Guideline for Submitting the Final Version

The final submission comprises three components, all to be submitted by April 4, 2006:

1.

Electronic Files of Final Version:

  • your source files, (e.g., .tex files for the text and .eps files for the figures, if any),
  • the pdf file of the final version of your paper.

Use your EasyChair author account and follow the instructions there to upload your files. The proceedings of AAIM 2006 will be published in Springer-Verlag series Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Please follow strictly the author instructions of Springer-Verlag when preparing the final version. See http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. We request that you use the llncs.cls style file, which you can download from http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.

Each paper should have a maximum of 12 pages. For each extra page, a fee of 50 US$ is required.

Do not try to squash your paper by removing vertical spaces or changing font sizes, etc. The paper will be reformatted and any extra page will be discarded unless the appropriate fee for extra pages is paid in time.

For figures, make sure that it prints well using only black and white.

Our publisher has recently introduced an extra control loop: once data processing is finished, they will contact all corresponding authors and ask them to check their papers. We expect this to happen shortly before the printing of the proceedings. At that time your quick interaction with Springer-Verlag will be greatly appreciated.

Please mind the mailing delays (Hong Kong is far away from North America and Europe) and post your form early enough. If you use fax, please clearly write "Attention: C.K. Poon " on the form since our whole Dept. shares the fax machine.

3.

Registration Form.

One author of each accepted paper must register for the conference by April 4, 2006 via the conference web site.
Please strictly follow the instructions there.

We expect that one of the authors of each paper will present the paper at the conference.
