Submission Instructions

Submitted papers must be original work not under review at any other workshop, conference, or journal. Papers must be written in English. Only electronic submissions will be accepted (see instructions below). Papers not meeting the exact guidelines detailed below will be returned to the authors.

Format and Length
Submitted papers must be no longer than six (6) pages in double-column format with standard margins (i.e., at least one inch all around) and use a 10 point font. This length includes everything: figures, tables, references, appendices and so forth. Longer submissions will not be reviewed.

Papers should include a title, and an abstract of fewer than 200 words. Reviews will be single-blind: author names and affiliations should be included in the submission.

All papers must adhere to IEEE formatting standards. Consult the IEEE Transactions LaTeX and Microsoft Word Style Files at http://www.ieee.org/web/publications/authors/transjnl/index.html. Papers not in the correct format will not be reviewed.

Papers must be submitted in PDF (Portable Document Format) and compatible with Acrobat (English version), not including any special characters or non-standard fonts. We must be able to display and print your submission exactly as we receive it and using only standard tools and postscript printers, so we strongly suggest that you use only standard fonts. Simplified Requirements for Creating PDF Files is a three-page document that describes the essential steps in distilling PDFs. Make sure that the paper prints well on black-and-white printers, not color printers. This is especially true for plots and graphs in the paper.

Papers should be formatted for printing on US LETTER (8.5" by 11") size paper.
