Camera-ready submission guidelines

The Camera-ready paper as well as the copyright signed form are due on September 6, 2019.

RSP and other events under ESWeek are sponsored by IEEE and ACM. This year, 2019, ACM holds the copyright of these events, including RSP. Thus, we ask the authors to use the ACM templates for preparing their final camera-ready paper.

Note that the RSP’2019 proceedings will be published and distributed in IEEE Xplore and ACM Digital Library.

 

Copyright form:

  • ACM will send you soon an email with complete instructions and a link to fill out and sign a "rights management form".
  • After completing your rights management form, you will be emailed the correct rights management text and bibliographic strip to place within your paper. Authors must enter this text into their paper on the first page in the lower left hand corner (see ACM templates below).

Note that as rights management emails are sent from an automated system, there is a chance that emails sent will wind up in SPAM folders. Please make sure that you set email SPAM settings to allow emails from rightsreview@acm.org

 

Camera-ready paper preparation:

Please make sure to consider the following guidelines in preparing the final camera-ready version of your paper:

  • All papers are allocated a maximum of 7 pages.
  • Addressing the comments of the reviewers.
  • Using the ACM two-column LaTeX (or Word) "sigconf" proceedings template available here. Please read and follow the template's instructions carefully.
  • Insert the ACM text about permissions, copyright, and DOI into your paper on the first page of the paper in the lower left hand corner. You will receive the appropriate text by email from ACM once you completed and submitted your rights management form (see above).

 

IEEE eXplore compliance:

All camera-ready submissions MUST be checked for IEEE eXplore compliance before final submission.
