ACM Classification

 

Your authors should apply ACM Computing Classification categories and terms. The templates provide space for this indexing and point authors to the Computing Classification Scheme at: http://www.acm.org/about/class/1998.

You should examine the Classification Scheme yourself in some detail in order to give specific direction to your authors, suggesting which areas of the Scheme they should look at closely to find appropriate categories.

 

Example: C.2.1 Network Architecture and Design

 

Keywords

 

You may select any keywords your paper want to be indexed with.

 

Title

 

Please make sure that the first character of the title of your paper is in UPPERCASE.

 

Files to Submit

 

1.    Source files: We need the Word (.doc) or Latex (tex) files for each submission. Please make sure that your paper is formatted for US letter (8.5 in. by 11 in.).

2.    PDF files

3.    ACM copyright form

 

Page Numbers, Headers and Footers

 

Your final submission SHOULD NOT contain any footer or copyright string information in the footer area, headers or page numbers (but the correct ACM copyright notice should appear on the first page in the lower-left). The papers will be paginated in a determined order by the chairs and added to the bottom upon finalization.

 

Editing (For .doc users)

 

a. Use the Word document template provided. The template contains the correct copyright block and information.

b. Name your .doc file using your CFI Paper # with the lead author's last name (example: CFI055- jongwon.doc). Be sure to format your document for American Letter (8-1/2x11). Please check that your submission adheres to the set page limit for your type of submission. Check PCS for your submission id #.

c. To convert your document file to PDF, please refer to the following link: http://www.acm.org/publications/WORD%20to%20PDF%20instructions.txt. The optimal distiller setting is found on this link: http://www.acm.org/publications/ACM.joboptions. This is done to ensure that the Type 1 fonts will be embedded in the PDF.

d. Also, please print, sign, and date the ACM copyright form and submit an electronic copy.

*Note: Only one form is usually needed and can be signed by the lead or contact author. A second form may be requested from co-authors depending on any US government affiliations.

 

Editing (for LaTeX users)

a. Use the Latex template provided. All files must be formatted using the ACM Proceedings class file. The Latex file contains the correct copyright block and information.

b. LaTex user, you MUST use Type 1 fonts for your submission, for help please see: http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/sigfaq.htm#a14.

If you still have difficulty check with your system administrator. PDF LaTex can be used to create a pdf file for your submission, but all fonts MUST be embedded. If all the fonts are not embedded in the pdf you submit, we will distill the mandatory PS file that is submitted. Be sure to see the recommendations for your figures and images above (item #D).

c. Please include all text (including references from the .bbl file) into one complete .tex document. We do not want a directory of multiple files, only one .tex file with all text from your submission. We do need the figures, since we may recompile your submission to put updated crdata. We may use the one (single-complete) source file to extract text and data that we need to complete the metadata for the ACM digital library.

d. Name your .tex, .pdf, and .ps file using your CFI Paper # with the lead author's last name (example: CFI055-jongwon.tex / CFI055-jongwon.pdf and .ps). Be sure to format your document for American Letter (8-1/2x11). Please check that your submission adheres to the set page limit for your type of submission.

e. Also, please print, sign, and date the ACM copyright form and submit an electronic copy.

*Note: Only one form is usually needed and can be signed by the lead or contact author. A second form may be requested from co-authors depending on any US government affiliations.
