Publication Instructions for the 21st SOFE Papers
Publication Instructions for the 21st SOFE Papers
Papers will be published as IEEE/SOFE05 proceedings on CD-ROM only; there will be no printed copy. They will also be included in the IEEE Xplore database, and so will be accessible online. An abstract booklet will be distributed at the meeting and will also be available online.
Paper submission will be done completely online using the IEEE Website: http://www.ieee.org/organizations/pubs/confpub/sofe05/authors/
Templates and instructions for manuscript preparation and submission are on this website. There is also a link for online submission of a copyright form on this page. The copyright form MUST be submitted before your paper can be accepted.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT SUBMIT PDF or POSTSCRIPT FILES! You will be submitting your original source files for conversion to PDF. The PDFs used in production of the proceedings must adhere to a certain set of specifications set by IEEE, and the way to assure this is for IEEE to generate the PDF files from your original source file.
The file types that may be submitted are:
Rich Text
Format
Freelance

TeX (DVI and
all support files required)
Pagemaker
FrameMaker
QuarkXpress
Word Pro
Microsoft
Word
WordPerfect
After your file is submitted, IEEE will email you a PDF file for your review and correction. Please see the website above for more information.
Please be sure to
USE TEMPLATES FOR THIS
CONFERENCE. The format has changed, so don't
use templates from prior conferences. Make sure you use the templates
from this website when writing your paper. Since the IEEE SOFE papers
will not be peer reviewed, it is extremely important that you follow
the recommended format for publication uniformity.
