Instructions for Authors of Accepted Papers
Please revise your paper carefully according to the comments of the reviewers. Papers MUST BE formatted according to the guidelines of Springer Intelligent Systems and Computing Series. Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the proceedings. Please do not make any changes in the margins, font size and line spacing. EDAS will automatically withdraw the manuscripts which do not meet Springer guidelines.
Please read the authors' instructions carefully before preparing your papers. Each paper is allowed to have 12 pages in the final camera-ready copy. At least one full paying author of each accepted paper must register for the conference before the deadline (October 25, 2015). Please note that this is a firm deadline to complete your registration - no further extensions will be given.
Before uploading your camera ready paper, please:
- Check that title and abstract in EDAS match your camera-ready paper exactly.
- Please use Title Case for the paper title, i.e. capitalising all main words.
- Compare all author names in EDAS with the author list in your paper. They MUST BE identical and in the same order. This is very important because we will be using the information provided in EDAS to generate the final conference program and the table of contents for Springer Proceedings.
The abstract and title should be readable stand-alone and not contain any references or unexplained acronyms. You are allowed to modify abstract and author list yourself. You cannot modify the title for the paper, please send a mail to sirs2015@iiitmk.ac.in if that is necessary and give a valid reason.
