FULL PAPER

The length of full papers is limited to ten (10) pages. Up to two (2) extra pages are acceptable for full papers, but will be charged at USD$100 per page. It is very important that the author uses the LNCS template (MS Word, LaTex) and follows exactly the format specified in the instructions.

SHORT PAPER

For example,

the authors' names should be written out in full whenever possible
