Alternativley, you may prepare your submission by using SPRINGER's llncs.cls style file, again within 10 pages.

You may use appendices to include long but major proofs, if 10 pages do not suffice. If you submit hardcopies, double-sided printing is encouraged. (Do not mix up this page limit with the page limit for the final version.)
