The Symposium will have both stand-up presentations of contributed papers and poster presentations.

All contributed papers will be published by Begell House, Inc., in a proceedings volume and will be available in the form of CD-ROM to the participants at the registration. A set of keynotes and contributed papers will be selected for post conference publication in a special issue of the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer.

The Symposium will also include poster sessions to allow the researchers to discuss their most recent work in a relaxed atmosphere. The abstracts of these papers (maximum 3 pages) will be included in the Book of  Abstracts. Full papers are not required for the posters.

All authors are expected to send their manuscripts (or abstracts for the poster presentations) in camera-ready format (in pdf or as a MS-Word document) electronically. The guidelines for preparing camera-ready manuscripts is available here in Word format. (For PDF version please click here ). If you prefer using LaTex for preparing the manuscripts you may use the LaTex template provided here .

For poster preparation, please see the Suggestions For Preparing Posters page.  

All authors should fill, sign and send the Begell House copyright release form along with the manuscript. The copyright form can be downloaded here.
