General Information

Contributed Papers should be written in English. Papers submitted to IIT’06 must be original and previously unpublished. It is expected they will describe new contributions to the areas outlined in the Scope of the Conference. A full paper of not more than 5 pages including abstract in standard IEEE double column format is requested. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference if the paper is to be included in the program.

Papers will be reviewed by peers in a process whereby the author is known to the reviewers but the author will not know who reviews their paper. Conference contributions will be reviewed by two independent referees. If the paper is accepted for presentation, it must be presented by one of its authors.

The proceedings will be reviewed and printed in BLACK AND WHITE only. All participants will receive a CD-ROM, so it is acceptable to use color in your contributions. However, please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that your contribution is still readable in black and white, as the proceedings will form the primary record of the conference in libraries, etc.
