Information for Authors

Authors of accepted papers are required to prepare the final manuscripts (in English language) in the WFCS double-column format, using PDF with embedded fonts (i.e., "Press" settings in the Acrobat Distiller). Only manuscripts in PDF (*.pdf) format will be accepted.

In order to facilitate the proceedings compilation and printing process, we kindly ask you to fully adhere to the A4 WFCS 2006 style guides. Final manuscripts should not exceed a length of 6 pages for short papers, 10 pages for long papers, and 4 pages for work-in-progress papers.

Moreover, all submitted manuscripts must comply with the IEEE Xplore PDF specification, so you have to use the PDF eXpress tool to create/check the final version of your manuscript.
