While submitting conference papers for IEEE Xplore Acceptance using <a href="https://www.pdf-express.org/">PDF-EXPRESS</a> authors experience various issues. I wish to give brief hints on how to work around using my working experiences in Latex environment.<br />
<br />
Ensure that you download the Latest Latex Template for IEEE Conferences, at the writing of this blog it was July 2018 version here <a href="https://www.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-org/ieee/web/org/conferences/Conference-LaTeX-template_7-9-18.zip">JULY 2018 updated Template in ZIP format</a><br />
<br />
1. Unzip the the Zipped File and and in your latex editor open "bare_conf.tex ". That is the file you edit to add page numbers and copyright information.<br />
<br />
NB: To ensure that your Images if you have any they will pass PDF express test . Convert them <span class="st"> Adobe Encapsulated PostScript (<em>EPS</em>) </span> format . You can do that with free online tools such as <a href="https://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-eps">EPS convertor free .</a><br />
<br />
Ensure that the image has sufficient pixels before conversion.<br />
NB: <span style="color: red;"><b>In most cases If you do not use the EPS images , the pdf generated will either fail PDF express test or pass with warnings</b></span>. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>1. Setting custom page numbers for conferences proceedings</b><br />
<br />
If you are doing the Camera ready paper where the Conference chair has approved the paper and allocated the authors page numbers say Your paper is from page 65 ---say it has 6 pages so from page 65 to 71 of the proceedings and you need to put the following in the preamble<br />
<br />
<i>\usepackage{fancyhdr} % imports the fancy package</i><br />
<i><br />\pagestyle{fancy} % for class document article, this will be set by default to %plain<br />\fancyhf{} % makes header and footer empty <br />\fancyfoot[R]{\thepage} % sets the page number as a footer on the [R] which is %the right hand footer ..</i><br />
<br />
<b>Then below the \begin{document}</b><i> statement add the following text </i><br />
<br />
<i>\pagenumbering{arabic}<br /><br />\setcounter{page}{65} % this will ensure that your page numbers start at 65 </i> <br />
<br />
<b>2. How to add the Copyright at the bottom of First page </b><br />
<br />
Conferences will provide you with various texts of Copyright based on sponsor etc for instance I will use the notice given by <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> <a href="http://www.iccece18.theiaer.org/"> 2018 International Conference on Computing, Electronics & Communications Engineering (iCCECE)</a>.. The notice read as follows </span></span><br />
<div _ngcontent-c2="" class="conference-title col-xs-10 col-sm-12 no-padd">
</div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>a. For papers in which all authors are employed by the US
government, the copyright notice is: U.S. Government work not protected
by U.S. copyright<br />
b. For papers in which all authors are employed by a Crown
government (UK, Canada, and Australia), the copyright notice is:
978-1-5386-4904-6/18/$31.00 ©2018 Crown<br />
c. For papers in which all authors are employed by the
European Union, the copyright notice is: 978-1-5386-4904-6/18/$31.00
©2018 European Union<br />
<span style="background-color: yellow;"><b>d. For all other papers the copyright notice is: 978-1-5386-4904-6/18/$31.00 ©2018 IEEE</b></span></i></span><br />
<br />
We use choice (d) so we add the following text before <b>\begin{document}</b><br />
<br />
\IEEEoverridecommandlockouts\IEEEpubid{\makebox[\columnwidth]{ 978-1-5386-4904-6/\$31.00~\copyright~2018 IEEE \hfill} \hspace{\columnsep}\makebox[\columnwidth]{ }} <br />
<br />
<br />
3. If you receive the warning that the Generated PDF has form fields from PDF express . The solution that works for me is to flatten the PDF. There are numerous free tools online . The easiest is the use of Adobe PDF itself to flatten the PDF.<br />
<br />
Here are the simple steps to Flatten a PDF using Adobe<br />
<br />
1. Open the Journal paper using Adobe PDF software <br />
2. Select File and Go to Print <br /> 3. Select Print and choose the PDF printer.<span style="margin-left: 15px;"></span> PDF printer is automatically installed when one installs PDF products. <br />
4. Select OK.<br />
5. Give the location to save the printed Journal version ----This is the flattened journal paper.<br />
6. Select Save....You can save it in the folder in your Machine <br /><br />
7. Upload the saved File in the PDF express Website ....IEEE PDF eXpress website is <a href="http://www.pdf-express.org/">http://www.pdf-express.org</a><br />
<br />
The process of Uploading to IEEE PDF eXpress unless otherwise guided is as follows .<br />
<br />
With the provided conference ID and your account provided (If a new user you must create account.)<br />
<br />
<ol start="1">
<li>For each conference paper, click “Create New Title”.</li>
<li>Enter identifying text for the paper (title is recommended but not required).</li>
<li>Click “Submit PDF for Checking” or “Submit Source Files for Conversion”.</li>
<li>Indicate platform, source file type (if applicable), click Browse
and navigate to file, and click “Upload File”. You will receive online
and email confirmation of successful upload. <b>In this case upload the Flattened PDF</b></li>
<li>You will receive an email with your Checked PDF or IEEE PDF
eXpress-converted PDF attached. If you submitted a PDF for Checking, the
email will show if your file passed</li>
</ol>
I hope this sorts your problems <br />
<br />

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
One of the major reasons why the installations fail is due to non updated repositories. we end up with responses such as</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
'E: Unable to locate package qbittorrent' </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><span style="color: red;"> The solution is here and I will demonstrate using qbittorrent installation in Kali Linux</span></b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Step 1: </b> fact one is that Kali linux base repositories are debian based.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
On the root terminal window type "<b>leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list</b>"</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
for example in my case it is :</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
root@ksnaves:~# <b>leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list</b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Step2: </b>The source list which is a text file will pop up. Copy and paste this commands below on the source list and save.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Step3: Update using the command on the terminal - </b><b>" apt-get update"</b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b>
for example in my case <b>it is root@ksnaves:~# apt-get update</b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>wait for the repository to update </b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>step 4: </b>Now install your software of choice. in my case it is <b>qbittorrent.</b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
as follows <b> Open the terminal and type the command <span style="color: lime;">apt-get install qbittorrent </span></b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: lime;"><span style="color: black;">on my case it is</span></span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: lime;"><b><span style="color: black;">root@ksnaves:~# apt-get install qbittorrent and hit on enter button</span></b></span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: lime;"><b><span style="color: black;">After few seconds you will be provided with the question Y/N on whether to install or not....Of course Hit Y on the keyboard for Yes</span></b></span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: lime;"><b><span style="color: black;">Step 5: </span></b><span style="color: black;">Now </span></span><span style="color: lime;"><span style="color: black;">qbittorrent is installed, type command <b>qbittorrent </b>on the root terminal window and press enter</span><b><span style="color: black;"> </span></b></span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: lime;"><b><span style="color: black;"> </span></b></span><b> </b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">

VISION 2030This is a paper I presented at ICT conference 2009 held at Strathmore university Nairobi . My thesis is that for Kenya to achieve the VISION 2030, a bottom up approach (Communities participation model) is the most effective, Local governments have closer links with communities and established core competencies enhanced by communities long standing trades and ways of life, though they have governance challenges. ICT can be used as an enabler to this activities.....here is the paper......<br />

<b>ICT AS AN ENGINE FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT: THE ROLE AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES IN KENYA<br />
</b><br />
<br />
<b>Abstract</b><br />
<br />
<i>Local Authorities in Kenya are well linked with communities and if well utilized they can play a great role in country's development. Use of ICT by local governments as an enabler to enhance service delivery and promote growth and development which includes preservation and promotion of traditional knowledge , marketing of local products, local investment advisory services, domestic tourism e.t.c is still not well utilized . Focus on top down approach to E- governance tends to sideline other complementary ICT initiatives. In this paper we examine a number of roles and opportunities that use of ICT provides to the local governments in Kenya in their endeavor to enhance sustainable development in their localities and the translation of this experiences to the national growth. We draw experiences from other similar initiatives by local governments in the world and propose adoption of a participatory model that can be used in Kenya.</i><br />
<i><br />
<b>Keywords</b>:<b> ICT; socio-economic development; Local Authorities; diffusion </b><br />
<br />
<b>Introduction</b><br />
<br />
After the agrarian revolution, the success of any society is based on the efficiency and effectiveness of its information dissemination processes and the knowledge management structures. Information Communication Technology (ICT) has redefined these processes and structures by changed traditional business models, flattened organizational and governance structures and inoculating new entrepreneurship avenues [1]. <br />
Local government is one of the most strategic pillars of national growth and development [13] The need to link national information communication technologies (ICTs) strategies with the local governments’ agenda is necessary to achieve socio-economic development of the communities. Partnerships among different stakeholders in the society are a key factor toward developing an information society. The effectiveness of ICT in overall communities’ development is highly dependant on the success of these partnerships in ensuring introduction, adoption, diffusion and adaptation is carried out in a healthy and supportive environment [2]. This paper explores the role and opportunities that can be exploited by local governments in Kenya. </i><br />
<br />
<b>Kenya and Vision 2030</b><br />
<br />
For a vision to transform and transcends the intended society the passion of vision must be created, engrained and integrating into every aspect peoples’ lives. In their book First Things First [3] states that<br />
“The passion created by shared vision creates synergistic empowerment. It unleashes and combines the energy, talent and capacities of all involved. ” p.g 209<br />
The Kenya vision 2030 launched on 29/10/06 provides the route path to transform Kenya to a middle income economic hub of prosperity with a sustainable growth rate of 10 percent by 2030 with goals of creating employment, wiping out absolute poverty, famine, preventable deaths and building a democratic system that respect the rule of law, rights and freedom of every individual and society [4] .The role of ICT in attaining these set goals is critical. Porter et al [5] argues that technology acquires great significance as countries move from low income level where development challenges are basic market factors like land, labor and capital to middle income level. Each Local government needs to create an enabling environment for the vision to be realized. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Technologies and Local communities</b><br />
<br />
Planning and evaluation of ICT – based development initiatives is complex [6]. A number of researchers concur that ICT adoption and implementation is not a rational matter of developing and implementing solutions but also involves social and political processes [6-8]. <br />
Bridge.org [9] an organization that promote effective usage of ICT in developing world by addressing the realities of ICT-enabled socio-economic development gives a set of best practice guidelines, the 12 Habits of Highly Effective ICT-Enabled Development Initiatives [10]. The guidelines can be summarized as follows: The ICT development initiative should;<br />
a) Research on the grey areas that gives the communities a competitive advantage to give a an assessment of available resources and goals<br />
b) Have local ownership and raise the awareness in the communities which extends to educating and engaging with an aim of a buy-in that gives a sense of ownership among beneficiaries’. The initiatives should also seek to provide solution to local problems. <br />
c) Form sound partnership and collaboration with stakeholders like civil societies, central government, organization , business communities and media to pool resources and experience to achieve the common good. This is also observed by Harindranath and Sein [11].<br />
d) Have a foundation on technology – neutral concepts to accommodate future changes.<br />
e) Involve traditionally isolated groups on basis of age, gender, race and religion.<br />
f) Be sustainable over a long term either by bringing sufficient income or improvement to the welfare of the communities<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>ICT as an Engine of sustainable Growth and development.</b><br />
<br />
The strategy for ICT in local authorities exists but focuses on e-Governance, national wide institutional partnerships and does not take into consideration local communities partnerships. [12]. Mittulah and Waema [13] in their research concept paper notes that the local authority ICT strategy in Kenya is too ambitious and has unrealistic implementation time frame. They also note the challenges human capacity, change management, funding and ICT resources in the local authorities that would affect the implementation.<br />
The need for local partnerships is necessitated by the fact that each local government has its unique opportunities that result from established traditional economic activities e.g. Thika Municipal council is traditionally known as an agricultural and industrial town popularly known as the “Birmingham of Kenya” whereas Olkejuado town council has activities like tourism and cattle rearing. This can only succeed through support of the communities and the government both local and central.<br />
In the forthcoming sections we look at the current E-governance strategy in Kenya and highlight areas for further improvement. We also draw examples of successful ICT communities’ partnership and propose a participatory model that can be used in Kenya. The examples here fall into three categories namely; E-governance, tourism, and agriculture.<br />
<br />
<b>ICT in Governance </b><br />
<br />
The Local e-Governance strategy focuses on management of services through cost cutting. The strategy provides for three products [12]: <br />
(1) Local Authorities Integrated Financial Operations Management System (LAIFOMS) which has three components namely revenue, expenditure and budget preparation – monitoring . <br />
(2) Local Authorities geographical information system (LAGIS) that aims to map and geo-reference properties in local authorities with a view to determine the potential for collection of rates from property owners. <br />
(3)Local Authorities human resource management systems (LAHRMS).<br />
There are many dimensions of governance that the current strategy does not consider. Sturges [14] gives the main elements of a public governance and transparency as open government and public scrutiny, freedom of information laws, Financial accountability and social auditing and community awareness <br />
The success of E-governance in Ireland is attributed to promotion of freedom, communities centered approach and wiping out “unfreedom” like bureaucracies e.t.c [15] . Ireland was able to create a community awareness program on the e-government services which focused on enrooting entrepreneurship and provision of fundamental services like customer inquiries and business support services. <br />
In India the central government has liaised with states and municipal to offer online community services and providing local language support facilities e.g. The Dandeli city municipal council where users can get documents in local language – kannada . The website also gives an over view of the major economic activities of the city like industries (http://www.dandelicity.gov.in/index.html) <br />
<br />
<b>ICT in Tourism</b> <br />
<br />
ICT is vital in providing marketing infrastructure for both domestic and foreign tourism. Local Government needs to collaborate with communities and partners like the ministry of tourism and tourism board of Kenya to promote their goods and services. Domestic tourism can be promoted through cultural exchanges; communities’ social activities e.t.c. Domestic tourism offers great opportunities for wealth creation in the communities.<br />
New Zealand focuses on small and medium-sized tourism enterprises (SMTE). It uses synergistic approach that accommodate both central and local government tourism strategies with the knowledge that Local authorities are often best placed to identify the policy mechanisms that can best support the creation of wealth at the local communities level and their contribution can be assimilated in the national development policy [16]. Rodney District Council is one of the areas where SMTE have been successfully implemented through community participation.<br />
<br />
<b>ICT in Agriculture.</b><br />
<br />
Agriculture is the major economic activity in Kenya. One of the major problems experienced by farmers is timely access to information since high percentages of farmers are in rural areas. Communities’ partnership can be used to establish agricultural community centers’ where farmer can access market information, products varieties. Soirano noted that agricultural Community telecentres had a positive impact on rural poverty reduction in China Wu’an village[17].<br />
<br />
<b>The Participatory Model for ICT Adaption, Implementation and Diffusion in Kenya</b><br />
<br />
In this section we propose a model adopted from for ICT adaption, Implementation and diffusion in Kenya to enhance socio- economic development in the local communities. The model below denoted <b>Fig 1</b> is proposed since it easily assimilates the already existing Local Authorities Services Development Action plan (LASDAP) [12] approach that advocate for direct involvement communities’ and public private partnerships in charting their development agenda.<br />

<b>Conclusions</b><br />
<br />
ICT plays an important role in ensuring and the effectiveness of local authorities in promotion wealth creation, societal empowerment and the realization of vision 2030. Public private partnerships at local levels play an important role in ensuring the vision stays alive. There is need for the local government to redefine its ICT strategy to cater for these partnerships. Mohamed Yunus [19] stressed the need for IT in all strata of life economic prosperity is to be achieve …. <br />
<blockquote>There is an on-going view that IT is totally irrelevant for the poor who are generally illiterate; IT is too expensive for them to reach out to; the poor don’t need fancy IT, they need food. These are the voices of the sceptics. Now in three years there are more than 5000 Telephone Ladies in Bangladesh villages doing roaring business selling telephone service.” (Mohammed Yunus 2001)</blockquote><br />
