The ECCRUS Online Electronic Conference
Submitting Abstracts:
In order to register as a contributing author (i.e., submit your
abstract), you will need to have read the instructions to authors page and have
things ready. You should also have the following prepared:
- Title of your paper
- Number of authors on the paper
(Each paper is required to have a minimum of two authors:
an undergraduate student and a research mentor.)
- Email addresses for all authors
- Institution address
(Each author is allow to have a separate address.)
- Subcategory of the research, e.g., organic, physical, etc.
- A prepared abstract
- A computer connected to internet with the ability to save and/or
print files
(You might find it useful to have both a web
browser and a word processor running concurrently with your paper
information loaded in the word processor. This will allow you to copy and
paste the information directly in the form page in step
2.)
Now you are ready to register as a contributing author for the conference.
Since this conference is designed to be automated, you need to follow the
registration directions closely. This will help ensure the smooth
facilitation of the conference and help to accurately present your research.
The process is broken down into three steps:
- Enter the number of authors and addresses for the paper (form below)
- Enter all of the abstract/registration information in the appropriate
spots. Verify the information to be correct and submit the information.
- Print and/or save the information returned. It will be useful to
save the information both as text and as source. This is useful because
the form will generate an html template for your use in preparing your
paper in html. Also, it will contain information for naming the files
for your paper.
After registering your abstract, you can prepare your paper in html and
ftp the files to our ftp server. The
guide to paper preparation and
paper submission pages contain more information to help in these
areas.
