• Invited parallel session speakers designated by the chairperson have a page limit of 20 pages.

• A session summary by each chairperson is welcomed. The page limit is 20 pages.

• Parallel session participants have a page limit of 3 pages (this is an extended abstract containing the main idea and complete references).

SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:

All participants who delivered a talk at the meeting were emailed a username and password for web upload beginning on November 27, 2003 (starting with plenary speakers and chairpersons, extending over the following week period for the remaining recipients), with a link to the conference proceedings site: http://141.108.24.15:8000/menu.html

Once you enter the site, go to the upload article link at the top center of the webpage to upload your article. Once there you will see a list of your contributions, if more than one, identified by session. Click on the upload icon to the left of each item to insert the required information for each contribution and upload the file for it, created following the instructions on the proceedings web page 
http://www.icra.it/mg/mg10/proceeding/instructions_mg10.htm.

Note: the name of the TEX file must be "main.tex", even if you are submitting a single file.

It will then be processed and converted into pdf form for you to check that it has compiled correctly. You will receive an email with the latex log file when complete (usually only minutes). You may then return to the same upload page, reload it, and see links to the pdf and ps files. You may check them with the free Abobe Acrobat Reader (http://www.adobe.com) or Ghostscript (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost) software. You may continue uploading corrected files until the submission deadline. Once the submission deadline has passed and your article is reviewed by the editors and accepted, it will then be viewable from the link 'published proceedings' to the webpage for the search engine for the on-line proceedings.

It is very important that when entering your data for each upload, you type your name and coauthor's names and session talk title correctly, since  discrepancies with the data base lead to problems that are very labor intensive to correct. Your own name should already have been
supplied from the data base in the correct form. If it needs correction, please email the conference mailbox with the subject heading MG10: author upload name correction to alert us to this problem with the database information.

LOST USERNAME/PASSWORD:

If you accidentally lose the email with this information, or did not receive such an email by December 5, send an email to the conference website mg10@cbpf.br with the subject heading: MG10: need username/password. Be sure to document the session name and abbreviation to which your talk was submitted, and the chairperson's name if possible.
