Deadlines and Submissions

Deadlines

Submission and Publication of Papers

IDAMAP invites submissions of either short papers (2 pages, up to 1500 words, leading to a short presentation at the meeting) or full papers (up to 6 pages/4500 words, leading to a long presentation at the meeting). Data analysis tools and description of problems should be submitted as abstracts (1 page, up to 750 words). Papers should be written in English. Authors should send an electronic submission in PDF format to both chairs (tomaz.curk@fri.uni-lj.si, lucia.sacchi@unipv.it); please use "IDAMAP SUBMISSION YOUR_NAME" as a subject, where YOUR_NAME is the surname of the first author. Alternatively to preferred PDF, submissions using Post Script or MS Word format are also welcome.

Submission Format

Manuscripts should be formatted two columns to a page, on A4 paper size, and with a 10-point times font for the text. A PDF-document is available with detailed instructions. We have prepared a set of LaTeX macros and a Microsoft Word template. All instructions and macros are the same as last year. Please submit your manuscript in PDF (preferred) or as MS Word file.

Publication of Papers

Accepted papers will appear in workshop notes that will be distributed among registered participants. A selection of contributors to IDAMAP 2009 will be invited to submit a revised and expanded version of their paper for publication in Schattauer's Methods of Information in Medicine journal. Publication is scheduled for late 2009/early 2010.
