>> Author Guidelines <<

All submitted papers will undergo a blind reviewing process by at least two colleagues, eminent in the respective field. The accepted papers must have positive reviews.

In order to speed up the process and lower the cost of the Organization of the Conference, the submitted text must conform to the most possible extend to the Guidelines below. Although slight deviations may be accepted, keep in mind that significant deviations will hamper the process and may result to the omission of your work from the Book of Abstracts.

General

Texts may be sent in any Word processor format. MicroSoft Word 2000 or an earlier version is preferred.
All text must be sent by e-mail to the Conference Address third@edc.uoc.gr. In case of postal expedition a diskette with the file must be included.
Pictures, Drawings, Tables, etc must be embedded in the text. No links to other files are allowed.
Try to keep low the size of the file. Large files may cause problems especially over poor connection lines or if there are limitations to the file size, total or per message of the e-mail program or server used. You may also send the file in zip format.
Check your e-mail account for size limitations either in total or per message.
Keep in mind that the printing will be in Grey tones, not in color.
Pictures embedded should have the lowest possible resolution and colors in order to keep low the file size. A resolution of 256 colors or tones of gray are usually sufficient for non-colored printing. If possible, try to replace pictures with drawings or figures (of one simple layer). Try to avoid very sophisticated formatting; the file size will be increased. 'Save As' your work under a different name and/or in a different place may also limit its file size.
Avoid completely the use of macro commands. The organizing committee for reasons of safety against computer viruses has disabled all macro use in the files to be received.
In case of corrections to the text the whole file must sent again to replace the previous one. Do not send fragments of your work the organizing Committee will not make any patching.

Page Setup must include:

Paper Size A4 (210mm width by 297mm height)
Printing area 170mm width by 230mm height at the most with symmetric margins
A selection of Up and Down margins of 34 mm and Left and Right margins of 20mm fulfill the requirements above.
Use Portrait printing in the whole document.
Do not use Page Headers and/or no Page Footers
You may use Footnotes, clearly separated from the mainstream of text within the total printing area of 170mm X 210mm.
Use Justified Alignment. Do not use any other Paragraph or Line formatting
Text may be in 1 or 2 Columns. In the case of 2 columns, embedded objects (pictures, Tables, etc.) should be 1 column wide otherwise they must appear in the top or the bottom of the page.
Use everywhere the Normal Style (No Headings or other Styles).
Use Single Line Spacing.

Fonts

Use only the standard Fonts, Arial, Times, Courier, preferably in their Unicode version. If you use any other Font, 'Save' it together with your work (the file size, however will increase substantially). Try to limit Font Formats to Normal, Bold, Italic and Underline only. Recommended Font Size is 14 points for the title, 10 points for the abstracts and Footnotes, 10 points Bold and Normal for the Captions (of Figures, Tables, etc) and 12 points for the text. Do not use Font size smaller than 9 points.
