ITAR
While submitting your paper to the RFIC
conference, you should be aware of ITAR restrictions on publishable
material, whether you work in the defense industry, in academia,
or for a commercial enterprise.
All authors submitting material to the IEEE
are expected to exercise due diligence and obtain all needed
clearances for their works to be freely published in IEEE
publications. Clearances should be obtained well in advance
of the submission deadline. Authors who make changes to their
manuscripts should also have the changes cleared in advance
of the deadline. This applies to all authors. Additionally,
ITAR restrictions apply to authors who:
- are U.S. nationals (including green card holders);
- work for a U.S.-based organization, regardless of where
they are physically located; or,
- work at a U.S. location of a non-U.S.-based organization.
Authors in these categories must ensure that ITAR compliance
is satisfied for all papers submitted to the IEEE for publication.
Furthermore, the IEEE assumes that all authors involved in
government contracts will meet their contractual obligations
and that these obligations will, by definition, satisfy the
requirements for ITAR compliance (see for instance a
sample of IEEE ITAR form. This is consistent with the
longstanding IEEE policy that all authors shall obtain the
necessary approvals before publishing. Don't automatically
assume that ITAR does not apply to you. As an example, ITAR
covers certain types of A-to-D converters! Further information
can be found in the IEEE website (www.ieee.org,
search for ITAR). Specific questions can be emailed out to
itar@ieee.org."
