Use the URL provided in the automatic reply to upload your paper no later

Electronic submission of both short abstracts and papers is strongly
preferred. If an electronic submission is not possible, send one copy of the
short abstract and 6 copies of the paper to:
Tova Milo (milo@post.tau.ac.il)
I.N.R.I.A.-Rocquencourt
78153 Le Chesnay Cedex, FRANCE
Submission Format
Titles and short abstracts: Authors are required to submit
a paper title and short abstract about 100 words
before submitting
their paper (see the important dates).
Papers: The address, telephone number, FAX number, and
e-mail address of the contact author should appear on the title
page of the submission. Submissions should be limited to 10 pages
(with font size at least 11 pts) and may consist of extended
abstracts. Each submission must provide sufficient detail to allow
the program committee to assess its merits and should include
appropriate references to and comparisons with the literature.
It is recommended that each submission begin with a succinct
statement of the problem, a summary of the main results, and a
brief explanation of their significance and relevance to the
conference, all suited for the non-specialist. Technical
development of the work, directed to the specialist, should follow.
If the authors believe more details are necessary to substantiate
the main claims of the paper, they may include a clearly marked
appendix to be read at the discretion of the committee.
Awards
Best Newcomer Award: An award will be given to the best
submission, as judged by the program committee, written solely
by authors who have never published in earlier PODS proceedings.
Best Paper Award: There will also be an award for the
best of all papers submitted, as judged by the program committee.
The program committee reserves the right to give both awards to
the same paper, not to give an award, or to split an award among
several papers. Papers authored or co-authored by program committee
members are not eligible for an award.
