Congratulations on your accepted paper at EDBT 2011!

- You will be required to submit your paper in PDF format, along with some supplementary information, including an ASCII version of the abstract of your paper. To ensure your abstract is reproduced properly, do not use LaTeX or other markup in your abstract.

Formatting guidelines
General guidelines
- Papers must be submitted in PDF format and according to the ACM proceedings format.
- All submissions must use the US Letter format (8.5 × 11 inches).
- The page limits are as follows:
- Research papers should be at most 12 pages in length;
- Industrial papers should be at most 6 pages in length;
- Demonstrations should be at most 4 pages in length.
- It is not permissible under any circumstance to change the template's font size, margins, intercolumn spacing, or line spacing. Templates are available in Word, WordPerfect, and LaTeX (versions 2.09 and 2e).
- For the LaTeX formats, you may use either the standard style or the SIG-alternate style.
- Make sure that your paper does not contain page numbers. Page numbers will be automatically inserted by our publisher, ACM.
- Be sure that all fonts used in your paper are embedded in the submitted PDF file. Use Type 1 fonts (scalable), not Type 3 (bitmapped).
- We suggest representing your figures as vector graphics. They allow for arbitrary scaling and print out best. If you have to use bitmap formats, please prefer lossless data formats (e.g., PNG, TIFF) over lossy compression formats. JPEG graphics in particular tend to look poorly and should be avoided.
- If you include colored figures in your paper, please be aware that it will often be printed on black&white printers and, hence, should be comprehensible also without color information. Also note that thin lines or gray shadings may appear differently on your reader's printers.
