Author Guidelines

The proceedings will be published as a volume in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. The instructions below are a summary of the formatting requirements documented in Springer-Verlag's "Authors' Instructions".

Authors should register on the paper submission Web site as soon as possible. When papers are complete and properly formatted, authors will submit (upload) them electronically. For more information, see the instructions for submitting materials.

MS WORD
Springer-Verlag provides a ZIP archive containing
PC and Macintosh templates, documentation for using these templates (sv-lncs.doc), and an example document (typeinst.doc) that uses Springer-Verlag's "Authors' Instructions" as input.

The documentation for using the template is also
available in PDF format.

 




LATEX2E
For authors using LaTeX2e, the Springer-Verlag class file is llncs.cls. The LaTeX2e macro package for LNCS contains further files:

  • llncs.dem, a sample input file, may be taken as a source for the input
  • llncs.doc, a TEX file, documents the class and explains how the macro package works
  • llncs.dvi, the resulting DVI file of llncs.doc, enables the documentation to be printed out directly
