Paper submission and reviewing for ESWC 2008 is electronic via the conference submissions site:

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ESWC2008

In common with many other conferences, submission is a two stage process. Authors must upload an abstract before the 7th December deadline — please note that submission of an abstract is mandatory. Full papers should then be uploaded by the 14th December deadline. Please also select topics for your abstract submission. Topics are used to assign reviewers — appropriate topics will help to ensure a quality review process.

Papers should not exceed fifteen (15) pages in length and must be formatted according to the information for LNCS authors. Papers must be submitted in PDF (Adobe's Portable Document Format) format and will not be accepted in any other format. Papers that exceed 15 pages or do not follow the LNCS guidelines risk being rejected automatically without a review. Authors of accepted papers will be required to provide semantic annotations for the abstract of their submission -- details of this process will be provided on the conference Web page at the time of acceptance. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference.
