Submission instructions

Papers must be less than 20 double-spaced pages long (formatted for printing in the Proceedings, papers may not be longer than 12 pages), have an abstract of 100–150 words, and be original material that has not been previously published nor is currently under review by another conference or journal.

Authors must submit papers electronically, using the instructions at http://gaia.cs.umass.edu/sigcomm2000/electronic_submission.htm. Authors not able to comply with these instructions should contact the Program Co-Chairs. Papers submitted after the deadline will not be considered without an ahead-of-time extension from the Program Co-Chairs.

All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality and relevance through double-blind reviewing, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Consult the Anonymity tips page for information on preparing a manuscript for double-blind review. Authors of accepted papers will need to sign an ACM copyright release form and present their paper at the conference. The Proceedings of the conference will be published as a special issue of ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review. The Program Committee may also select a few papers for possible publication in the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking. Electronic copies of the accepted papers will be published on the SIGCOMM 2000 web site prior to the conference unless authors specifically request that this not be done.
