DEADLINES AND REQUIREMENTS |
For this scientific conference, it is
possible to send in full papers and extended abstracts that will
be published in the proceedings. In addition, you can submit
short papers or poster presentations, product or vendor
presentations, and proposals for panel discussions. The
refereeing process for the scientific presentations will be based
on full papers and extended abstracts only. Full papers and
extended abstracts are due to arrive BEFORE OCTOBER 5, 1997 at:
European Simulation Office The Society for Computer Simulation International University of Ghent, Coupure Links 653, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium Tel. (Office) : +32.9.2337790; Fax: +32.9.2234941 Tel.+Fax (Private): +32.59.800.804 E-mail: info@scs-europe.org |
in printed form (four copies) or preferably via E-mail (uuencoded or binhexed, zipped, if possible in PostScript, or -if not possible- in Word, WordPerfect, or LaTeX format). Only original papers, written in English, which have not previously been published elsewhere will be accepted.
The length of the full paper should be about 10-14 typed pages, resulting in 6-8 two-column 10 point paper for the published paper in the proceedings.
The length of an extended abstract should be such, that the paper can be worked out into a 6 page two-column 10 point paper for the published paper in the proceedings.
During review, the submitted FULL PAPERS or EXTENDED ABSTRACTS can be accepted by the programme committee, as either an extended (8 pages) paper if excellent, or as a regular (6 pages) paper. Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the International Program Committee.
It is also possible to submit a SHORT PAPER (1-2 page submission) to the conference. Short papers should also be structured as a scientific paper and will be refereed by at least one member of the Program Committee, but the rules are applied less strict. Short papers are an ideal outlet for current research or industrial applications. Short papers do not appear in the main volume of the conference proceedings. Presentation time is shorter than that of full papers.
In short:
Submissions, written in English, must clearly indicate the name, affiliation, address, phone number and email address of the primary authors. They must clearly state what is new and point out significant results. In case of multi-authors, one author should be identified as the corresponding author for the paper.
Only original papers which have not previously been published elsewhere will be accepted.
If you are not sure whether your paper will fit into the conference, you can send in an abstract of your paper to the European Simulation Office, or directly to the appropriate conference chair of the subconference. The Office will make sure your paper gets to the chairman of the appropriate conference. You will receive an answer whether it is advisable to send in a submission within one week. In case of sending in an abstract, please state your e-mail and fax number to speed up communication.
Please send in the other types of submissions (product presentation, discussion session, workshop, user group meeting, and panel) to the European Simulation Office.
The notification of acceptance or
rejection, in combination with suggestions to improve the paper,
will be sent by NOVEMBER 15, 1997. Along with the
notification of acceptance, an author kit with complete
instructions for preparing a camera-ready copy for the
Proceedings will be sent to authors of accepted abstracts or
drafts . The camera-ready copy of the papers (can be submitted by
e-mail in electronic form: a uuencoded or binhexed, zipped
PostScript file) must be in by DECEMBER 5, 1997. In order
to guarantee a high-quality conference, the camera ready papers
will be checked as well, to check see the suggestions of the
program committee have been incorporated.
Authors are expected to register early (at
a reduced fee) and to attend the conference at their own expense
to present the accepted papers. Without early registration and
payment, the paper will not be published in the Conference
Proceedings.
