Submission Instructions

Submitted papers must be between 8 and 12 pages long, written in English, typeset in LaTeX, and formatted in the LNCS Springer style. Please download the LNCS package (zip, 219 Kb) for LaTeX and the instruction file (pdf, 160 Kb) directly from Springer web site. Authors are expected to use the default font and font size of the LNCS LaTeX style. Papers that do not respect these guidelines will be rejected.

By March 2, authors are expected to submit their manuscript in PDF format.

All submitted papers will be peer reviewed on the basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity. If a submission is not accepted as a full length paper, it may still be accepted either as a short paper or as an extended abstract. In such cases the authors will be asked to reduce the length of the submitted paper accordingly. The authors of all accepted papers will be asked to improve their papers on the basis of reviewers' comments.

Authors will be notified of whether or not their paper has been accepted by April 30, 2014.

By May 21, authors of the accepted papers are expected to provide the camera-ready copy in PDF format, and all source files—i.e. LaTex file(s), figures and references—needed for obtaining the final version of their paper. Papers that do not comply with all requirements might fail to be included in the conference proceedings.

By submitting a camera-ready paper, the author(s) agree that at least one author will attend and present the paper at the conference.
