Virtual Presenter
We understand that some presenters will be unable to make the trip to Japan to present their paper, mainly due to financial and/or political restrictions on travel. ACSEE 2013 has therefore instituted a virtual presentation system to allow the authors of accepted proposals the same publication opportunities as regular presenters.

You can submit a proposal for virtual presentation under the open call for papers through the online system by clicking on the ONLINE SUBMISSIONS SYSTEM button below. You will be asked to create your own personal account before you will be able to upload your proposal.

We do not allow presentations by video-conferencing but virtual presenters are encouraged to upload a video of their presentation onto the ACSEE 2013 Youtube conference channel. Information on how to do this will be given to you following registration.
Following the conference you will be mailed a conference pack including a printed copy of the ACSEE 2013 programme, and a receipt/certificate of virtual participation.
