     TOOLS TRACK

     Authors are encouraged to submit papers describing tools suitable
     for on-line demonstration. The tools papers will undergo a regular
     review process and will be published in the conference proceedings
     in a dedicated tools section. Separate sessions are planned where
     these tools will be demonstrated on-line. Projection systems
     capable for projecting from laptop screens and videotapes will be
     available. The authors are required to bring any additional
     equipment necessary for demonstration.Questions regarding tools
     track should be directed to the tools co-chairs.

     PAPER SUBMISSION INFORMATION
