Multiple Submissions:

Papers presented at MT Summit XVI must represent new work that has not
been previously published. It is the responsibility of the author(s)
to inform the program chairs of any potential problem with respect to
this requirement. Authors submitting a similar paper both to MT Summit
XVI and another conference or workshop must inform the program chairs
by email (research@mtsummit2017.org), specifying to which other
conference or workshop they are submitting their work. If the paper is
accepted and presented at MT Summit XVI, then it must be withdrawn
from other conferences and workshops.
