The deadline for submitting the camera-ready version of accepted papers is January 2nd.
Please return all files required to compile the properly formatted manuscript (including latex, bib, and any image files), as well as the signed author agreement form, by email to christos@berkeley.edu.
Submissions should be formatted using the LIPIcs LaTeX style availble here. Please make sure to include ACM 1998 classification and topical keywords; these are strictly required.
There is no page limit. In keeping with the spirit of conference proceedings, we encourage you to submit a reader-friendly manuscript of 12-15 pages at most, with the possibility of an appendix. No strict limit will be enforced.
As much as possible, we would appreciate if you could conform to the following typesetting rules:
Use pdflatex and an up-to-date LaTeX system.
Use further LaTeX packages only if required. Avoid usage of packages
like enumitem, enumerate, cleverref, natbib, wrapfig. Keep it simple,
i.e. use as few additional packages as possible.
Add custom made macros carefully and only those which are needed in
the article (i.e., do not simply add your convolute of macros
collected over the years).
Do not use a different main font. For example, the usage of the
times-package is forbidden.
Provide full author names (especially with regard to the first name)
in the \author macro and in the \Copyright macro.
Fill out the \subjclass and \keywords macros. For the \subjclass,
please refer to the ACM classification.
Take care of suitable linebreaks and pagebreaks. No overfull \hboxes
should occur in the warnings log.
Provide suitable graphics of at least 300dpi (preferrably in pdf
format).
Use the provided sectioning macros: \section, \subsection,
\subsection*, \paragraph, \subparagraph*, ... “Self-made” sectioning
commands (for example, \noindent{\bf My subparagraph.} will be removed
and replaced by standard LIPIcs style sectioning commands.
Do not alter the spacing of the lipics-v2016.cls style file. Such
modifications will be removed.
Do not use conditional structures to include/exclude content.
Instead, please provide only the content that should be published – in
one file – and nothing else.
Remove all comments, especially avoid commenting large text blocks
and using \iffalse ... \fi constructions.
* Keep the standard style (plainurl) for the bibliography as provided
by the sample article. (natbib will be disabled.)
Use BibTex and provide exactly one BibTex file for your article. The
BibTex file should contain only entries that are referenced in the
article, preferably with a DOI. Please make sure that there are no
errors and warnings with the referenced BibTex entries.
