AoE to EST
Anywhere on Earth (AoE, UTC−12) is 7 hours behind US Eastern Time (EST/EDT) in standard time, and 8 hours behind while New York, Boston, Toronto and Montreal observe daylight saving time.
When is a “23:59 AoE” deadline in US Eastern?
23:59 AoE = 06:59 next day (UTC−5)
23:59 AoE = 07:59 next day (UTC−4)
So a paper due “15 May, 23:59 AoE” can still be submitted until 06:59 next day in US Eastern, adjusted for daylight saving as above.

Questions
Is AoE ahead of or behind US Eastern?
Behind. AoE is the last timezone on Earth, so it’s always earlier there than in New York, Boston, Toronto and Montreal. When a date ends in AoE, it has already ended everywhere else.
Does AoE change with daylight saving time?
No. AoE is fixed at UTC−12 all year. US Eastern Time (EST/EDT) does change, so the gap is 7 hours in standard time and 8 hours during daylight saving.
Why do conferences use AoE?
It’s the latest timezone, so no author anywhere loses part of the final day. If it’s still the deadline date somewhere on Earth, you’re on time. More about AoE.
