To: Authors of 1996 IEEE Workshop on VLSI SP From: K. Konstantinides Re: Author's Guide on Workshop Proceedings Date: May 1, 1996 All presentation, poster, and invited papers of the 1996 IEEE Workshop on VLSI Signal Processing will be included in the Proceedings to be published by IEEE as a hard cover regular size book. In order to set the highest standard for this book, we urge you to take great care in the technical and editorial preparation of you manuscript. Please include some introductory materials to make your paper as understandable as possible to a broad audience. In order to present a uniform and consistent format for the book, detailed instructions are given in the Author's Guide as well as (one author and two authors) samples of a manuscript. For those planning to use Latex, a style file and a source file used to generate the sample manuscript is included. The book will be printed (with no reduction) directly from your submitted manuscript prepared on any normal good bond paper. Due to a rather tight publication schedule, please have your camera-ready manuscript arrive by July 12, 1996 at the office of: Ms. Ann Burgmeyer, 1996 VLSI Signal Processing IX IEEE Publishing 445 Hoes Lane Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA Please note, this deadline date is quite firm. Papers arriving after that date may not be able to be included in the book. Ms. Burgmeyer's telephone no. is 908-562-3890 , fax no. is 908-981-8062, and e-mail is a.burgmeyer@ieee.org. If you want an acknowledgment of the receipt of your manuscript, please include a stamped and addressed postcard or envelope with your submission. Do not forget to submit a SIGNED IEEE copyright form together with your manuscript. You can photocopy the IEEE copyright form from any of IEEE's Transactions or use the version we have in our web site ( http://www.hpl.hp.com/imaging/vlsi96/).
