Templates
Use of the JACoW templates is mandatory for ERL2024. Always download the latest template files before starting, even if you already have them from previous conferences. You can get the template files from here ( Microsoft Word, LaTex, and OpenDocument ).
Always use the styles contained in the templates. These styles will automatically ensure correct typesetting and layout, and ensure you are not called to fix these problems again.
Length of Contributions
Papers may be up to 7 pages. No other parts of the paper but references are allowed in this extra page.
Page limits will be strictly respected, all papers exceeding their limit will be returned to the author for revision or, at last, rejected.
Basic Hints and Tools
We suggest to also read through the following pages or use the linked tools to ensure an acceptable quality of your papers:
- Common Author Oversights
- Formatting Citations
- Reference Search Tool (instructions)
- CAT Scan Editor – docx & LaTeX validator (instructions)
- Description of Electronic Processing of Submissions
References
We have observed that fixing bad references in submitted papers is the most time consuming job for editors in the Proceedings Office.
Basic rules:
- All bibliographical and web references should be numbered and listed at the end of the paper in a section called “References.”
- When citing a reference in the text, place the corresponding reference number in square brackets, e.g. [3].
- A URL may be included as part of a reference, but the hyperlink must be removed (In Word use ctrl+k to remove).
