the publishers of the HiPC 2001 Proceedings. Please follow the information
given below, instead of the author information at the Springer Verlag
website.

chair:

Formatting Instructions
Proceedings and Other Multi-author Volumes
You will get the best results and your files will be easiest to
handle if you use LaTeX2e for the preparation of your camera-ready
manuscript together with the corresponding Springer class file llncs.cls.
Only if you use LaTeX2e and llncs.cls will Springer Verlag be able
to add hyperlinks to your manuscript in the online version. The
LaTeX2e
macro package for LNCS contains further files: llncs.dem
is a sample input file which you may take as a source for your own
input.llncs.doc (a TEX file) is the documentation of the class,
here you can find detailed instructions showing how the macro package
works. llncs.dvi
is the resulting DVI file of llncs.doc to enable you to print out
the documentation directly. Springer Verlag also provides a LaTeX2e
source file of "Authors' Instructions", which may serve
as a further sample input. Please follow the submission instructions
in this page instead of those mentioned in Springer Verlag's "Author's
Instructions" file. You can download it as a ZIP
archive or you can download the TEX
file for the text and the EPS
file for the figure separately.
If you are not able to use LaTeX2e you may use Springer Verlag's
old macro packages for LaTeX
or for TeX.
Springer Verlag does not encourage the use of MS Word, particularly
as the layout of the pages (the position of figures and paragraphs)
can change from printout to printout. However, Springer Verlag does
provide the template sv-lncs.dot
(for use with PC systems) or sv-lncs
(for use with Macintosh systems) to help MS Word users to prepare
their camera-ready manuscripts and to enable Springer Verlag to
use their source files for the online version of the LNCS. Please
read the documentation of the template sv-lncs.doc
carefully (also available in PDF
format), Springer Verlag also provides
typeinst.doc, which is the "Authors' Instructions"
as an example input. Please follow the submission instructions in
this page instead of those mentioned in Springer Verlag's "Author's
Instructions" file. You can download all four files as a ZIP
archive. With some Web browsers the templates may be destroyed
during transfer. Thus it is better to download the ZIP archive.
Monographs
For LaTeX-users Springer Verlag provides the macro package CLMono01
which is part of CLMoMu01,
and for LaTeX2e users Springer offers a beta version of CLMono01
for LaTeX2e which is part of CLMoMu01
for LaTeX2e. Do not hesitate to use this beta version. For
information about the macro packages read the read.me-files first.
A detailed documentation of the packages is given in clm1-doc.dvi;
clmomu01.doc
is the source file of the documentation.
If you would like to access Springer Verlag's sample file, please
send an email to [email protected].
For plain-TeX users Springer Verlag provides CPMono01 which is
part of CPMoMu01.
Headings
Headings should be capitalized (i.e., nouns, verbs, and all other
words except articles, prepositions, and conjunctions should be
set with an initial capital) and should, with the exception of the
title, be aligned to the left. Words joined by a hyphen are subject
to a special rule. If the first word can stand alone, the second
word should be capitalized.
Here are some examples of headings: "Criteria to Disprove
Context-Freeness of Collage Languages", "On Correcting
the Intrusion of Tracing Non-deterministic Programs by Software",
"A User-Friendly and Extendable Data Distribution System",
"Multi-flip Networks: Parallelizing GenSAT".
Figures
If possible, please produce your figures electronically
and integrate them into your text-file. For LaTeX and TeX users
Springer recommends using the style-files psfig
or epsf.
