CCSCNE 2012 Presenters Page

Congratulations on having your paper/proposal/abstract (for a panel or tutorial) accepted for presentation at CCSCNE 2012.

If you have any problems with this process please contact editor@ccscne.org

1. Web-Based Paper Submission:

Submit each of the following items using the CCSCNE Final Copy Submission Page so as to reach the CCSCNE Editor by January 31, 2012

Your paper/proposal/abstract as one formatted file, which includes any embedded figures. Please use a 12pt font and follow the instructions contained in the General Guidelines for Manuscript Preparation and the Manuscript Formatting documents. Any questions regarding formatting instructions should be directed to John Meinke at meinkej@faculty.ed.umuc.edu.

Your proposal must be submitted as both a Word document and a PDF file. Note that TeX and LaTeX are not accepted. Name your file with the first 5 characters of your last name, plus the file extension (e.g. johns.doc, johns.pdf)
For each figure in the paper/proposal/abstract, include a separate file containing the original figure. The figures may be in any popular format (such as TIFF, BMP, PIC, GIF). If you do not include a file for each figure the figure may not appear in the proceedings! Name your files as fig1.pic, fig2.bmp, fig3.gif, etc.
A PDF form of your paper/proposal/abstract. If this is not possible then submit a plain ASCII text form of your paper/proposal/abstract (minus any figures, of course). This file will be used to re-create your paper/proposal/abstract if the above files cannot be used. Name your file with the first 5 characters of your last name, plus the pdf extension (e.g. johns.pdf).

Papers/Abstracts will not be included in the proceedings until registration fee is received.

In order to maintain minimal registration fees for the conference, there are no complimentary registrations for speakers, moderators, panelists or members of the Steering Committee. It is therefore essential that speakers', moderators', and panelists' registrations be received prior to assembly of the Proceedings, which will be available at the conference.

In addition, please note that:

Papers: At least one author of the paper must register when submitting the camera-ready copy.
Panels/Tutorials: All the presenters must register when submitting the camera-ready copy.
Faculty Posters: At least one author of the poster must register by February 9, 2012.
Student Posters: Student registration fee is a fraction of the general registration fee.

4. Audio-Visual Requirements:

Each conference room will have wireless access.
Each room will have a projector, but no computer. Presenters must supply their own laptop.
There are no computer labs available for workshops. Participants must bring their own laptops.
If anyone has special AV needs, please contact the co-chair for your submission type (paper, panel, demo, workshop, or tutorial). We will try our best to accommodate all reasonable requests.
