Please especially make sure to adhere to the following guidelines provided to us by LIPIcs.

http://drops.dagstuhl.de/styles/lipics-v2018/lipics-v2018-authors/lipics-v2018-sample-article.tex
as starting point for your paper.
- Check that all meta data is available, i.e., full author names (first names!), affiliations mentioning institution+city+country, ACM classification(s), keywords and an abstracts. The abstract should preferably come with no LaTeX commands (or only very simple LaTeX commands) and literature references should also be avoided, at least for the electronic meta data submitted in (3).
- Typesetting: Check that all graphics and bibtex files are available. It is mandatory that there is exactly one LaTeX-file per article (and no include-files for sections/subsection) and one BibTeX-file.

For detailed typesetting instructions, please visit

http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/

If these rules are not taken into account by the authors, this may result in a delay of publishing the volume.


(3) Instructions for uploading of the meta data, sources and author agreement
============================================================================

To upload the meta data, the archive of your sources and the signed author agreement, please use the Dagstuhl submission system:

http://drops.dagstuhl.de/extern/lipics/vol123-isaac2018/openconf.php

For uploading of the articles of the proceedings, please use "Submit a Paper".
* Please skip the field "FinalOrderID".
* Please submit complete first and last names of the authors. In case of special characters (e.g. diacritics), please use DBLP (http://www.dblp.org) to identify a suitable alternative.
* For the abstract, no LaTeX commands are allowed. LaTeX-style ASCII, e.g. x_i or 2^n, can be used. The abstract should not contain \cite commands, but give an appropriate acronym version of the bibliographic reference, e.g. [Knuth, Commun. ACM, 1974]. If you cut and paste the abstract from the LaTeX source, please remove commented lines and be aware of further macros used and references (e.g. literature). This task should be done very accurately!
* You need to provide a password. This can be chosen randomly. Please add it to your records in case of future modifications.

You will receive an internal ID for your paper after the submission. Please remember this ID, as you need this ID along with the entered password to modify the meta data or re-upload the PDF, the archive of sources or the author agreement.
