Paper Submission Guidelines CoNEXT requires that papers not be submitted simultaneously to any other conference or publication, and that submissions not be previously published. All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality and relevance. Authors of accepted papers will need to sign an ACM copyright release form. Electronic copies of the camera-ready papers will be published on the conference web site before the conference, unless authors specifically request that this not be done.

The formatting requirements and step-by-step submission instructions for CoNEXT papers are given below.

Formatting Guidelines

  Submissions must be no longer than twelve (12) pages in double column format with 1" margins and at least a 10 point font, larger if possible. This length includes everything: figures, tables, references, appendices and so forth. Longer submissions will not be reviewed, and your goal as an author is to produce a clearly readable submission within these constraints.
  Provide an abstract of fewer than 200 words.
  Number the pages.
  The paper must be submitted in PDF or Postscript format.
  We must be able to display and print your submission exactly as we receive it and using only standard tools (Adobe Acrobat Reader for PDF and Ghostview for PS, with no loading of special fonts) and a postscript printer; please note that most personal printers (e.g., inkjet) are not postscript printers.
  Make sure that the paper prints well on black-and-white printers, not color printers. This is especially true for plots and graphs in the paper.
  Make sure that the output has been formatted for printing on LETTER (8.5" by 11") size paper.
  Make sure that the size of the file is less than 15 MB, if at all possible.

Best PhD Student Paper Award

Papers that are candidate for the best PhD student paper award should be clearly identified as such in a cover letter, which should be signed by the student’s supervisor. To be eligible for the award, the PhD student should be the principal author and presenter of the submitted paper. The selection will be based on both the quality of the written paper and its presentation. The award sponsored by E-NEXT and the certificate will be presented at the conference dinner.
