Instructions for the Preparation and Submission of
Camera-Ready Manuscripts for CWIT 2001
The purpose of these
instructions is to help authors produce professional-looking camera-ready
manuscripts for the Proceedings of the 2001 Canadian Workshop on Information
Theory. We encourage you to follow
these instructions carefully.
Page Layout Instructions
Camera-ready
manuscripts must be submitted in a two-column format on letter size paper (8.5
inches by 11 inches). Margins of 0.75
inches on all sides are required, leaving an allowed printing area of 7.0
inches by 9.5 inches. Please do NOT
number pages or include any other markings in the margins of your manuscript.
The appearance of the
paper should emulate as closely as possible the style of papers that appear in
the IEEE Transactions on Information
Theory. Please refer to that
publication for an indication of appropriate styles for the title, headings and
subheadings, equations, figures, references, etc. The font sizes should NOT be
smaller than 10 pt.
The affiliation given
for the authors should include sufficient information to allow interested
parties to contact the authors. It is
strongly recommended that email addresses, in addition to mailing addresses, be
provided.
If absolutely
necessary, and only if the final manuscript is submitted in hard copy, figures
and/or tables may be neatly pasted into the manuscript. Hard copies should be
provided with laser print quality.
Length
Final manuscripts are
to be at most four pages in length, although up to two additional pages will be
published if an overlength charge of $CAN 200 per additional page accompanies
the workshop registration fee. Papers
will be truncated at four pages if overlength charges are not forwarded with
the author’s registration.
Electronic Format
It is highly
recommended that final manuscripts be submitted in electronic form. Electronic submission in PDF, PostScript, or
Microsoft Word format is encouraged.
Submission
Please submit
electronic versions of manuscripts to Ivan Fair at i.fair@ieee.ca.
If you must submit a
hard copy of your manuscript, please forward it to Ivan Fair at:

Faxed versions of
final manuscripts will not be accepted.
Submission Deadline
Final manuscripts must
be received by April 16, 2001. (Note
that this deadline has been extended from the date given on the original Call
for Papers.) This is a firm deadline so
as to enable timely printing of the proceedings. Manuscripts received after this deadline will not appear in the
workshop Proceedings.
Co-Requisite Registration
At least one author of
each paper is required to register for the workshop in order for the paper to
appear in the workshop Proceedings.
This registration must also be received by April 16, 2001. Instructions for registration, along with
the registration form, appear elsewhere on this web site.
