Paper Preparation, Electronic Submission, and Workshop Proceedings

FLS is one of several Conference and Workshop series adhering to the JACoW (Joint Accelerator Conferences Web Site) standard for electronic publication of proceedings. Authors are advised to use the standard formatting templates for WORD or the appropriate style files for LaTeX. Please follow the given links to get all necessary information about preparing your paper for the FLS2012 workshop:

Authors are strongly advised to use the template that corresponds to the version of software they're using and to not transport the document across different platforms (e.g. MAC <-> PC) or across different versions of WORD on the same platform.

Use of the template and careful attention to the specifications will help the Editors to quickly process papers and enable a speedy delivery of the Workshop Proceedings.

Papers should be submitted (i.e. uploaded) by the agreeable deadline of Friday, 16 March 2012 (midnight GMT-5h).

Authors will be kept informed of the status of their papers by logging in to their FLS2012 SPMS account.

Workshop Proceedings

The Proceedings will be published as a pre-press release in early April 2012 the workshop homepage and finally on the JACoW website.

Contributed oral presentations and poster presentations may be up to 6 pages long. Invited papers may be up to 10 pages long.

Electronic File Submission

Authors are required to create a PostScript file of the paper. Please consult the "Information and Help" pages of the JACoW Website, for help in preparing PostScript files. Check that the PostScript file prints correctly and that the image quality is still the same as in the source file, especially for color images.

Name the files according to the paper's program code. For FLS 2012, paper codes are based on the sequential order of presentations on a given day (MO, TU, WE), a given session (A-D for session; P for Posters; W for Working Group) and for a given working group (RNG for Storage Rings, etc). File extensions should have three or fewer characters. The program codes for your paper(s) are linked to your FLS2012 SPMS account, and the system will not accept files that do not conform to this naming convention.

For example, for paper MOWDRNG02 (Monday Poster Grand Ballroom, poster 1), file names should be as follows:

MOWDRNG02.ps Postscript file
MOWDRNG02.doc or MOWDRNG02.tex Source file for WORD or LaTeX
MOWDRNG02_fig1.eps EPS file containing Fig.1 (LaTeX)
MOWDRNG02_fig2.jpg JPG file containing Fig. 2 (Word)

 

Once the files are ready for submission, authors should log in to their FLS2012 SPMS account and click the "File Upload" button to upload the PostScript file and all source files (Word or Latex, text and figures) needed to create the paper.

Please refrain from submitting a PDF file as this is not required! The Workshop Editors will generate the corresponding PDF files using specific settings!

Questions concerning paper preparation or electronic submission of files may be addressed to Todd Satogata.
