Submission Instructions:
- To submit a full paper, a paper title and abstract has to be submitted by March 20, 2010 23:59 PST.
- The paper must be original material that has not been previously published in another conference or journal, nor is currently under review by another conference or journal. Note that you may submit material presented previously at a workshop without copyrighted proceedings.
- Your submission is limited to twenty two (22) 8.5"x11" double spaced single column pages, using 11pt or larger font. The paper must have one inch margins on both sides, top and bottom. The page limit includes everything: references, title, figures, appendices, abstract, etc. Submissions not adhering to these submission guidelines may be rejected by the program chair without further review. Your paper must print satisfactorily on both 8.5"x11" paper and A4 paper.
- Papers are to be submitted for double-blind review. Blind reviewing of papers will be done by the program committee, assisted by outside referees. Author names as well as hints of identity are to be removed from the submitted paper. In addition, do not omit references to provide anonymity, as this leaves the reviewer unable to grasp the context. Instead, if you are extending your own work, you need to reference and discuss the past work in third person, as if you were extending someone else's research.
- Your submission must be formatted for black-and-white printers and not color printers. This is especially true for plots and graphs in the paper.
- Please make sure that the labels on your graphs are readable without the aid of a magnifying glass. Typically the default font sizes on the graph axes in a program like Microsoft Excel are too small.
- Please number the pages.
- The paper should be submitted in PDF. We will not accept any other format. We should be able to print the document just as we receive it. We suggest that you use only the four widely-used printer fonts: Times, Helvetica, Courier and Symbol.
-
Please make sure that the output has been formatted for printing on LETTER size paper.
