Final manuscripts must conform to the stylesheet of the publisher, which will be provided in due course. For the present, please follow the general formatting instructions:

Submitted papers should

• be anonymous (The line with author's name(s) in the paper should only contain a placeholder "Author's name, Affiliation".);
• be written in English (All examples must be glossed and translated into English. If you are not a native speaker of English, please have your text checked by a native speaker before handing them in. The editors of the volume will claim the right for themselves to reject papers, if they are too many mistakes.);
• not exceed 15 pages, including tables, figures and references;
• use one-column format, Times New Roman, 12pt, single-spacing;
• use the U.S. Library of Congress (LOC) scheme for the transcription of Cyrillic characters into Latin characters.

Each submission will be anonymously reviewed by independent reviewers. After the external reviewing procedure, the final selection of papers for the volume will be made. The authors of accepted papers will be given another few weeks for the revision and final submission.

Further details concerning the publication of the conference volume will be provided as soon as they become available.

We are looking forward to receiving your submissions!
