♣ Student Subsidy 
• All students are entitled to get a discount of up to 85% on the registration fee.
• Financial supports are available for full-time student presenters living outside of Taiwan.
♣ Special Session Submission
To encourage industry and research institutes to share their experiences on system and product development, 1 or 2-page papers on system prototyping and product development are solicited. Submission to this special session should specifically select the paper category of System Prototyping / Product Development to be reviewed separately from the regular submissions.
♣ Best Paper Award
Two best papers will be selected this year through a rigorous evaluation process, which is conducted by the program committee and session chairs.
