Security '06 Call for Papers
PAPER SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Papers are due by February 1, 2006, 11:59 p.m. PST. All papers must be submitted via this Web form. Submissions should be finished, complete papers. Paper submissions should be about 10 to a maximum of 20 typeset pages, formatted in a single column, using 11 point Times Roman type on 12 point leading, in a text block of 6.5" by 9" (default LaTeX 11 point single-column article format is acceptable). If you wish, please make use of this LaTex style file and sample tex file (see the corresponding PDF here) when preparing your paper for submission. Reviewers may not take into consideration any portion of a submission that is over the stated limit. Once accepted, papers must be reformatted to be about 8 to a maximum of 16 typeset pages, formatted in 2 columns, using 10 point Times Roman type on 12 point leading, in a text block of 6.5" by 9".
Paper submissions must not be anonymized.
Submissions must be in PDF format. Please make sure your submission can be opened using Adobe Acrobat 4.0. For more details on the submission process, consult the detailed author guidelines.
To insure that we can read your PDF file, authors are urged to follow the NSF "Fastlane" guidelines for document preparation and to pay special attention to unusual fonts. For more details, see:
All submissions will be judged on originality, relevance, correctness, and clarity. In addition to citing relevant published work, authors should relate their submission to any other relevant submissions of theirs in other venues that are under review at the same time as their submission to the Symposium. Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, and plagiarism constitute dishonesty or fraud. USENIX, like other scientific and technical conferences and journals, prohibits these practices and may, on the recommendation of a program chair, take action against authors who have committed them. In some cases, program committees may share information about submitted papers with other conference chairs and journal editors to ensure the integrity of papers under consideration. If a violation of these principles is found, sanctions may include, but are not limited to, barring the authors from submitting to or participating in USENIX conferences for a set period, contacting the authors' institutions, and publicizing the details of the case.
Authors uncertain whether their submission meets USENIX's guidelines should contact the program chair, sec06chair@usenix.org, or the USENIX office, submissionspolicy@usenix.org.
Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms will not be considered. All submissions are treated as confidential, both as a matter of policy and in accordance with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
Authors will be notified of acceptance by April 3, 2006. The final paper due date is May 11, 2006. Each accepted submission may be assigned a member of the program committee to act as its shepherd through the preparation of the final paper. The assigned member will act as a conduit for feedback from the committee to the authors.
Specific questions about submissions may be sent via email to the program chair at sec06chair@usenix.org.
