary document so that co-authors have time to consult about it. It should be completed by Wednesday, November 06, 2019. Follow the instructions on the Blocks and Beyond 2019 Copyright page to start the proces of submitting your IEEE copyright form.
Revise your submission to address all of the comments of all the reviewers and any additional comments from the organizers.
All submissions must be created using the 8.5" x 11" (US Letter), Two-Column Format template (LaTeX or MS Word) provided at the IEEE templates site.
If you use the LaTeX template, use the following \documentclass declaration; do not use the compsoc option.
\documentclass[conference]{IEEEtran}
The main text of the summary document is limited to 2 pages. This 2-page limit does not include acknowledgments (optional) or references, which follow the main text of the paper.
If you added page numbers to your original submission, please remove them from your camera-ready version.
Note on copyright footer: The IEEE paper submission FAQ says "A copyright footer must be applied to the paper prior to uploading manuscript to PDF eXpress." However, you do not need to add such a footer in your workshop paper. We will add this footer (with the appropriate ISBN number) when we assemble the papers into a proceedings.
All camera-ready submissions must be PDF documents that have been validated using IEEE's PDF eXpress Plus tool. You can choose either to let PDF eXpress Plus create your final PDF from source or you can validate a PDF you have created yourself. Only papers that pass validation by PDF eXpress Plus are accepted by the IEEE Xplore digital library.

You will also need to specify a password for this particular conference ID.
Click "Submit" when done and go to Step 4b.
Soon, you should receive an email from the system reporting the status of the validation/conversion.
This step must be completed by the end of day on Wednesday, November 06, 2019.
For the B&B 2019 workshop, you will use PDF eXpress Plus (not EasyChair) to upload the final version of your submission.
