The Paper
Submission site is now CLOSED
On-line
submission procedure:
Please read the formating instructions below.
You must register as a user on the submission
site (click here),
and then upload
your manuscript.
Please take the time to download back your own paper from the site and
verify its integral upload: your internet connection may
impose limits on upload size that we cannot identify or correct from
our end.

Formating instructions:
As with previous
3DIM conferences,
the entire paper submission and review process is electronic.
The Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press,
and will be available on-site. A CD-ROM of the Proceedings will be
included. Final formating instructions for accepted papers will come
from IEEE.
For the submission stage: papers submitted for
review must follow the IEEE
CS Press Proceedings two-column format. The maximum paper length
for
review as well as for publication is 8 pages. Papers
accepted for either oral or poster
presentation will be allocated the same number of pages (8) in the
final
version. There will be no provisions for purchasing additional pages.
The review process is anonymous, but not double-blind: while you are
not
requested to conceal your identity on the submitted manuscript, you may
do
so if you prefer. The reviewers will not have access to information
other
that the submitted PDF file.
Electronic manuscripts must be submitted in
Adobe Acrobat PDF
format, readable with at least version
5.0.x (English) of Acrobat Reader.
For LaTeX users: We provide a LaTeX
class and some conversion information that should assist you in
preparing
your paper for review (NOTE: please make sure you use the latest
version
of this class). If you are still using LaTeX 2.09 (and .sty files), you
are strongly urged to switch to LaTeX2e and the New Font Selection
System.
The fonts provided by the times package are slightly narrower
than the CM fonts, thus making it easier to fit your ideas in 8 pages.
More importantly, PDF files created with only Type 1 Fonts will be of
much
nicer appearance on screen.
Author FAQ:
Q1: Who will be publishing the Proceedings of
3DIM2005?
As was the case for previous
3DIM conferences, the final version of the papers will be published
by the IEEE Computer Society Press,
and the proceedings will be made available at the Conference. Every
accepted
paper will be published in the proceedings, in both paper and CD-ROM
version.
Formating requirements for the final paper will be provided by the
publisher,
if your paper is selected. For your manuscript, be sure to follow the instructions.
Q2: Are formats other than PDF acceptable for draft papers ?
No, we need to keep the number of formats to something manageable, so
we ask that you stick to Adobe Acrobat PDF. This facilitates the
handling
and distribution of manuscripts, and ensures that your paper appears to
the
reviewer in the form that you intend. There are several commercial and
free
tools and services to generate PDF files. Please ensure that you embed
all
non-standard fonts. You should test your file with the Adobe Acrobat
Reader
version 5.0 or later. If for some reason you are unable to produce a
PDF
file, please contact our Secretariat
at least 3 days before deadline to make special
arrangements.
PLEASE NOTE: details of the camera-ready final
paper format will be specified by the publisher upon acceptance.
Q3: Can I paper-mail or e-mail my submission ?
NO, we only accept electronic submissions via the
website. The software also manages the whole review process, and
electronic delivery of documents to referees is a key component for
ensuring an efficient review process.
Q4: Does a paper currently being considered by another conference can
qualify for submission to 3DIM2005 ?
No, only if it is rejected by the other
conference/publisher
prior to December 01 2004 can you submit it to 3DIM2005. It is
considered
bad form to have a paper simultaneously under review for two
publications.
Q5: What is due on the Paper Submission Deadline ?
The deadline is for us to receive, through this
website, the draft of your paper that will be sent to the Program
Committee for review. It must be a full
paper, formated according to instructions.
There will not be any conditional acceptances.
We will only accept papers in PDF format.
Please note that we will only accept a single file upload consisting of
your
paper in PDF. If your paper is accepted, referees may have suggestions
for
minor changes that would improve your paper. The format of the final
version
will be specified by the publisher, IEEE Computer Society Press.
