Papers
Papers should describe original and unpublished work. Authors should  
submit a manuscript electronically as a PDF file. The paper should  
not exceed 8 pages single spaced in length including images, figures,  
tables and references.

Paper submissions must be anonymised to facilitate blind review.  
Authors are encouraged to take care throughout the entire document to  
minimise references that may reveal the identity of the authors or  
their institutions.

The paper should only include the title of the paper. Authors' names,  
affiliations, postal addresses, e-mail addresses and the contact  
person for the paper will be submitted separately through the online  
submission system along with the PDF version of the paper.

Short Papers/Sketches
Short papers/sketches are intended to allow authors to present work  
which is perhaps more applied, or in a less finalised state, in order  
to expose ideas and generate discussion and debate with other  
delegates. They should be no more than 4 pages long.

Short papers will also be published in the conference proceedings but  
will be identified as shorter contributions.

Paper Format
The format of papers and short papers should conform to the style for  
"Conferences sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH" described at http:// 
www.siggraph.org/publications/instructions/

Use the information and templates in the section titled "Conferences  
sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH".

Student Prize
A prize will be awarded for the best student paper presented at  
GRAPHITE 2007. Please indicate that you are a student when submitting  
your paper.
