SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Papers can convey
work-in-progress that is not completely mature but shows promise.
Proceedings will be available in printed form and on IEEExplore.
Papers must be written in
English. Only electronic submissions will be accepted.
Papers not meeting the guidelines will be returned to
the authors.
Format and Length
- Submissions must be no longer
than six (6) pages in double-column format with
standard margins and at least a 10 point font ---
larger if possible. This length includes everything:
figures, tables, references, appendices and so forth.
Longer submissions will not be reviewed.
- Provide an abstract of fewer
than 200 words.
- Number the pages.
- The paper must be submitted
in PDF or
Postscript format. We
must be able to display and print your submission
exactly as we receive it and using only standard tools
and postscript printers, so we strongly suggest that
you use only standard fonts.
- Make sure that the paper
prints well on black-and-white printers, not color
printers. This is especially true for plots and graphs
in the paper.
- Make sure that the output has
been formatted for printing on LETTER (8.5" by 11")
size paper.
Simplified Requirements

is a two-page document
that describes the essential steps in distilling PDFs.

Dual Submissions
Once submitted to NPSec, a paper
cannot be submitted to another workshop, conference or
journal until the NPSec acceptance decision is known. To
do so is to risk wasting one of our community's scarcest
resources: reviewer effort. Similarly, a paper that is
under consideration elsewhere, including a workshop or
journal, cannot simultaneously be submitted to NPSec.
Electronic Submission
Submit a paper to NPSec 2005.
Important
Note: Registration Policy
The organizers of NPSec have
instituted the following policy:
"At least one of the authors of
each paper presented at the conference must be
registered in a non-student category."
