Workshop Proceedings
The workshop proceedings will be published by the American Institute of Physics. The deadline for submitting a paper is Monday, September 8, 2008. Detailed instructions for the preparation of the camera-ready manuscripts can be found at:
http://proceedings.aip.org/proceedings//6x9.jsp.
Use the 6x9 inch template. The editors will accept manuscripts in PDF format that are camera-ready. If using WORD or LaTeX, please generate a PDF file for submission using these instructions. Papers will be printed in black & white/grayscale in the bound proceedings (color printing of figures is available in the bound proceedings if the author pays the additional color printing charge). There will also be a CD-ROM version in which figures will appear in color. To accommodate both forms, please do not refer to color properties in the manuscript text or figure captions and use figures that remain distinct when printed in grayscale. Do not use page numbers (AIP will supply these). Consult the AIP Style Manual if you require guidance on the AIP style. The maximum length of each contributed paper (including student posters) is 6 pages. Plenary invited presentations and Working Group Summaries will be allowed a maximum of 9 pages.
