\section{Introduction}

Papers for the $XII^{th}$ {\it Vienna Conference on 
Instrumentation} should be submitted as {\it Latex}
files. Please, do not worry if you have never used {\it Latex} before. 
Just download from our Website the file \texttt{VCI-paper-template.tex} 
and the file \texttt{elsarticle.cls}. You only have to edit the 
\texttt{VCI-paper-template.tex} file and insert your own {\it title, 
author names, affiliations (institutions)} and {\it text} instead 
of the sample text given here. Do not modify \texttt{elsarticle.cls}.

Please bear in mind that the formatting style has changed somewhat 
since the last {\it Vienna Conference on Instrumentation}. So, please do
not use old style files you might have kept! 

As {\it Latex}  uses normal text files, you may edit your paper with any 
text editor you like - even with {\it Microsoft Word} (you might, e.g., want
to use the {\it Word} spell checker). In that case, just 
be sure to save the text as text file (\texttt{.txt}), not as ``{\it Word}'' file 
(\texttt{.doc} or \texttt{.docx}), 
and then rename the extension to ``\texttt{.tex}'' before compiling it with 
{\it Latex}.

If you want to see what your manuscript looks like, type the command 
\texttt{latex VCI-paper-template} in the directory containing this 
file and the \texttt{elsarticle.cls} file, and you will get a file 
\texttt{VCI-paper-template.dvi} which on UNIX or Linux can be viewed 
by the command \texttt{xdvi VCI-paper-template.dvi} . 
With the command \texttt{dvips VCI-paper-template} you can produce a 
postscript file \texttt{VCI-paper-template.ps} which you can print out. 
Please be sure to also submit the modified 
\texttt{VCI-paper-template.tex} file (please change the filename to your surname)
as edited by you.


\section{For newcomers to Latex}

As you see in this example, plain text can be entered just as in any 
word processor. Formulae are put inside ``dollar'' signs (\$), Greek 
letters are produced by using a backslash (\verb+\+) followed by the 
name of the Greek letter, and subscripts and superscripts are 
produced by the underscore (\verb+_+) and caret (\verb+^+) characters, 
respectively. Here is an example: $K_{long} \rightarrow \pi^0 e^+ e^-$. 
{\bf Boldface type} and {\it italic type} is produced as shown here. 
Comments follow a $\%$~(percent) sign % this is a comment
% this is another comment
until the end of the current line.
If you need anything more sophisticated, please consult a {\it Latex}
manual, ask your local {\it Latex} guru, or contact us at {\texttt{proceedings@vci2010.at} .

\section{Formatting}

As we are using the publisher's ``style file" and control commands (all the commands in
this {\it Latex} file preceded by a backslash ``\verb+\+'') you automatically get more or less the formatting
your paper will have in the printed journal. However, the publisher will re-process the file
and might adjust the layout and the size of figures and tables.

\subsection{Lenght of paper}

The length of the paper is 4 pages for all contributed papers (talks and posters
that have been accepted for publication in NIM A), and 10 pages for invited talks 
(figures included). 

\subsection{Figures}

The following example shows you how to include figures. {\it Latex} will put your figure where it considers it suitable. The publisher may subsequently still change the layout, so don't worry too much about how to position your figure. If you want to refer to a figure in the text, you should do this using its label (see Fig.~\ref{fig:VCIposter}).

\begin{figure}[hbt]

\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth,keepaspectratio]{VCIposter.pdf}

\label{fig:VCIposter}
\end{figure}

\section{Citing references}

In the text, cite publications as \cite{MyQuote1}, \cite{MyQuote2} and so on. 
The references have to be collected in the bibliography section which you find at the
end of this template. 

\section{More information}

For more information or if you need more special features of {\it Latex}, please go to the publisher's web page at 
{\small http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authorsview.authors/elsarticle}.
The template file given here has been adapted from the file 
\texttt{elsarticle-template-num.tex} you can download from that page.

\section{Support}

If you encounter any problems, please do not hesitate to contact us by email
({\texttt{proceedings@vci2010.at}) or during the Conference at the Paper Submission desk.
