HLPP 2003: For Authors

For the final version for PPL please provide me a LaTeX source (plus postscript figures) no later than 10 september 2003. The special issue will be published before the end of 2003.

For the PPL version:

• Final versions of papers, in PostScript or pdf, should be emailed to Frederic Loulergue no later than Wednesday 9 July (8:00 AM GMT).
• Papers must use this standard format, and must not exceed 12 pages (including references).
• Authors should use the PPL files below. Compile and print it; it contains important instructions (as well as serving as a useful template for your paper).
• Please note the following details:
  • Use American rather than British spellings (e.g. "synchronize" rather than "synchronise").
  • Capitalize the names of sections, figures, etc. in the body of the text (e.g. "in Fig. 1" and "in Section 2", rather than "in fig. 1" and "in section 2").
  • Put citations before punctuation marks (e.g. "as reported elsewhere [4]." rather than "as reported elsewhere. [4]").
  • Do not change any formatting details such as page dimensions, type sizes, or baselineskips in order to fit more text into the 12-page limit.

Detailed instructions for preparation of manuscripts are available in: Latex-2.09 (readme / Download)
