Typing Instructions

Last modified 2006-05-19 22:31

Please consider these Instructions as guidelines for preparation of Final Camera-Ready Papers. The Camera-Ready Papers would be acceptable as long as it is formatted reasonably close to the format being suggested here. Note that these instructions are reasonably comparable to the standard IEEE typesetting format.

  • Instructions For Authors
      Instructions for submission of Camera-Ready papers are included in the notification of acceptance (which is currently being emailed to all authors of accepted papers). All finished manuscripts should be converted to PDF before submission (use of Adobe Acrobat is strongly recommended).
  • Formatting Instructions
      Both, two-column and one-column formats are acceptable. If using two-column format then the column width should be approximately 3 inches and the gap between the two columns should be about 0.375 inches. Other reasonable and similar formats are also acceptable.
      - Abstract: Prepare the abstract (100 to 150 words) using Italic font with point size 10. The abstract is an essential part of the paper. Use short, direct, and complete sentences. It should be as brief and concise as possible.
      - Keywords: Maximum of six keywords.
      - Length: The maximum allowed number of pages is seven for Regular Research Papers (RRP) and Regular Research Reports (RRR), four for Short Research Papers (SRP), and two for Posters (PST).
      - Title: Type the title approximately 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) below the first line of the page and use 20 points type-font size. Center the title (horizontally) on the page. Leave approximately 1 centimeter (0.4- inches) between the title and the name and address of yourself (and of your co-authors, if any.) Type name(s) and address(es) in 11 points and center them (horizontally) on the page.
      - Section Headings and Subsection Headings: Number section and subsection headings consecutively in numbers and type them in bold. Use point size 14 for section headings and 12 for subsection headings. Avoid using too many capital letters. In the case of one-column format, section headings should be centered and subsection headings flushed left and in two-column format, both section headings and subsection headings should be flushed left.
      - Main Text: USE AT LEAST 2.0-2.5 CENTIMETERS (0.8-1.0 INCH) FOR THE LEFT AND RIGHT MARGINS. Use Roman and font size 10 (or 11) for text (character size). Do not use bold in the main text. If you want to emphasize specific parts of the main text, use italics. LEAVE A MARGIN OF AT 2.0-2.5 CENTIMETERS (0.8-1.0 INCH) AT THE PAGE HEAD (TOP OF EACH PAGE) FOR PLACING THE FINAL PAGE NUMBERS AND HEADER (FINAL PAGE NUMBERS AND RUNNING HEADS WILL BE INSERTED BY THE PUBLISHER). Select a standard size paper such as A4 (210 X 297 mm) or letter (8.5 X 11 in) when preparing your manuscript. Typing area should not exceed 9.2 x 6.5 inches (23.4 x 16.5 centimeters). The text should be prepared with single line spacing.
      - Figures: All illustrations, drawings, and photographic images will be printed in black and white. We recommend that you examine a printed copy of your paper (in black and white) and make the final adjustments before submission. All illustrations must be numbered consecutively (i.e., not section-wise). Center the figure captions beneath the figure. Do not assemble figures at the back of your article, but place them as close as possible to where they are mentioned in the main text. Figures can span the two columns if need be (for those who use two-column format).
      - Tables: All tables must be numbered consecutively. Table headings should be placed above the table. Tables should be as close as possible to where they are mentioned in the main text. Tables can span the two columns if need be (for those who use two-column format).
      - References: Number in square brackets (see section 3.0 of the PDF document above) should cite references to the literature in the main text. List the cited references in numerical order at the very end of your paper (under the heading `References'). Start each referenced paper on a new line (by its number in square brackets).
      - Page Numbering: DO NOT NUMBER ANY PAGES IN YOUR PAPER AND DO NOT REFERENCE PAGE NUMBERS IN THE TEXT.
      - Fine Tuning: Do not end a page with a section or subsection heading. Keep footnotes to a minimum.
      Proper usage of the English language is expected of all submissions (i.e., Camera-Ready papers).
  • Finalization
      After proofreading and correcting the final draft (finished manuscript), convert it to PDF (use of Adobe Acrobat PDF converter is strongly recommended). Examine all pages of the final PDF version before submission. BE SURE NOT TO INCLUDE A COVER PAGE, AND DO NOT PASSWORD PROTECT THE FINAL PDF FILE (NO SECURITY ENCRYPTION).

    If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best. Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser, but the design needs a standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it. Just so you know ;)
