  41. <p>Thank you for your co-operation in the preparation of the PARMA-DITAM 2014 Workshop proceedings. The workshop proceedings will be published in the <strong>ACM series</strong> and will also become available through <strong>ACM Digital Library</strong>. Therefore, all submissions <strong><u>MUST</u></strong> adhere to the ACM specification for compatibility.</p>

  44. <p><!--When filling in the submission information, please select the topics that best describe the content of your paper. The system will automatically assign your paper to one of the two conference Tracks based on the topics you have chosen.<br>-->
  45. <br>
  46. In the following, you can find the information on how to properly format your manuscript.</p>
  47. <h4>Paper Formatting Guidelines</h4>
  48. <p>Papers submitted to PARMA-DITAM 2014 must use the <strong>two-column ACM conference proceedings format</strong>, and must be submitted as a <strong>package </strong>(zip, rar, etc.) containing the source files (LaTex or Microsoft Word) and the <strong>PDF</strong> version of your paper labeled as follow: PARMA-DITAM-2014_"Lead Author" (for example PARMA-DITAM-2014_John_Smith). A template for Microsoft Word and LaTeX can be downloaded <strong><a href="http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates" target="new">HERE</a></strong>. Use <strong><u>OPTION 2: LaTeX2e - Tighter Alternate style</u></strong>.You can download an example of paper<a href="http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/sig-alternate.pdf"> here</a>.The length of the long papers is limited to <strong>6 pages</strong>, while the length of the short papers is limited to <strong>4 pages</strong>. After completing the copyrights management form, authors will be emailed the correct rights management text and bibliographic strip to place within their paper (at the bottom of the first page, left column; an example is available <a href="http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/sig-alternate.pdf">here</a>).</p>
  49. <p><b>1) Copyright:</b></p>
  50. <p>Along with the final version of the paper, each author
  51. has to submit a signed version of the copyright form. The authors will be contacted individually by ACM. ACM has an automated copyright form collection system for ACM published proceedings. As rights management emails are sent from an automated system, there is a chance that emails sent will wind up in SPAM folders. Please make sure to set email SPAM settings to allow emails from "rightsreview@acm.org"</p>
  52. <p>
  53. <b>2)</b> <b>Mandatory Sections:</b>

If this happens, either tighten the previous column or force a line feed. Section and Sub-section headings should remain with at least two lines of body text when near the end of a page or column. <b>Do not modify the margins of the paper to gain space. If the margins are modified, the paper will be returned to the author.</b>
