Authors are invited to submit original papers which are neither previously
published nor submitted in parallel for publication to any other conference,
workshop or journal. All submitted papers must be anonymous, with no author
names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or obvious references. Submissions
should be in English, in PDF or PS format with all fonts embedded, typeset
using 11pt font, and having reasonable spacing and margins. Papers should not
exceed 12 A4-sized pages, excluding a bibliography and well-marked appendices.
Note that papers should be intelligible without all appendices, since
committee members are not required to read them. Submitted papers may risk
being rejected directly without consideration of their merits if they do not
follow all the above submission instructions.
The proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in their Lecture Notes in
Computer Science series, and will be available at the conference. At least one
author of each accepted paper should register and give presentation at the
conference.
