Submission of extended abstracts

Following the tradition of the last several years a set of extended abstracts of the workshop presentations will be prepared and made available on the Web for: Therefore, submissions of extended (about two pages) abstracts, which may also contain references and links to the author's Web page and/or to publications available on the Web is encouraged.

Unfortunately, we have very limited resources that can be assigned for preparing the set of abstracts. We, therefore, request every author to provide us with an abstract by completing the abstract form and e-mailing it to us. The abstract form is an ASCII file which has fields for information needed for processing the abstract. Forms with abstracts will be converted by a Perl script into LaTeX files (the Perl script is available for authors, who would like to generate and test the LaTeX document corresponding to the submitted abstract form). Such an approach has been used for other conferences and it has proved to be easy to use and results in uniformly processed abstracts.

The easiest way for you to get the abstract form depends on the configuration of your browser. Hence we have prepared three options for you:

The abstract form contains detailed comments (in fact comments take about 90% of the file) that should make it easy to use with any text editor also by authors not familiar with LaTeX.

Please use only ASCII characters when preparing your abstract, and e-mail us a clean ASCII abstract form file (that can be exported from most PC editors) with your abstract. E-mails with abstracts are processed automatically on a Unix computer, therefore please send your abstract form as a separate (containing no other information) e-mail (please send it as a body of your e-mail, not as an attachment).

Thank you very much in advance for your help in preparing the abstracts and please do not hesitate to contact us, if you have any questions or doubts.
