We strongly encourage authors to use Latex to prepare the final version of their paper. Processing a paper prepared using a different word processing tool is significantly more difficult and the procedure of including the paper in the proceedings is error-prone. Invited papers are allocated 15 pages.
LNCS volumes are also available on-line.
For this reason Springer request the source of your paper too along with the final printable file. The final version of your paper should reach us by May 25th . Submitted papers are expected to present original, unpublished work that is not simultaneously considered for publication elsewhere. Since the LNCS are also published in full electronic version, authors of accepted papers will be expected to submit the source files of all parts of the manuscript in addition to the camera-ready paper. The organization committee strongly recommend authors to use Latex to prepare their papers.
