\end{abstract} | |
\section{Introduction} | |
You are strongly encouraged to use \LaTeXe{} for the | |
preparation of your camera-ready manuscript together with the | |
corresponding Springer class file \verb+llncs.cls+. Only if you use | |
\LaTeXe{} can hyperlinks be generated in the online version | |
of your manuscript. | |
The \LaTeX{} source of this instruction file for \LaTeX{} users may be | |
used as a template. This is | |
located in the ``authors'' subdirectory in | |
\url{ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/instruct/} and | |
entitled \texttt{typeinst.tex}. There is a separate package for Word | |
users. Kindly send the final and checked source | |
and PDF files of your paper to the Contact Volume Editor. This is | |
usually one of the organizers of the conference. You should make sure | |
that the \LaTeX{} and the PDF files are identical and correct and that | |
only one version of your paper is sent. It is not possible to update | |
files at a later stage. Please note that we do not need the printed | |
paper. | |
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that it is not possible | |
to modify a paper in any way, once it has been published. This applies | |
to both the printed book and the online version of the publication. | |
Every detail, including the order of the names of the authors, should | |
be checked before the paper is sent to the Volume Editors. | |
\subsection{Checking the PDF File} | |
Kindly assure that the Contact Volume Editor is given the name and email | |
address of the contact author for your paper. The Contact Volume Editor | |
uses these details to compile a list for our production department at | |
SPS in India. Once the files have been worked upon, SPS sends a copy of | |
the final pdf of each paper to its contact author. The contact author is | |
asked to check through the final pdf to make sure that no errors have | |
crept in during the transfer or preparation of the files. This should | |
not be seen as an opportunity to update or copyedit the papers, which is | |
not possible due to time constraints. Only errors introduced during the | |
preparation of the files will be corrected. | |
This round of checking takes place about two weeks after the files have | |
been sent to the Editorial by the Contact Volume Editor, i.e., roughly | |
seven weeks before the start of the conference for conference | |
proceedings, or seven weeks before the volume leaves the printer's, for | |
post-proceedings. If SPS does not receive a reply from a particular | |
contact author, within the timeframe given, then it is presumed that the | |
author has found no errors in the paper. The tight publication schedule | |
of LNCS does not allow SPS to send reminders or search for alternative | |
email addresses on the Internet. | |
In some cases, it is the Contact Volume Editor that checks all the final | |
pdfs. In such cases, the authors are not involved in the checking phase. | |
\subsection{Additional Information Required by the Volume Editor} | |
If you have more than one surname, please make sure that the Volume Editor | |
knows how you are to be listed in the author index. | |
\subsection{Copyright Forms} | |
The copyright form may be downloaded from the ``For Authors" | |
(Information for LNCS Authors) section of the LNCS Website: | |
\texttt{www.springer.com/lncs}. Please send your signed copyright form | |
to the Contact Volume Editor, either as a scanned pdf or by fax or by | |
courier. One author may sign on behalf of all of the other authors of a | |
particular paper. Digital signatures are acceptable. | |
\section{Paper Preparation} | |
Springer provides you with a complete integrated \LaTeX{} document class | |
(\texttt{llncs.cls}) for multi-author books such as those in the LNCS | |
series. Papers not complying with the LNCS style will be reformatted. | |
This can lead to an increase in the overall number of pages. We would | |
therefore urge you not to squash your paper. | |
Please always cancel any superfluous definitions that are | |
not actually used in your text. If you do not, these may conflict with | |
the definitions of the macro package, causing changes in the structure | |
of the text and leading to numerous mistakes in the proofs. | |
If you wonder what \LaTeX{} is and where it can be obtained, see the | |
``\textit{LaTeX project site}'' (\url{http://www.latex-project.org}) | |
and especially the webpage ``\textit{How to get it}'' | |
(\url{http://www.latex-project.org/ftp.html}) respectively. | |
When you use \LaTeX\ together with our document class file, | |
\texttt{llncs.cls}, | |
your text is typeset automatically in Computer Modern Roman (CM) fonts. | |
Please do | |
\emph{not} change the preset fonts. If you have to use fonts other | |
than the preset fonts, kindly submit these with your files. | |
Please use the commands \verb+\label+ and \verb+\ref+ for | |
cross-references and the commands \verb+\bibitem+ and \verb+\cite+ for | |
references to the bibliography, to enable us to create hyperlinks at | |
these places. | |
For preparing your figures electronically and integrating them into | |
your source file we recommend using the standard \LaTeX{} \verb+graphics+ or | |
\verb+graphicx+ package. These provide the \verb+\includegraphics+ command. | |
In general, please refrain from using the \verb+\special+ command. | |
Remember to submit any further style files and | |
fonts you have used together with your source files. | |
\subsubsection{Headings.} | |
Headings should be capitalized | |
(i.e., nouns, verbs, and all other words | |
except articles, prepositions, and conjunctions should be set with an | |
initial capital) and should, | |
with the exception of the title, be aligned to the left. | |
Words joined by a hyphen are subject to a special rule. If the first | |
word can stand alone, the second word should be capitalized. | |
Here are some examples of headings: ``Criteria to Disprove | |
Context-Freeness of Collage Language", ``On Correcting the Intrusion of | |
Tracing Non-deterministic Programs by Software", ``A User-Friendly and | |
Extendable Data Distribution System", ``Multi-flip Networks: | |
Parallelizing GenSAT", ``Self-determinations of Man". | |
\subsubsection{Lemmas, Propositions, and Theorems.} | |
The numbers accorded to lemmas, propositions, and theorems, etc. should | |
appear in consecutive order, starting with Lemma 1, and not, for | |
example, with Lemma 11. | |
\subsection{Figures} | |
For \LaTeX\ users, we recommend using the \emph{graphics} or \emph{graphicx} | |
package and the \verb+\includegraphics+ command. | |
Please check that the lines in line drawings are not | |
interrupted and are of a constant width. Grids and details within the | |
figures must be clearly legible and may not be written one on top of | |
the other. Line drawings should have a resolution of at least 800 dpi | |
(preferably 1200 dpi). The lettering in figures should have a height of | |
2~mm (10-point type). Figures should be numbered and should have a | |
caption which should always be positioned \emph{under} the figures, in | |
contrast to the caption belonging to a table, which should always appear | |
\emph{above} the table; this is simply achieved as matter of sequence in | |
your source. | |
Please center the figures or your tabular material by using the \verb+\centering+ | |
declaration. Short captions are centered by default between the margins | |
and typeset in 9-point type (Fig.~\ref{fig:example} shows an example). | |
The distance between text and figure is preset to be about 8~mm, the | |
distance between figure and caption about 6~mm. | |
To ensure that the reproduction of your illustrations is of a reasonable | |
quality, we advise against the use of shading. The contrast should be as | |
pronounced as possible. | |
If screenshots are necessary, please make sure that you are happy with | |
the print quality before you send the files. | |
\begin{figure} | |
\centering | |
\includegraphics[height=6.2cm]{eijkel2} | |
\caption{One kernel at $x_s$ (\emph{dotted kernel}) or two kernels at | |
$x_i$ and $x_j$ (\textit{left and right}) lead to the same summed estimate | |
at $x_s$. This shows a figure consisting of different types of | |
lines. Elements of the figure described in the caption should be set in | |
italics, in parentheses, as shown in this sample caption.} | |
\label{fig:example} | |
\end{figure} | |
Please define figures (and tables) as floating objects. Please avoid | |
using optional location parameters like ``\verb+[h]+" for ``here". | |
\paragraph{Remark 1.} | |
In the printed volumes, illustrations are generally black and white | |
(halftones), and only in exceptional cases, and if the author is | |
prepared to cover the extra cost for color reproduction, are colored | |
pictures accepted. Colored pictures are welcome in the electronic | |
version free of charge. If you send colored figures that are to be | |
printed in black and white, please make sure that they really are | |
legible in black and white. Some colors as well as the contrast of | |
converted colors show up very poorly when printed in black and white. | |
\subsection{Formulas} | |
Displayed equations or formulas are centered and set on a separate | |
line (with an extra line or halfline space above and below). Displayed | |
expressions should be numbered for reference. The numbers should be | |
consecutive within each section or within the contribution, | |
with numbers enclosed in parentheses and set on the right margin -- | |
which is the default if you use the \emph{equation} environment, e.g., | |
\begin{equation} | |
\psi (u) = \int_{o}^{T} \left[\frac{1}{2} | |
\left(\Lambda_{o}^{-1} u,u\right) + N^{\ast} (-u)\right] dt \; . | |
\end{equation} | |
Equations should be punctuated in the same way as ordinary | |
text but with a small space before the end punctuation mark. | |
\subsection{Footnotes} | |
The superscript numeral used to refer to a footnote appears in the text | |
either directly after the word to be discussed or -- in relation to a | |
phrase or a sentence -- following the punctuation sign (comma, | |
semicolon, or period). Footnotes should appear at the bottom of | |
the | |
normal text area, with a line of about 2~cm set | |
immediately above them.\footnote{The footnote numeral is set flush left | |
and the text follows with the usual word spacing.} | |
\subsection{Program Code} | |
Program listings or program commands in the text are normally set in | |
typewriter font, e.g., CMTT10 or Courier. | |
\medskip | |

{\it Example of a Computer Program} | |
\begin{verbatim} | |
program Inflation (Output) | |
{Assuming annual inflation rates of 7%, 8%, and 10%,... | |

const | |
MaxYears = 10; | |
var | |
Year: 0..MaxYears; | |
Factor1, Factor2, Factor3: Real; | |
begin | |
Year := 0; | |
Factor1 := 1.0; Factor2 := 1.0; Factor3 := 1.0; | |
WriteLn('Year 7% 8% 10%'); WriteLn; | |
repeat | |
Year := Year + 1; | |
Factor1 := Factor1 * 1.07; | |
Factor2 := Factor2 * 1.08; | |
Factor3 := Factor3 * 1.10; | |
WriteLn(Year:5,Factor1:7:3,Factor2:7:3,Factor3:7:3) | |
until Year = MaxYears | |
end. | |
\end{verbatim} | |

\subsection{Citations} | |
For citations in the text please use | |
square brackets and consecutive numbers: \cite{jour}, \cite{lncschap}, | |
\cite{proceeding1} -- provided automatically | |
by \LaTeX 's \verb|\cite| \dots\verb|\bibitem| mechanism. | |
\subsection{Page Numbering and Running Heads} | |
There is no need to include page numbers. If your paper title is too | |
long to serve as a running head, it will be shortened. Your suggestion | |
as to how to shorten it would be most welcome. | |
\section{LNCS Online} | |
The online version of the volume will be available in LNCS Online. | |
Members of institutes subscribing to the Lecture Notes in Computer | |
Science series have access to all the pdfs of all the online | |
publications. Non-subscribers can only read as far as the abstracts. If | |
they try to go beyond this point, they are automatically asked, whether | |
they would like to order the pdf, and are given instructions as to how | |
to do so. | |
Please note that, if your email address is given in your paper, | |
it will also be included in the meta data of the online version. | |
\section{BibTeX Entries} | |
The correct BibTeX entries for the Lecture Notes in Computer Science | |
volumes can be found at the following Website shortly after the | |
publication of the book: | |
\url{http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/journals/lncs.html} | |
\subsubsection*{Acknowledgments.} The heading should be treated as a | |
subsubsection heading and should not be assigned a number. | |
\section{The References Section}\label{references} | |
In order to permit cross referencing within LNCS-Online, and eventually | |
between different publishers and their online databases, LNCS will, | |
from now on, be standardizing the format of the references. This new | |
feature will increase the visibility of publications and facilitate | |
academic research considerably. Please base your references on the | |
examples below. References that don't adhere to this style will be | |
reformatted by Springer. You should therefore check your references | |
thoroughly when you receive the final pdf of your paper. | |
The reference section must be complete. You may not omit references. | |
Instructions as to where to find a fuller version of the references are | |
not permissible. | |
We only accept references written using the latin alphabet. If the title | |
of the book you are referring to is in Russian or Chinese, then please write | |
(in Russian) or (in Chinese) at the end of the transcript or translation | |
of the title. | |
The following section shows a sample reference list with entries for | |
journal articles \cite{jour}, an LNCS chapter \cite{lncschap}, a book | |
\cite{book}, proceedings without editors \cite{proceeding1} and | |
\cite{proceeding2}, as well as a URL \cite{url}. | |
Please note that proceedings published in LNCS are not cited with their | |
full titles, but with their acronyms! | |
