1. "template01" illustrates how to organize a full paper for the PARA'04
Springer-Verlag conference proceedings. There are here two latex files
"template01_ver1.tex" and "template01_ver2.tex". The "template01_ver1.tex"
file is the test file. It should run separately. The "template01_ver2.tex"
will be included to the proceeding book together with other paper latex
files. This two files are almost identical. The "template01_ver2.tex"
became from the "template01_ver1.tex" where the front latex commands

            \documentclass[]{llncs}
            \pagestyle{myheadings}
            \usepackage[]{graphicx}
            \begin{document}
        
and the end command

            \end{document}

were commented out and appendix deleted. You should provide to me two latex
files, one to be compiled as a stand-alone document (as in
"template01_ver1.tex"), another as a part of the proceedings book (as in
"template01_ver2.tex").

2. The "\title" command contains the title of the paper.

3. The "\author" command contains the speaker name and co-author names. The
name should be in the order: a main first name, all the middle names should
be abbreviated by a first letter (after "dot"), no space should separate
the middle initials. Then the family name. 1) I am "Arthur Fisher" then
"Arthur Fisher". 2) I am "George Bonaventure Ford" then "George B. Ford".
3) I am "John Adam Isak Peterson" then "John A.I. Peterson". 4) I am "Paul
Arthur Adam Isak David de Paris" then "Paul A.A.I.D. de Paris". Every name
should be followed by the Springer command "\inst{k}", where k=1,2,...,n
and n is a total number of institutions that co-authors represent. About
"\inst{k}" see below.

4. "\institute" is a Springer command defined in "llncs.cls" style file. It
defines speaker's and co-authors' institution which is connected with the
name(s) by the "\inst{k}" command (see above). For more details see the
template "template_ver1.tex" and "template_ver2.tex".
 
4. Next go the "\maketitle" command.

5. The "\index" command(s) for the names in point 3. look:

     \index{Fisher, Arthur}
     \index{Ford, George B.}
     \index{Peterson, Paul A.I.D.}
     \index{de Paris, Paul A.A.I.D.}

6. The "\markboth{names}{short_title}. The "short_title" should not be
longer than 60 characters. The "names": if there is only one author

  \markboth{Arthur Fisher}{short_title} or
  \markboth{Paul A.A.I.D. de Paris}{short_title}

if there are two co-authors

  \markboth{A. Fisher and P.A.A.I.D. de Paris}
           {short_title}

if there are more than 2 co-authors and the length of names is not longer
then 60 characters

  \markboth{A. Fisher, G.B. Ford and J.A.I. Peterson}
           {short_title}

if the length of co-author names is longer than 60 characters

  \markboth{A. Fisher and et al.}{short_title}

7. The abstract should be no longer than 75 words. The text of the abstract
should be closed between

   \begin{abstract} ... ... ... \end{abstract}

8. The '\section{Introduction}'

9. The titles of the next sections depend of your paper.

10. The "template_ver1.tex" and "template_ver1.tex" contain several graph
include commands. The graphs (pictures) files should be prepared as "*.eps"
files. The "template_ver1.tex" and "template_ver1.tex" include graphs side
by side using the latex commands "figure" and "tabular". Appendix has been
added to demonstrate inclusion of graphs in a simple way.

11. The bibliography must be connected by "\cite{...}" command with the
text of the paper. It must be included in the latex file. See
"template_ver1.tex" and "template_ver2.tex" files.

Thank you very much.
