FINAL MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
CASE STUDIES IN BAYESIAN STATISTICS
WORKSHOP 6 - 2001


After your manuscript has been accepted for inclusion in the Springer Verlag series of Case Studies in Bayesian Statistics, it should be submitted in camera-ready form.

Note: For the initial round of refereeing, your paper does not have to be in Springer-Verlag style.

In order to compile and publish this volume as soon as possible after the workshop, Springer-Verlag has given us access to a LaTeX style file to use in formatting your manuscript.

anonymous ftp from ftp.springer-ny.com/pub/tex
(login as anonymous, use your email address as password)
cd to latex2e and get svcon2e.sty, README and svlatex.tex
or
You can download them from here - svcon2e.sty, README and svlatex.tex.

The files called README (a general information file) and svlatex.tex (a sample svcon.sty document), should be very helpful to you in setting up your paper.

I have also prepared a sample document, which you may use as template for your paper. Select either Invited, Contributed or Discussant template.

Manuscripts should be emailed to Heidi Sestrich (at the address below). Please send the latex file as well as any included .ps files, and any additional .sty files you have used to run your paper. It is also helpful if you send a hard-copy via regular mail.
