Authors Best Practices and IEEE Author Tools will take place on Wednesday, 25 September from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm. This informative workshop is designed for and targeted to new authors who need to quickly and successfully publish their work. The first half of this workshop will provide a comprehensive review of author best practices and development covering author ethics along with interactive case studies, preparation of your manuscript, application for funding and grants, avoiding bibliometric and citation manipulation, and submission and the peer review process, all while offering suggestions towards the best practices to a fast and successful publication. The second half of this workshop will be presentations about new and updated IEEE author tools covering the following: IEEE DataPort™, a new IEEE product and service in support of submitting data and code in an IEEE dedicated repository (with support from the Signal Processing Society); Code Ocean, a third-party repository to store and run algorithmic code, and the IEEE Author Center, which is now the premier tool covering everything an author needs to navigate through the author journey: from tools and templates, selecting a journal, choosing the correct copyright, posting pre- and post-publication, access to editorial and production tools, and finally, to article dissemination to IEEE Xplore™. Please join us for this informative workshop designed to assist new authors in the timely and successful publishing of their work.

Bill Colacchio, SPS Senior Manager, Publications & Education Strategy and Services, will moderate the event.
