Submission Guidelines
All accepted papers of ARES 2012 and associated workshops were published as ISBN proceedings published by Conference Publishing Services (CPS): http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6329167

Authors are invited to submit research and application papers according the following guidelines: two columns, single-spaced, including figures and references, using 10 pt fonts and number each page.

We solicit the submission of research papers (6 pages) representing original, previously unpublished work. Submitted papers will be evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition.

Duplicate submissions are not allowed. A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if it has been submitted to (or if it has been already accepted to be published in) other conferences/workshops/journals. Duplicate submissions thus will be automatically rejected without review.

Contact author must provide the following information: Paper title, authors' names, affiliations, postal address, phone, fax, and e-mail address of the author(s), about 200-250 word abstract, and about five keywords. Paper registration and submission is done through the ARES Paper Management System at the following address: https://confdriver.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ares2013

Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the ARES conference and present the paper in the workshop. No-show papers will be removed from the digital library after the workshop. Guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s) will be given after the notification of acceptance. ARES requires anonymized submissions, so please remove all author names and obvious self references from your submission.
