Requirements for WOWCS '08 Authors

[Back to WOWCS '08 Call for Papers]

This document provides supplementary information for authors writing submissions to WOWCS '08 beyond that provided in the Call for Papers. Please read and follow both the instructions in the Call for Papers and these requirements carefully.

How Should I Prepare and Deliver My Manuscript?

Submission of all papers must be made electronically in PDF format.

Authors should make sure that their submission prints properly on US-style 8.5 x 11 inch paper. Submitted papers will be checked by the PC against these requirements:

  • No longer than 5 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references.
  • Use 10 point type on 12 point (single-spaced) leading, for the body of the paper.
  • All text and figures must fit a text block 6.5" wide x 9" deep.
  • Papers not meeting these criteria will be rejected without review, and no deadline extensions will be granted for reformatting.
  • Pages should be numbered, and figures and tables should be legible in black and white, without requiring magnification.

Do not send files meant for word-processing packages (Word, WordPerfect, LaTeX, Framemaker, etc.).

If you are using Microsoft Word, Troff, LaTeX, or Framemaker, please make use of these templates and sample first pages (two-column format), if possible:

MS Word 6.0
Troff
LaTeX and style file
Framemaker

If you have any other questions, feel free to send mail to the Program Chair at wowcs-chair@usenix.org.

Good Luck!
The Program Committee
