DISC 2013

Submission

Authors are now invited to submit papers electronically in the submission site which is now open on EasyChair.
Please make sure to follow the submission guidelines given in the call for papers  and below.
  • Registration and abstract (the cover page) submission deadline is May 12th 2013 (any where on earth).
  • Submission deadline is May 20th 2013 23:59:59 PDT  (Pacific Day Time)
 Every submission must be in English, in .ps or .pdf format, and begin with a cover page (not a cover letter) including: (1) title,  (2) authors’ names and affiliations, (3) contact author’s postal and email address, and telephone number, (4) one paragraph abstract of the paper, (5) indication of whether this is a regular paper or a brief announcement, (6) indication of whether the paper is eligible for best student paper award.

A submission for a regular presentation must report on original research that has not previously appeared, and has not been concurrently submitted to a journal or conference with published proceedings. Any overlap with a published or concurrently submitted paper must be clearly indicated. A regular submission must not exceed 10 single-column pages using at least 11 point font on letter paper (excluding cover page and references). Authors are expected to include all the ideas necessary for an expert to verify the central claims in the paper.  If necessary, the details may appear in a clearly marked appendix, which will be read at the discretion of the program committee.

A brief announcement submission must not exceed 3 pages in the same format. It is permissible for the material in brief announcements to be published in other conferences.

Submissions not conforming to these rules and papers outside of the scope of the conference will be rejected without consideration.

If requested by the authors on the cover page, a regular submission that is not selected for a regular presentation can be considered for the brief announcement format. Such a request will not affect consideration of the paper for a regular presentation.
