Submissions

IPAW'06 encourages the submission of theoretical, experimental, methodological, and applications papers related to the issue of provenance and annotation. Papers should be no longer than 8 pages (lncs format). Submissions will be peer reviewed and selected for presentation at the workshop; papers will be evaluated on the basis of the quality of their technical contribution, originality, soundness, significance, presentation, understanding of the state of the art, and overall quality.

Papers have to be submitted electronically using the Conference Management Toolkit (CMT) at the IPAW06 Submission page.

30 January 2006: the submission system went live.
