ACE2008: guidelines for authors

Papers must be between 4 and 10 pages long. Papers are required to conform to the formatting guidelines of the series Conferences in Research and Practice in Information Technology. See the "Procedures and Resources for Authors". The preferred format for submissions is PDF. Word and Latex style files are available at the CRPIT web site.

Papers must be of A4 page size (21 x 29.7 cm or 8.27 x 11.69 inches). Note that even if your source document is A4, your PDF writer is possibly set to ‘print’ to US Letter paper by default. Once you have produced the PDF document, please check its page size (eg in document properties) before submitting it.

Authors are urged to browse the proceedings of past ACEs (see link at left), both to help ensure that their paper is indeed original, and to find papers that might be worth citing in their own paper.
