UPDATE ON PLAGIARISM CHECKING REQUIREMENTS FOR PUBLISHED CONFERENCE PAPERS 

In alignment with a prior IEEE Board of Directors motion, and in accordance with IEEE’s publishing policies, a new process was approved by the IEEE Technical Activities Board during its June 2017 meeting. Plagiarism screening is already a requirement per IEEE policy and this recently-approved process will help ensure the quality of IEEE conference proceedings content submitted for publication in IEEE Xplore. The process provides guidance on roles, preferred tools and timing.
