Instructions for Submitting
Final Versions of Accepted Papers and Posters:
Preparing Your Paper
We would like to encourage you to prepare your
paper in LaTeX2e. Papers should be formatted using the SIAM Data Mining macro,
which is available through the SIAM website. You can access it at
http://www.siam.org/tex/books/booktex.htm. The filename is soda2e.all. Make sure you use the macros for Data Mining proceedings; papers prepared using other proceedings macros will not
be accepted.
No chapter numbers, running
heads, or page numbers should be included in your file. If your paper does not meet these requirements, it may
not be included in the proceedings.
Check your paper carefully for typos and send
only the final version as SIAM will not be making any corrections
to your file. If the title of your
paper has changed since you submitted your abstract, please let us know.
Additionally, if you have added or dropped an author, please let us know.
SIAM has designed the macro and formatting
instructions to ensure a uniform presentation throughout the proceedings. If
formatting instructions are not followed, we cannot guarantee that your paper
will be included in the proceedings.
Page Limitation
Regular and poster papers
should have a maximum length of 12 pages.
Because of the large number of contributors,
we must ask you to adhere strictly to the page limitation specified. If your
paper exceeds this amount, it may not be included in the proceedings.
Submission of Paper
You must submit your paper in .pdf format.
PDFs must be created using Adobe Acrobat. If you are unable to create
your PDF using Adobe Acrobat, please submit the Postscript file of your paper (with fonts embedded) to SIAM for PDF
creation.
Name your file SubmissionID_lastname.pdf and submit it to ftp.siam.org, using the anonymous login. Place your file in the folder
pub/incoming/datamining2009.
Please make sure that your
file is transferred in binary mode. We are unable to receive files transferred
in ASCII mode.
Please notify Nancy Griscom
via e-mail (griscom@siam.org) when you have ftp’d your files to SIAM. Due
to the volume of submissions leading up to the due date, notification of
receipt of your file may not be immediate.
Copyright Release
A signed copyright release must be submitted
by the January 26, 2009 deadline. Please fill out the title and author
