Beginning with applications submitted 1 June 2017 or later, the following policies will apply to all Technically co-Sponsored Conferences:
For conference proceedings published in IEEE Xplore, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society will cover the entire publication fee (US$22 per paper). Alternately, conference organizers are free to publish conference proceedings elsewhere.
With the goal of covering RAS’s expenses to support conferences (advertising, marketing, support for conference organizers, Conference Organizer Workshops, etc.), all TECHNICALLY CO-SPONSORED CONFERENCES will be chargedan administration fee of USD$700 after the conference has concluded. If the conference is unable to pay the fee, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society will not technically co-sponsor the next edition of the conference.
