Submissions Guideline

Preparing and Submitting Electronic Files for the GLOBECOM2002

Please read the detailed instructions that follow before you start. Papers should be submitted in Portable Document Format(PDF) format ONLY. The quality of the final proceedings and CD-ROM is largely dependent upon receiving your help at this stage of the publication process.
 

 

Producing Your Paper
Acceptable Formats
Papers should be submitted in Portable Document Format(PDF) format ONLY 

PDF Files
To generate a PDF document, you can use

Including Graphics/Images
All images must be embedded in your manuscript. 
The type of graphics you include will affect the quality and size of your paper. In general, vector graphics such as those produced by most presentation and drawing packages can be used without concern and is encouraged. 

The use of bitmapped images such as those produced when a photograph is scanned requires significant storage space and must be used with care. Bitmap graphics store an image as a series of numbers that represent the color of each dot in the image. Increasing the size, resolution (dots per inch), or number of colors in an image will dramatically increase the size of the image.

If your paper contains many large images they will be down-sampled to reduce their size during the conversion process. However the automated process used will not always produce the best image, and you are encouraged to perform this by yourself on an image by image basis.


Suggestions for improving the quality bitmap graphics include: 

In general, bitmapped images should be limited to no more than 256 (8 bit) color/gray scale, 150 dots per inch, and should be kept as small as possible. 

Reduce the number of display colors before making screen shots. The majority of computer applications use less than 16 colors for their menus, dialogs, etc.

Select higher resolutions only for images that a reader will magnify. Image resolution of bitmapped images does not increase when readers zoom in on an image.
