[Note: Each
accepted paper must have at least one author
registered for the
conference at the regular full rate (not the student
rate) by the advance registration date (September 23)
for the paper to remain part of the ACM MM conference and
proceedings. If all of the paper's authors are
students, then a student registration suffices for that
paper.]
The
website for submitting the final version of the accepted
papers is now open. Please go to the relevant links below to

Overview of camera ready and copyright form
Authors of accepted full
papers/short papers/demos/videos/art exhibit/doctoral symposium for the ACM MM
2006 conference will receive an email from Lisa M. Tolles from Sheridan
Printing, the publisher that will produce the conference proceedings. The email
contains all the details for submitting the camera ready copy and copyright
form.
Formatting instructions and uploading camera ready copy
The camera ready copy of
each submission must strictly adhere to the Sheridan Printing Instructions for
the ACM MM 2006 Proceedings.
We kindly ask you to read
carefully through the
instructions from Sheridan and start preparing the camera ready copy as
early as possible to avoid any delays due to formatting problems, paper length,
or lacking a copyright form. For an appealing print of your contribution in the
conference proceedings please do NOT change the given paper style, e.g., by
increasing text width and height or reducing line spacing in order to get more
space for your paper.
The Sheridan web page also
contains information on the files and their required naming for the submission
as well as the URL where to upload the files of the final version.
If you have any questions
left regarding the preparation of the camera ready copy, please contact the
proceedings coordinator Lisa M. Tolles at Sheridan printing. For questions
regarding the shepherding process and further general questions, please contact
the proceedings chair Roger Zimmermann.
The ACM computing classification
Please note that each paper
must provide a classification of it's content and general terms according to the
ACM computing classification. If you are not familiar with this
classification please make sure that you read carefully through the guide "How
to classify works using the ACM's computing classification system" to select the
most suitable categories and general terms for your paper and add some
additional keywords to it. Do NOT omit classification, general terms or keywords
in your camera ready copy, e.g., in order to save space!
The shepherding process (for Full Papers only)
As was started in ACM 2003,
the inclusion of the reviewers' comments in the final version of the paper is
guided by a "Shepherd" - a member of the program committee - to help the authors
in the process of reflecting the reviewers' comments in the final version. The
shepherd will ensure that all review comments are addressed properly in the
final version. This process contributes to the high quality of the conference
and also honors the reviewers' effort in writing reviews. Your shepherd should
already be in touch with you; please negotiate a time schedule with your
shepherd.
The proceedings chair must
get a confirmation from the shepherds that all review comments are appropriately
considered in your final camera-ready version. Please do not hesitate to ask
your shepherd if you have any questions. In order to facilitate the task of the
shepherd, we ask you to establish a document that lists all review comments and
discusses how you have taken them into account in your final paper.
Email this document to the
proceedings chair Roger Zimmermann before August 1, 2006. Please include [ACM
MM06] in the subject of the e-mail. This information, acknowledged by your
shepherds as complete, is important for being included in the conference
proceedings.
Printed proceedings and ACM digital library
Printed conference
proceedings will be produced by Sheridan Printing; the proceedings will also be
entered in the ACM Digital Library.
