Security '07 Call for Papers
HOW AND WHERE TO SUBMIT REFEREED PAPERS
Papers are due by February 3, 2007, 11:59 p.m. PST (deadline extended!). All submissions will
be made online via this Web form. Details of the submissions process will be made
available here well
in advance of the deadline. Submissions should be finished, complete
papers.
Paper submissions should be about 10 to a maximum of 20 typeset pages,
formatted in 1 column, using 11 point Times Roman type on 12 point
leading, in a text block of 6.5" by 9". Once accepted, papers must be
reformatted to fit in 8 to 16 pages in a 2-column format, using 10
point Times Roman type on 12 point leading, in a text block of 6.5" by
9". 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. The page limits are intended to include the bibliography and any
appendices. Reviewers may not take into consideration any portion of a
submission that is over the stated limit.
Paper submissions must not be anonymized.
Submissions must be in PDF format (i.e., processed by Adobe's Acrobat
Distiller or equivalent). Note that LaTeX users can use the "dvipdf"
command to convert a DVI file into PDF format. Please make sure your
submission can be opened using Adobe Acrobat 4.0. For more details on
the submission process, authors are encouraged to 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, sec07chair@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 accord with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
Authors will be notified of acceptance by April 4, 2007. The
camera-ready final paper due date is May 14, 2007. 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 sec07chair@usenix.org.
