Unclassified Technical Program
The unclassified technical program provides a venue for papers and presentations that do not include ITAR-sensitive, classified or proprietary information.
Restricted-Access Technical Program
The restricted-access technical program provides avenue for papers that contain ITAR-controlled or FOUO information. To attend and participate in the restricted access program, one must be a U.S. citizen. In addition, papers originated outside of U.S. will not be accepted in this program.
TUTORIALS AND PANELS
MILCOM 2015 also solicits proposals for unclassified half-day tutorials and one and half-to two- hour panels. Relevant topics include state-of-the-art communications and networking technologies, cyber, and innovative techniques applied to communication systems and acquisition strategies for joint imperative.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Specific submission and proposal information, including information about travel grants for students, is available at www.milcom.org.
