Although we accept submissions in the form of PDF, PS, and DOC/RTF files, you are strongly encouraged to generate a PDF version for your paper before submitting it. It is highly recommended to use LaTeX to prepare your PDF submission.

Camera-ready submission instruction:

Step 1: Please prepare your final manuscript according to the Springer templates. You must include all the comments suggested by the reviewers.

NOTE: If the reviewer’s comments have not been addressed, your paper will NOT be included in the proceedings.

Step 2: Prepare the author’s response to the reviewers’ comments in a separate file (.pdf)

Step 3: Make sure that you have made a zip file named as PaperID.zip. The zip file includes the following materials:
