SUBMISSION PROCEDURES Prospective authors are invited to propose papers for presentation in any of the technical areas listed above. To submit a proposal, prepare a paper summary following the instructions that can be found in the conference web site. The summary submission must be made electronically using the submission forms provided in the conference web site: http://icip01.ics.forth.gr Each selected paper (four-page limit) will be published in the Proceedings of ICIP-2001, using high-quality paper for good image reproduction. Presentations will be assigned to a lecture or poster session by the technical committee. Style files in LaTeX will be provided for the convenience of the authors. Please consult the web site of the conference for further information.
