Technical Paper Guidelines

Technical paper authors MUST submit their manuscripts through the EDAS web site http://edas.info/ together with a short abstract (approximately 150 words) using the EDAS web site forms. Please note that authors must create their own accounts in the EDAS web site http://edas.info/ before submitting paper(s). Manuscripts may only be submitted in PDF format. Document templates are located at:

• Word: [DOWNLOAD]

• LaTeX: [DOWNLOAD]

Papers should be no longer than five (5) pages. A cover page should be added and it should include paper title, abstract, list of keywords indicating the paper's topic area (preferably from the list in the call for papers - see the Call for Papers page), authors' full names, affiliations and complete addresses, telephone numbers and electronic mail addresses.

Papers submitted by students may be considered for the Student Best Paper Award, which includes full conference registration and a plaque signed by the ComSoc President. To be eligible, the student must be the sole author of the paper, or the first author and primary contributor. A cover letter or email to the Technical Program Chair must identify the paper as a candidate for this competition at the time of the submission. The winner of the award will be announced during the conference.

All paper submissions will be carefully reviewed by at least three experts and reviews will be returned to the author(s) with comments to ensure the high quality of the accepted papers. The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the conference. For further information on the Technical Sessions, please contact:
