GUIDELINES FOR AUTHORS Please read carefully and adhere strictly to the GUIDELINES before uploading your submission! Papers NOT adhering to guidelines will be deleted from the system. The EMAC 2014 conference invites electronic submissions of papers, which should be in PDF format no later than December 3, 2013. Authors may submit more than one paper, but only one can be accepted with you as first author. This EMAC policy implies that an author can submit and present only one paper as a first author.

Please make sure to mention your co-authors names on submission. No changes can be made after the submission deadline.
