Submission (before December 4th, 2010)
We invite submission as “full-length paper” (up to 12 pages) or as “extended abstract” (up to 5 pages) in PDF format not exceeding 10MB. Authors should use available templates (MS Word and Latex) or match the output format produced by these templates.
To enable blind reviews, all information identifying the authors should be removed before generating the pdf. All submissions will be handled via the Elsevier EES system following a two-stage peer review cycle.
The best full-length papers will be published as journal papers by Elsevier Computers & Graphics, special issue 34(3). The remaining full-length papers and the extended abstracts will be published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS) in the “Proceedings of SMI’10”.
