Submission
Submission will be through the EasyChair conference system. Please make your submission here. The submission process requires registration to create an EasyChair account prior to submission.Submission format
The authors should submit an extended abstract not exceeding 10 single-spaced pages on A4 (or US letter) paper, including figures, title, authors, affiliations, e-mail addresses, and a short (one paragraph) abstract. References will not be counted in the page limit. Use reasonable margins and at least 11-point font. The authors are strongly advised to use the LaTeX style file supplied by Springer Verlag for Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Final proceedings papers must be camera-ready in this format.
At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the paper at the conference as a registered participant.
Papers must be submitted as a single file in PDF format.
Additional material intended for the referee but not for publication in the final version - for example details of proofs - may be placed in a clearly marked appendix that is not included in the page limit.
Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work and surveys of important results. At the time the extended abstract is submitted to CPM, and for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) should not be under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
