For conferences publishing in this new model, all ICPS papers will be published Open Access (OA). Many authors will qualify for free OA publishing, while others will be required to pay an applicable article processing charge (APC).

If you are the corresponding author of a paper in a conference that is to be published in ICPS, please follow these steps to determine whether you will be required to pay an APC.
