Author's Kit

Please follow the steps below for manuscript submission.

Submitting the manuscripts

• Manuscript submission is handled by the EasyChair system
• Please prepare your paper using the 2-column format. In order to ensure the proper formatting of submitted papers, you must follow the instructions found in the help documents below.
• IEEE Guidelines (alternate location) - detailed instructions on paper formatting.
• IEEE Format Definition Table - short list of the important formatting definitions.
• Word Template - Easy-to-use Word Template file.
• IEEE PDF Settings - contains settings for many PDF distiller softwares to distill your document.
• IEEE PDF Specifications - Important instructions for distilling your paper into PDF.
• Latex formatting for Windows - Latex formatting files. Once completed, please be sure to generate a PDF of your paper.
• Latex formatting for Linux - Latex formatting files. Once completed, please be sure to generate a PDF of your paper.
• IEEE Formatting Bounding Box (DOC) - You can use the Bounding Box Reference to measure your papers dimensions, in order to ensure proper formatting.
• IEEE Formatting Bounding Box (PDF) - You can use the Bounding Box Reference to measure your papers dimensions, in order to ensure proper formatting.
• Typeface: To achieve the best viewing experience for the review process and conference proceedings, we strongly encourage authors to use Times-Roman fonts. If a font face is used that is not recognized by the submission system, your proposal will not be reproduced correctly.
• Graphics: Graphics should be inserted, rather than cutting and pasting. Do not link to a graphic. The manuscript's graphics should have resolutions of 600dpi for monochrome, 300 dpi for grayscale, and 300 dpi for color. We suggest that you use a text box to insert a graphic (which is ideally a 300 dpi TIFF or EPS file, with all fonts embedded) because, in an Word document, this method is somewhat more stable than directly inserting a picture. To have non-visible rules on your frame, use the MS Word "Format" pull-down menu, select Text Box > Colors and Lines to choose No Fill and No Line.
• References: List and number all references at the end of the document. The references can be numbered in alphabetical order or in order of appearance in the paper. When referring to them in the text, type the corresponding reference number in square brackets as shown at the end of this sentence [1]. The end of the document should include a list of references containing information similar to the following example:
  [1] D. E. Ingalls, "Image Processing for Experts," IEEE Trans. ASSP, vol. ASSP-36, pp. 1932-1948, 1988.
• For invited papers, please add the line "(Invited Paper)" after the title of your paper.
• Abstract: Each paper should contain an abstract of 100 to 150 words that appears at the beginning of the document. Use the same text that is submitted electronically along with the author contact information.
• Your paper must be submitted in PDF format.
• Failure to meet the formatting guidelines set by IEEE, could result in your paper not being included in the Proceedings CD.
