- Cover Sheet
- One to two page Abstract/Description
- Picture / Poster / Screen dump - what you consider useful
Please see below for a description of accepted formats and required contents.

Submission
You may submit your proposal according to one of the following procedures:
- By sending email to 'www95_poster@igd.fhg.de'
Create a tar file containing the cover sheet, the text file (HTML)
and the graphics files (GIF or Encapsulated PostScript), compress it with Unix
compress (only) and uuencode it.
- By anonymous ftp
Create a tar file containing the text file (HTML)
and the graphics files (GIF or Encapsulated PostScript), compress it with Unix
compress (only) and ftp it to 'ftp.igd.fhg.de',
into the directory 'incoming/www95'.
Use 'anonymous' as login and your email address as password.
After ftp'ing the tar file, email the cover sheet to

Cover Sheet
A cover sheet must accompany every submission. It shall contain:
- The title
- Type of presentation: poster or demonstration (with poster)
- Assignment to conference topics (select topics only out of the list). If you list more than one,
the one listed first will be taken as the primary one. If nothing applies please use OTHER and an additional keyword.
- Name and postal address, phone, fax, email and http address of the author(s). In case of co-authors the first listed will be used as the contact address for future communication. (Note: The order of the authors may be different in the paper, see below)
- List of keywords (as on title page)
- Name of tar-file, if submitted by ftp (see above)
- Please include the following statement:
The author(s) agree to transfer Copyright to the Conference Organizer in case of acceptance by
the International Programme Committee. The author ensures that this is an original paper, not
published anywhere else and not submitted for publication to any other conference. The authors
ensure that they have the copyright at the date of submission.
The cover sheet is required for the organizational process only. It should be ASCII only, no formatting other than
numbering and paragraphs. This page will not be published.
Please send this page via email to 'www95_poster@igd.fhg.de'
Abstract / Description and Pictures
Posters/Demonstrations intended for publication on the Conference Server and in the Poster-Proceedings shall be submitted in the following formats:
- syntactically correct HTML 2.0
(for conference server and for creation of printed proceedings) AND
- Postscript (as reference version for positioning of pictures, tables and figures)
To make the Proceedings more attractive, it is important that submitted papers follow the Guidelines as closely
as possible. The Editors cannot retype contributions for publication. However, minor deviations from the
guidelines may be accepted from authors who lack the necessary resources.
Note: Many submissions to the First and Second International WWW Conference had been corrupted, so that the electronic version could not be accessed.
Because of this, the text of each paper shall be one HTML-file only, not many as produced by some converters
such as latex2html.
