PDF version of this document

Deadlines:

The camera-ready versions of accepted papers and the signed copyright forms are due on December 28th, 2010 and are to be submitted to ASIACCS 2011 EasyChair using your EasyChair author account.

At least one author of each accepted paper should register as "Author" for the conference before January 31st, 2011.


Preparation of the final versions:

Each paper should be prepared using the official ACM SIG proceedings format. Templates are available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates/. Please use Option 2 – Tighter Alternate style.

Authors unsure of how to classify their paper according to the ACM classification system can find more information at http://www.acm.org/class/how_to_use.html. You can access the Computing Classification Scheme directly at http://www.acm.org/about/class/1998.

All papers should have Type 1 fonts (scalable), not Type 3 (bit-mapped). All fonts must be embedded within the PDF file:
If using Adobe Reader, from the menu select File->Properties... and then select the Fonts tab. You should see "(Embedded Subset)" next to each font and there should be no Type 3 fonts.
From a *nix terminal, execute the pdffonts command on your PDF document. The listing should show no Type 3 fonts, and all fonts listed should have "yes" under "emb" and "sub".

Each paper should have one PDF file and all the source files submitted. The PDF file should be named as follows: asiaccs<paper no>-firstauthorlastname.pdf.
Example: if John Smith were the first author of the paper with number 120, the file name would be: asiaccs120-smith.pdf.
The PDF file and all the source files should be zipped into one file with the filename set to asiaccs<paper no>-firstuathorlastname.zip

Each paper should have no page numbers.

Each regular paper can have up to 10 pages, and each short paper can have up to 5 pages in the ACM proceedings format.

The authors can purchase up to 2 additional pages at US$150 per page. Payment for extra pages should be made by one author at the time of registration.

Each paper should include the following copyright information at the bottom of the first page left column:
"Permission to make digital or hard copies of all or part of this work for personal or classroom use is granted without fee provided that copies are not made or distributed for profit or commercial advantage and that copies bear this notice and the full citation on the first page. To copy otherwise, to republish, to post on servers or to redistribute to lists, requires prior specific permission and/or a fee.
