Authors must sent one hard copy of their contribution to one of the co-editors of the Proceedings:

• Prof. J.E. MARTINEZ-LEGAZ     JuanEnrique.Martinez@uab.es

• Prof. J.-P. PENOT     jean-paul.penot@univ-pau.fr

• A class file by Springer-Verlag (publisher of Conference Proceedings) along with a sample *.tex file is available to assist authors in preparing their manuscript. This option is highly recommended because in this way authors will be viewing the final output of their contribution which will appear in print. You can download everything you need in order to use Springer-Verlag class file by clicking here.
• A *.tex file written in standard LaTeX i.e. a file which compiles smoothly in a standard LaTeX2e installation – not earlier than 1994 – (eg. EmTeX, MiKTeX, TeteX) is also acceptable. Authors taking this option should not use definitions and macros not included in the standard LaTeX2e distribution, unless they are fully defined in the preample. In all cases, the number of user defined macros should be reduced to a minimum.
• The third alternative concerns authors who are using a commercial TeX implementation (such as Scientific Workplace or VTeX). We would like to remind you that commercial TeX implementations tend to include non-standard macros and styles into the LaTeX file, which then becomes unusable by the editors. Since it is absolutely necessary to use only macros and styles that are included in the current LaTeX distribution, we recommend to establish communication with us (e-mail to Prof. G. Tsapogas, gtsap@aegean.gr) before starting preparation of manuscript. This particularly applies to authors who are not very familiar with LaTeX code and use a commercial TeX interface in order to "see" the mathematical expressions (on their screen) as they type them.
