Paper submission guidelines
Authors are requested to submit their paper electronically through the online submission interface not later than June 15, 2007.
Claims must be backed by evidence in the paper and authors should be prepared to publicly discuss them at the workshop. Assumptions about the model should be stated and justified clearly.
Submitted papers must contain unpublished material. Manuscripts must be submitted in electronic form only. The accepted electronic file format is Portable Document Format (PDF). When transmitting their paper, authors of accepted papers are considered to have read. At least one full registration is required per paper.
Paper formatting guidelines
Important note: Submissions written in English must be made electronically, preferably as a PDF file of no more than 15 pages.
Please submit your manuscripts written in English to the official website given below in this column. Templates can be found at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. It is recommended that the manuscript must be compliant with the following paper formatting rules:
- The page format must be A4 (21.0 cm × 29.7 cm);
- Use Arial font, and all text must be at least 9pt, except paper title 14 pt.
- The paper must contain contact information of at least one of the authors
- Figures, tables and equations must have separate sequential numbering
- Captions must be centred, and placed above tables and underneath figures
- Do not number pages, and do not use footnotes
- MS Word users: Embed all tables, charts, figures and images within the text
- Submit your paper as unprotected pdf file only
We must be able to print your paper once it is submitted. Due to the large variety of systems available for formatting papers and producing PDF files, printing is not always possible for some systems. To maximize the chances that your paper will print correctly, please use only standard printer fonts (e.g., Arial 9pt) or standard TeX Computer Modern fonts. The use of standard printer fonts is strongly preferred over TeX fonts, if possible. (you can download the PDF Creator: http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator or the PDF Acrobat Reader http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html).
The paper must be able to print clearly on standard black-and-white printers. Reviewers will not view your paper in colour, and the final version of all accepted papers will be published in black-and-white in the conference Proceedings.
