Submissions to IVA'03

Proposals for contributions to the IVA'03 programme should be made in written form. We distinguish between the following categories of submissions:

  • Long Research Papers

  • Long papers are reserved for reports on mature research results. The expected length of a long paper should be in the range of 6-8 pages.

  • Short Research Papers

  • Short papers should not exceed 4 pages in total. Authors may choose this category if they wish to report on smaller case studies or ongoing but interesting and original research efforts.

  • Demo Submissions - System Papers

  • Authors who wish to demonstrate their system during IVA'03 may choose this category and provide a description of their system, installation, or demo. System papers should not exceed 4 pages in total.

  • Poster Submissions

  • The conference venue will provide space to show posters during IVA'03. Authors who wish to display a poster should submit either a one-page description of the poster content, or a one-page sketch of the poster.
Final versions of papers (long, short, demo/system, poster descriptions) will appear in the IVA conference proceedings which will be published in the LNCS/LNAI Series by Springer Verlag.
