General guidelines to improve the contents
of your final paper for Euromedia'98
Please take note of these comments before writing your paper
- If your paper describes a method or a technique,
always give examples of the use of that method or
technique. If possible, include (references to) empirical
evidence that your method or technique works the way it
is supposed to.
- If your paper describes an application example,
always point out the methods and techniques
you used to get the results that are described in the
paper. Add screen-dumps if possible. Literature
references might be sufficient.
- Give an indication of the current stage your work
or research is in. Is it still preliminary? Is there a
commercially available product on the market? Is your
work being applied by others or in other domains?
- Start your paper with a brief abstract. Do not
include material in the abstract that will not be
described in the paper.
- Always indicate the novel aspects that will be
covered in the paper with respect to earlier work of
yourself and of others. In what way does your
contribution differ from what has been done before?
- Make sure your introduction is appropriate. An
introduction should give the general background for your
research, and references to general literature on the
subject for interested readers.
- Make sure your literature references are correct,
and up-to-date. Others will use your paper to find more
information on the subject your paper is about. Do not
only use your own references, but also refer to
work done by others.
- End your paper with conclusions and further
research and recommendations. Your conclusions must
be based on the material that can be found in the paper!
- If you are not a native English speaker, have your
English corrected before you send in your final
paper. If the use of the English language is below
standards, your paper might be rejected.

your abstract, keywords and bio on floppy disk (3 1/2)
in ASCII format, for IBM compatible PC and a
