PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers should be submitted in PDF using the SAC 2008 conference
management system: http://sac.cs.iupui.edu/SAC2008

The paper should omit authors and affiliations. Author names and
addresses must not appear in the body of the paper, self-reference
must be in the third person, attribution to the author(s) must be in
the form of "author", and bibliographical entries by the author(s)
must also be in the form of "author".

Each submitted paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review
process by at least three referees. The conference proceedings will be
published by ACM. Hence, all accepted papers should be submitted in
ACM 2-column camera ready format for publication in the symposium
proceedings. The maximum number of pages allowed for the final papers
is 5 pages (about 4000 words), with the option (at additional expense)
to add up to three (3) more pages.  There is a set of templates to
support the required paper format for a number of document preparation
systems at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html
