All authors are kindly asked to follow the LNBIP Author formatting guidelines from Springer for the preparation of their manuscripts. The Author Guidelines document summarizes how a proceedings paper should be structured, how elements (headings, figures, references) should be formatted using predefined styles, etc. It also gives some insight on how a paper will be typeset at Springer.
Production of the camera-ready paper will be much smoother if authors use the available MS Word template, which incorporates all the recommended formatting guidelines. Template supporting MS-Word 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2019. Please download the Instructions for installing and using the author template, including splnproc1703.docm（Microsoft formate）and splnproc1703_mac.docm（Mac formate）. If your browser (e.g., Chrome ) shows a download risk, please ignore it, this is Springer’s official document.
Any submission that does not use this template or deviates from the formatting requirements will be rejected without review. After formatting your full paper according to the Springer guidelines and before its submission (through the CMS) you are kindly asked to carry out a number of checks.
All submissions must be transformed into PDF format using Adobe Acrobat or other software before submission. Files submitted in other formats or that do not use the submission template will not be considered for review.
Authors enter the submission title, abstract, keywords, and author information in the menus prompted by Easychair.
