Submission Instructions

Submitted papers must be max. 15 pages long, written in English, typeset in LaTeX2e, and formatted in the LNCS Springer style. Please download the LNCS package (zip, 68 Kb) for LaTeX2e and the instruction file (pdf, 121 Kb) directly from Springer web site or use our local mirror copies: llncs2e and typeinst. Authors are expected to use the default font and font size of the LNCS LaTeX2e style. Papers that do not respect these guidelines will be rejected.

By April 15, the deadline for submitting papers has expired. The online submission tool has now been closed. Already registered users can access their account by clicking on 'Conftool' in the left hand navigation menu.

All submitted papers will be peer reviewed on the basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Authors will be notified of whether or not their paper has been accepted by May 27, 2009.

By June 8, 2009 authors of the accepted papers are expected to provide the camera-ready copy either in Postscript or 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 workshop proceedings.

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