Author's Kit General Instructions

Things to do:

1. Read the Paper Preparation first, regarding the format of your paper. You should use the Sample Paper and Templates to help you prepare your manuscript. You should also see instructions for Abstract Preparation.
2. Prepare a camera-ready paper, at most 4 pages long, including figures and references, and find an appropriate subcategory from the Paper Categories for your paper.
3. Do Electronic Submission of the Paper Cover Sheet. Here you will get your paper number and a password which you need to write down. If you are unable to complete the electronic submission of your paper cover sheet, you'll need to prepare a floppy disk containing the cover sheet information and abstract, fill out the Paper Cover Sheet manually and skip Step 4.
4. Do Electronic Submission of the postscript file of your full paper. You can only do this if you successfully completed step 3.
5. Fill out one copy of the Copyright Form.
