Paper Submission - AusWeb96
A quick overview
This document is to assist those who are preparing full papers for AusWeb96.
There is information here on:
Once Your Paper is Refereed and Accepted
This gets rather complicated, so we'll now proceed to bore you to death
with all the details of how we want (and need) when you submit your paper.
If you are in any doubt at all about submission of your paper please email
the editor-in-chief at aw96edit@scu.edu.au.
In this section we cover:
Your files on our server
Each paper will be given its own directory on the SCU Web server within
the directory stucture for the appropriate
theme. Within the directory there will be two or three HTML documents.
Required
Optional
The abstract (index.html) is designed to allow potential readers
an opportunity to read an overview of the paper with minimal download times.
A reasonable number of words have been allowed in the abstract.
The full paper (paper.html) will be printed in the conference
proceedings which will be available at the conference and will also be reproduced
on the AusWeb96 CD-ROM which will be published approximately one month after
the conference. Paper submission requirements are designed to allow simultaneous
production on the Web, on CD-ROM and in print.
The conference presentation (present.html) is designed to provide
an overview of the paper that the presenter of the paper can use for the
session at AusWeb96. It is designed to replace PowerPoint type presentations.
This is an optional item - although we strongly recommend you think about
preparing one. The final element is a pointer to what we are calling the
"interactive" presentation which might have all of the elements
we do not allow including as many Netscape extensions, as many image maps
and as many interactive elements as you wish. The "interactive"
presentation will reside on your server. In order for the publication of
proceedings to be as up to date as possible, the final submission date has
been set only one month before the conference date and it would be appreciated
if the style and referencing rules were followed to allow for rapid processing.
Using Relative and Absolute References
in your paper
Given simultaneous CD-ROM production it is important to make relative
references to any materials (such as the abstract) which will be packaged
up with the paper and absolute references to any other
resources (such as your interactive presentation).
The directory structure is shown below.
So if your paper is paper 01 in the Business theme, it will be placed as
shown:
AusWeb96 Home Directory
|
----------------------------------
| | | |
Business Technical Education Cultural
|
Paper01
HTML Style
The IETF DTD HTML 2.0 plus tables from the HTML 3.0 draft is the standard
for paper submission. There is to be no use of Netscape
or Microsoft extensions to these standards, with one exception and one exception
only - The headings to all articles are to be Heading 1, and the non-standard
ALIGN=CENTER tage is to be used.
Referencing Techniques
As with AusWeb95papers
there will be a two part referencing system - one for print references,
one for hyper-references.
References to print material should be in the form set out in the Australian
Style Guide.
Hypertext references should include a reference within the hypertext anchor
of the style [HREFn]. An anchor might be shown as <A> HREF="http://www.foo.bar/index.html"
> The foo.bar home page [HREF1] </A> At the conclusion of the
article please list all hypertext references in full, using a definition
list. You may add a description of the particular resource. For example:
<DL>
<DT> HREF1
<DD> http://www.foo.bar/index.html This is the home for the full suite
of bar mix recipes
</DL>
Copyright
Please include the following copyright statement at the conclusion of the
article. The copyright statement has been designed to provide reasonable
access to the papers and to allow SCU to publish the proceedings in paper
and on CD-ROM.

Uploading the completed paper
HTML documents should be in plain text, graphics in GIF or JPEG format and
movies in MPEG or QuickTime format.
Documents should be named as follows:

- Presentation
- present.html
- Graphics files
- image01.gif through imageNN.gif (or .jpg)
- Sound files
- sound01.au through soundNN.au
- Movie files
- movie01.mpg through movieNN.mpg (or .mov)
- Interactive presentation
- As it sits on your server and you are going to be linking with an
absolute rather than a relative reference, go right ahead and name it what
you wish.
An FTP drop box will be provided. Email "aw96edit@scu.edu.au"
for instructions.
All papers and associated materials can also be emailed in a ZIP file, using
UUencode or BinHex encoding techniques to the editor-in-chief at aw96edit@scu.edu.au
.

as a skeleton. It revolves around a mythical school (Ballina Lighthouse
School) and a mythical university (Ballina University).

<h2>Introduction</h2>
This article describes the introduction of the WorldWideWeb to the students of
Ballina Lighthouse State School.
<h2>Background</h2>
Ballina Lighthouse State School is a K6 school which primarily services the
children of the Ballina lighthouse keepers and staff at the Ballina Beach
Resort. The school was first connected to the Internet in 1992 with access
arranged through Ballina University. In 1994 it was decided to install a
WorldWideWeb server.
<h2>The Ballina Beach State School WWW Server "LightSource"</h2>
The <a href="http://www.bu.edu.au/bbss/index.html">LightSource [HREF 2]</a>
was commissioned on the Ballina University server in January 1994 in time for
the 1994 school year. The students used a regular personal computer and high
speed modem to upload html images to the Ballina University computers. The
designated computer had appropriate facilities to display graphical and
sound images.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
The production of multimedia is a difficult but challenging environment to work
in (Makedon et al 1994), not the least with students in the K6 environment. We
found that the greatest challenge was, however, not with the students but in the
technical sense.
