Submission

Manuscript Preparation Instructions for Authors
 
Paper upload deadline: 15 August 2013
 
All papers must be written in English with a maximum paper length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures, in two-column format. Please note that you may not reduce the length of paper submitted for review after it is accepted.
 
IEEE Transactions templates for Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats can be found HERE. Alternatively you can follow the sample instructions in this template.
 
Note that this format requires:
- Authors' affiliation centered under authors' name and title, not in a footnote
- No authors bios nor pictures
- No index terms nor keywords
- In LaTex, the use of the \documentclass[conference]{IEEEtran} command
 
Your submitted PDF file and the information in EDAS about your paper must match: the author(s) must be listed in the same order and the title must match; there may be only minor wording differences in the abstract. Papers where the PDF and EDAS information do not match will be withdrawn by the Technical Program Chair or Track Co-Chairs.
 
For final manuscripts of accepted papers, please note that the following requirements need to be adhered to:

  1. no page numbers and no headers/footers

  2. non-zero PDF top and bottom margins (typically, at least 0.5 inches)

  3. IEEE Xplore compliant: fonts should be embedded, no bookmarks and no links

Final manuscripts should be uploaded using EDAS; for help, see http://edas.info/doc/final.html
