The conference proceedings will be distributed on Flash Drives without ISSN at the APTA conference. It is our principle that conference proceedings will include three-page abstracts in order to avoid potential plagiarism issues since authors may publish similar papers in other journals. However, it is still possible for authors to indicate on the submission website that they prefer to have their Full Papers included in the conference proceedings. In these cases, full papers will be included. (However, please be aware of the potential for plagiarism issues).
