Papers describing timely research contributions in EdgeSP's areas of interest are solicited. Papers reporting on initial results as well as papers discussing mature research projects or case studies of deployed systems are sought out. Submissions describing big ideas that may have significant impact and could lead to interesting discussions at the workshop are encouraged.
Submitted papers must be neither previously published nor under review by another workshop, conference or journal. Only electronic submissions in PDF will be accepted. Submitted papers must be no longer than 6 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures and tables, but excluding references, and using 10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced) leading, two-column format, Times Roman, or a similar font, within a text block 7.14" wide x 9.22" deep.
