Instructions for Submission of Papers to the Proceedings of the
International Conference on Algebras, Modules and Rings

Papers should be submitted in electronic form to proc.lisboa03@cii.fc.ul.pt, preferably in LaT_EX form. Please send the source along with a dvi or pdf file. Submissions will be automatically forwarded to the Editors. You can indicate the editor of your choice.

LaT_EX

• In case you use LaT_EX, you are allowed to use any of the standard packages. In particular, the preferred document class is amsart. A template for the article structure is available.
• You can use every kind of personal commands, but please use them the standard LaT_EX way, i.e., with \newcommand and \newenvironment. Do not use \def, as it is easy to redefine with it very important LaT_EX commands.
• To ensure uniform appearance to the volume, please use emphasis in italics rather than boldface, when indicating defined terms, i.e., use \emph{...}.
• If you are using amsart, give separate entries for all authors, as shown in the template; if you use article, use the standard LaT_EX way of specifying them.
• Do not try to correct Overfull hboxes, as the line width will probably change in the final version. On the other hand avoid in-line long formulas. Remember that paragraphs are ended with a blank line and not with \\ commands. Moreover, use \[...\] constructs rather than $$...$$.
• If you have to draw commutative diagrams, the preferred way of setting them is through the Xy-pic package. If you don't know about it, use your favorite package.
• In case you need to insert graphic material, please refer to the specific instructions.
• Bibliographic entries are best treated with BibT_EX; in this case you should supply the bib file along with the others. However, normal bibliography at the end of the paper is accepted. For uniformity, numerical citations are preferred, using the standard \cite command.

Other electronic formats

• If you are not able to use LaT_EX, you can also send the paper in Plain T_EX or AMS-T_EX; note that other formats, like ConT_EXt, are not accepted.
• In case you want to use MicroSoft Word^® or Sun StarOffice^®, you should send the source in the same way as for the T_EX submissions by e-mail, but you are also required to send also a hard copy of the paper with the source on diskette to the Copy Editor: Enrico Gregorio, Dipartimento di Informatica, Università di Verona, Strada le Grazie 15, I-37134 Verona (Italy)

No other kind of word processor can be supported.

For any T_EXnical question, feel free to write to Enrico Gregorio
