SUMMARY OF INDISPENSABLE REQUIREMENTS (back to top)
- The files:
- We must receive your signed consent form(s) at the time you submit your files. All authors may sign a single form, or each author may send in a separate signed form, as convenient. Please mail or fax your signed consent form to the address on the form.
DEADLINE (back to top)
The files are due on or before 14 June 2006.
FILE FORMATS (back to top)
Email the PDF and HTML of your paper to jel@usenix.org.
Both versions will be permanently mounted on the USENIX Web site. Please send:
- One version, including any figures, as a PDF file with all fonts embedded.
- A second version, in fully formatted HTML, with any illustrations in
PNG, GIF, or JPEG format. A compressed file (e.g., uuencoded tar, gzip, zip) is recommended for transmission. Please be sure to include your .css file.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES (back to top)
The authors, not the USENIX staff, are solely responsible for the content and formatting of their paper. It is not possible for USENIX to proofread or correct the papers. USENIX staff will be happy to advise about any aspect of paper presentation: send email to the Production Director, Jane-Ellen Long, before the paper submission deadline.
Content
Note that some licensed material may not be publishable.
USENIX does not have the resources to research licensed material
and will rely on your determination. If there is any question on this
matter, please contact your program chairs immediately.
Attribution information (authors' affiliations and email addresses) should be included on the first page of the paper. Dedicated title pages should not be used. Keep the attribution short—no biographies or other extended information.
A 200–300 word abstract should follow the title and author names, before the main body of the paper.
Take care when making general references to people that the pronouns "she" and "he" are used fairly. If this is not done, the usage becomes offensive and distracting. It is also contrary to expected behavior,
particularly in a professional forum.
Proofread your paper carefully yourself, run a spell-checker, and also have
someone else proofread it.
