Paper submission
Two different types of paper submissions are invited:
- long papers, up to sixteen pages, reporting on research or experience;
- short papers, up to six pages, describing work in progress or tool demonstrations.
Paper submission deadline has expired (January 5, 2011). There is still the possibility to provide further contributions to IS-EUD 2011 by participating to one of the four Workshops held in conjunction. Information can be found at the worshops page.
Paper title, abstract and keywords, as well as addressed conference topics, are required to aid in reviewer assignments.
Authors may submit and update them through the EasyChair system until paper submission deadline.
Papers must be formatted in Springer
LNCS format and must be submitted electronically. All
submissions will be reviewed by members of the international Program Committee.
Accepted papers (both long and short) will appear in the proceedings of IS-EUD 2011, published by Springer
as Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS). Short papers will be presented at the conference as poster or
live demo in a specific session.
Papers must be submitted on-line through the EasyChair system.
Instructions for preparing camera-ready papers
The page limit for papers is strict: up to 16 pages for long papers, up to 6 pages for short papers and up to 4 pages for Doctoral Consortium papers.
Please, follow carefully the Springer author instructions when preparing the final version.
Strict deadline for the camera ready version is Monday March 14th, 2011.
Files and information about the camera-ready paper have to be submitted using the proceedings author role in the EasyChair author account. Following the instructions after the login for uploading them, authors are required to upload:
- a zip file (with the extension .zip) containing either the LaTeX source (preferred) required to produce the paper, including all non-standard or local packages, or a Microsoft Word file in the RTF format;
- a PDF version of the camera-ready paper;
- a completed and signed copyright form as a scanned PDF (required). Digital signatures are also acceptable.
Please, notice that EasyChair system requires that, when authors upload the above files, they have to specify the name of the main LaTeX or RTF file contained in the zip file and the program to process the main file (word, latex or pdflatex). After this authors are allowed to upload the final paper by clicking on the “Submit” button.
Important note:
Springer has recently introduced an extra control loop.
Once data processing is finished, they will send the final PDF files to
contact authors, asking them to check their paper. This should
happen about in the second half of April/beginning of May. At that time
a quick interaction with Springer will be greatly appreciated.
Contact authors should ensure to have
access to their email. The email will come from an email address from India
and will have the PDF file attached, so contact authors should make sure that
emails with attachments are not automatically filtered out. The purpose
of this extra control loop is to ensure that no errors have crept in
during the publication process. Springer will not accept any
updates (minor or major) to the papers themselves at this stage, nor
will they correct any mistakes made by the authors themselves. Authors' cooperation in these matters is greatly appreciated.
Inclusion of papers in the Proceedings is conditional upon registration of at least one author per paper by March 26th, 2011. See information for registration at the IS-EUD 2011 registration page.
