their submission for full-length manuscript(s) for two different applications: The first
application (I) will serve for the Conference Book Proceedings. The second application
(II) is for inclusion in a CD-ROM library which IMAPS is creating that will include all

tables in the text should be numerically sequential (e.g. Table 1, Table 2, Figure 1,
Figure 2, Equation (1), Equation (2), etc.)
- References appear as a separate section at the end of the paper. In the text, the
reference information is indicated by a numeral in a square bracket (e.g. [1]). Examples
of correct references are included in the Manuscript
Preparation Guidelines.

approved and cleared for release by the company/institution/foundation prior to its
submission. The Agreement for Transfer of Copyright is for all further IMAPS publication
rights to the author's paper, including publication in the Symposium Proceedings, the
CD-ROM library, and if selected, The International Journal of Microcircuits and Electronic
Packaging.
B. Procedure for Storage on CD-ROM
The electronic version of your paper may be provided on a 3.5" disk (Zip or
magnetoptic) or by E-mail to: TECHPROGRAMS@imaps.org. Preferred formats are
MSWord, WordPerfect and WordPro. MAC users must save their document as IBM format on a
high-density diskette.
- Figures should be saved in GIF format if possible, otherwise authors may use JPEG, PCX,
WMF, TIFF, BMP, EPS, DRW, or PICT.
- Hard copies of figures should be included for scanning purposes.
- Hard copies of Tables should also be included, each on a separate piece of paper, for
scanning purposes.
- Original drawings should be on 8½x11" drawing vellum or board or, printed with a
high resolution laser printer.
