Submitting a Paper

You are hereby invited to submit papers up to 6-8 pages, 8.5" x 11", two-column format. We particularly encourage position papers on preliminary work that shows promise, rather than mature and well-polished papers. Surprising results and thought-provoking ideas will be strongly favored. All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee. Authors of accepted papers will be given the option of including their paper in the proceedings of the conference, published through IEEE-CS.

PLEASE NOTE:

The IEEE will only accept IEEE XploreTM-compliant PDF files for final paper submissions. Please distill your PDF file to meet IEEE PDF specifications.

At a minimum, basic PDF distiller settings MUST be changed so PDF files are: optimized, set to Acrobat 4.0 compatibility, all graphics are set to at least 300 dpi resolution, ALL fonts are embeddable, POSTSCRIPT fonts, ALL fonts must be embedded and subset, postscript settings SHOULD NOT override distiller settings and page size is 612.0 x 792.0 points (8.5" x 11"). Authors should check their final PDF files before submission to verify that all fonts have been properly embedded and subset. Some font manufacturers now flag their fonts to not embed. These fonts should be avoided.

An Adobe Acrobat Distiller JobOptions file set up to meet these minimum IEEE PDF specifications is available upon request. You may also adjust this JobOptions file to produce higher resolution graphics if so desired.

The complete IEEE PDF specification document can be found at:
