For final
manuscript submission
=======================
For authors whose paper has been
accepted by ICSS2008, please download ICSS 2008
template (MS Word) to prepare your
final manuscript. If the format of your manuscript is not consistent with
the template styles, you will be requested for further revisions, which
would make you miss the deadline (Feb.22nd, 2008) and your paper would
possibly be cancelled from the conference proceeding.
Some
guidelines for preparing your final manuscript:
1) Please use the template (MS word) and follow the styles in it.
2) For the title of your paper,
let it indicate the methods adopted in your paper as far as possible. In
order for your paper to be indexed by EI, please avoid using such words like
“algorithm”, “theory”, etc, in the title;
3) For the abstract of your paper, it should have at least the following
parts:
a) Purpose
b) Design/methodology/approach
c) Findings/results
d) Originality/value
Attention:
a) It is unnecessary for you to introduce the background of
your research works in the abstract;
b) “ICSS 2008” or other words that indicate the conference
should not appear in the title and abstract.
4) Please ensure that all the
figures and tables are in high resolutions as far as possible and they
should be editable, for final camera-ready production by our journal
editors.
5) Before final publication, our
editors will do some minor revisions on the title and abstract of your
paper, to make them more suitable to our journal. If you do not agree with
the revisions, please let us know by sending email to
rainy@hit.edu.cn.
6) Once you've finished the
manuscript, please send to us via email to
ICSS2008@gmail.com
before Feb. 22nd, 2008.
