Important notes for authors.
There are three steps to submitting a correctly formatted manuscript that will be accepted by LAPC 2010. Please follow these steps carefully:
1. Preparing the Manuscript
You can prepare your manuscript in MS Word or LaTeX but this must be
converted to PDF before submitting. Please follow the instructions in
this WORD TEMPLATE carefully to format your manuscript correctly. Your
final document must satisfy all the stated requirements. Please respect
the 4 page limit for all non-invited manuscripts. NB the LAPC 2010 template is a 2 column format without headers footers or page numbers.
2. Converting the Manuscript
All manuscripts must be converted to the IEEE Xplore compliant PDF format before being submitted electronically. Please note, PDFs found to be non-IEEE Xplore compliant will require re-formatting by the author or may even be rejected.
You can create an IEEE Xplore compliant PDF file by using the IEEE PDF eXpress tool. Simply click on the link below, create yourself a new account and upload the manuscript for conversion. This tool also allows you to check PDF files you have created with your own PDF Writer for IEEE Xplore compatibility.

3. Submitting the Manuscript
Once the PDF file has been created successfully, please submit it electronically using EDAS. Take the following steps to ensure successful submission: Note, the deadline to register your paper on EDAS is 30th June 2010 at 23:59 New York time.
- If you do not already have an EDAS account, please create one.
- Log on and select LAPC 2010 from the conference listings. You will need to provide a title, an abstract (up to 150 words) and all author details. Please ensure all names, addresses and email details are correctly entered as this information will appear in the conference proceedings.
- Upload the PDF Manuscript. Once uploaded, you can visit your manuscript details at any time to view progress and make changes.
- If you will need a visa to travel to the Conference and are worried that this may take time to organise then please upload your paper EARLY and contact us to let us know that the online version is ready for review. We will then start to review your paper before the deadline is reached in order to give you an early response.
