Each full paper for submission should be formatted using the EG publication style (zipped) proceedings templates. It must not be longer than twelve(12) pages in length, including references and figures.

Each short paper for submission should be formatted and submitted in the same way as a full paper, except that its length must not be longer than six(6) pages.

The presentation format will allow for ample discussion time. Only electronic submissions will be accepted through the Precision Conference https://precisionconference.com/~egsr

The authors of each accepted paper need to complete and return the EG Copyright Assignment Form.

Note: this year there is very little time between acceptance notification and the due date for camera ready copies of the paper. This is due to restrictions imposed by the publisher. We will therefore have to strictly enforce all deadlines.
