EuroForth 2008 Call for Papers and Submission Instructions

Call for papers

EuroForth brings together researchers and practitioners from the Forth community. Papers are solicited on all aspects of Forth (applications, implementations, extensions, etc.) and related topics.

There are two types of paper you can submit: refereed (academic stream), or unrefereed (industrial stream). Refereed papers will be reviewed by experts against criteria for scientific papers, such as originality and technical quality, and then will be accepted to or rejected from the academic stream. If you are not familiar with scientific papers and their reviewing process, you may want to read guides like How To Get Your SIGGRAPH Paper Rejected, How to Write an Informatics Paper or The Researcher's Bible.

Submission Instructions

Please submit in Postscript (viewable with ghostscript) or PDF (viewable with xpdf) format. If you use MS printer drivers to create the Postscript, please submit the original format in addition to Postscript/PDF. Put the file(s) on a web server and send the URL (preferred), or send it as attachment with MIME content-type "application/postscript", "application/pdf" or "application/octet-stream", or include the Postscript literally in a completely unencoded mail (no MIME encodings).

For the final camera-ready copy, the format should be A4 with at least 25mm of margins, unnumbered.

Here are guides on how to create PostScript files on Windows and MacOS. To check the result, use a Postscript viewer.
