Submission format and instructions:
Authors are required to submit a paper title and short abstract (about
100 words) before submitting the paper. The address, telephone
number, FAX number, and e-mail address of the contact author should
appear on the title page of the submission. Submissions should be
limited to 10 pages (with font size at least 11 pts) and may consist
of extended abstracts. Each submission must provide sufficient detail
to allow the program committee to assess its merits and should include
appropriate references to and comparisons with the literature. It is
recommended that each submission begins with a succinct statement of
the problem, a summary of the main results, and a brief explanation of
their significance and relevance to the conference, all suited for the
non-specialist. Technical development of the work, directed to the
specialist, should follow. If the authors believe more details are
necessary to substantiate the main claims of the paper, they may
include a clearly marked appendix to be read at the discretion of the
committee. Only electronic submissions are accepted. Instructions for
(electronic) submissions will be posted on PODS's home page.
Awards:
Best Newcomer Award: An award will be given to the best
submission, as judged by the program committee, written solely by authors
who have never published in earlier PODS proceedings.
Best Paper Award: There will also be an award for the
best of all papers submitted, as judged by the program committee.
The
program committee reserves the right to give both awards to the same
paper, not to give an award, or to split an award among several
papers. Papers authored or co-authored by PC members are not eligible
for an award.
