================ 
= Submission = 
================ 
Submissions to JIST 2011 should describe original, significant research 
on the semantic technologies. Submissions to JIST 2011 are expected 
to present their claimed contribution, with clear evidence to support 
their claims. All submissions will be critically reviewed by at least three 
members of the program committee. To assess submissions, reviewers 
will judge their relevance to semantic technologies, their originality, the 
technical soundness of their proposed approach and the readability of 
the submission. Submissions must be in PDF format, using the style of the 
Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). 
Submissions must be no longer than 12 pages. Submissions that exceed 
this limit may be rejected without review. JIST 2011 will not accept submissions 
that are under review for or have already been published in or accepted for 
publication in a journal or another conference. 

All submissions be submitted via EasyChair at 
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jist2011 

Accepted papers will be distributed to conference attendees and also 
published by Springer (NEED CONFIRMATION) in the printed conference 
proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper must register 
for the conference and present the paper there.
