• The proceedings of COCOON'2003 will be published in the Springer-Verlag series Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Read carefully Springer's instructions on preparing the manuscript before you submit the final version, check LNCS's Authors Instructions for these guidelines.
• We request that you use the llncs.cls style file, which is available from LNCS and can be downloaded over here . Using other styles might delay the publication process. If you have some technical questions on Latex2e, try to ask an expert and we are also willing to help.
• One author of each accepted paper must sign the copyright form, try to download it from Springer's Copyright Form. Your signed copyright form must be sent to us, either by Fax or mail, on or before April 28, 2003.

   Phone: 406-994-4836
   
   If you send it by express mail/package, claim it as academic documents .
   The copyright form can also be sent by fax (+1-406-994-4376).
   
   Note. We must receive the camera-ready printout and the copyright form by April 28, 2003 at the latest. Please mind the mailing delays and post your submission early enough.
   
   Send your electronic files as e-mail attachments to the address cocoon03@cs.montana.edu.
   Recommendation: To avoid confusion, name all files in the following fashion: Use always 8 characters plus an extension (cocnNNNC.XXX). cocn is a fixed string. NNN is your submission number with possible leading zeros. To distinguish several files of the same type (e.g., EPS files) use characters a, b, c,... in the field C. XXX identifies the file type (tex, ps, etc.). For example, the files in a final submission could be named cocn023a.tex, cocn023a.dvi, cocn023a.ps, cocn023a.eps, cocn023b.eps, and cocn023c.eps. We would appreciate if you could compress the files with zip, tar, tar.gz, or tar.Z format. Use cocnNNN as the base name for the compressed file (e.g., cocn023.zip).
   
   Following these instructions not only makes the organizer's life easier, it is very possible that it will also make your own life easier (e.g., you will not be asked to re-send your files, etc). If you have any questions concerning the final submission, contact cocoon03@cs.montana.edu.
