Paper Guidelines

[Print-friendly version]

Submitted papers must be in English, should be typed in two-column, single-spaced format, and must adhere to the word limits in the Call for Papers. They must include the author's name, affiliation and e-mail address, a 200 word abstract, and keywords identifying the paper's area. The keywords listed in the Call for Papers are preferred:

• Digital Libraries
• Document Databases
• Document Workflow
• Document Management
• Hypermedia
• Information Retrieval
• Multimedia Resource Discovery
• Document Standards (XML, SGML etc)

Sample LaTeX and BibTeX style files for ADCS 2005 are available as follows:

The LaTeX source file sample.tex which you should use as a basis for your paper.
The LaTeX style file sample.sty which is used by sample.tex
The sample BibTeX style file sample.bst
A sample BibTeX bibliography sample.bib

If at all possible, LaTeX should be used for paper preparation. If you do not have access to LaTeX, then you may use MS-Word, but please ensure that it conforms to the guidelines, and the appearance is as close as possible to sample.pdf.

Submissions of full-length papers should be approximately 3000 words, or eight pages in the required style. Submissions for Posters, Short papers, Industry Status Reports, and Demonstrations should be appoximately 1500 words long, or four pages in the required style.

Submissions must be made by email softcopy, and must be a PDF file for reviewing. MS-Word files and LaTeX source files will not be considered. Send submissions as an attachment to ah.spink@qut.edu.au.

All submissions must be original work, not previously published elsewhere, and not currently submitted to any other conference or journal.

Submissions that differ markedly in length or style from these guidelines risk being rejected without further consideration.
