Paper formatting guidelines

Authors are requested to submit their paper electronically through the
online submission interface  not later than 10 November 2013 
Extended to: 24 November 2013 

Full technical papers may be no longer than 6 pages.  Short business application papers are primarily intended for work in progress or contributions on recent trends and issues. They should be no longer than 3 pages and should provide a succinct summary of the author’s contribution.

Accepted papers must follow the typing instructions, which can be downloaded from the conference web site.  
During your paper registration, please ensure that:
- your complete affiliation including your postal address, phone, fax and e-mail is up to date.
- you indicate the paper title including all co-authors.

 

Manuscripts must be submitted in electronic form only. The accepted electronic file format is Portable Document Format (PDF). When transmitting their paper, authors of accepted papers are considered to have read and accepted the Copyright policy (Copyright Agreement.pdf) .
It is recommended to use the WTC2014 Paper Template or the LaTex Template.zip for preparing the manuscript. 

All submissions will be assessed on the basis of quality, novelty and relevance to the conference themes. Acceptance of a paper and publication in the proceedings is conditional on at least one author registering at the full rate and presenting the paper at the conference.

Please note that we must be able to print your paper once it is submitted. Due to the large variety of systems available for formatting papers and producing PDF files, printing is not always possible for some systems. To maximize the chances that your paper will print correctly, please use only standard printer fonts (e.g., Arial 9pt) or standard TeX Computer Modern fonts. The use of standard printer fonts is strongly preferred over TeX fonts, if possible. (you can download the PDF Creator: http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator   or  the PDF Acrobat Reader http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html ).
