In a previous year I think I suggested 5K. That's a workable size -- enough to say something but not too long to go overboard. Consider a range of +/- 1K around the 5. /Caroline ---- Original message ----

M-H,

Not a dumb question. There is no recommendation on the site, as far as I know. I have referred others who asked to Mia, the program chair. My sense is that a paper of 20-30pp is about right, but I haven't got any official word on that.

Since the "proceedings" are electronic page length isn't the issue that it might have been in the past.

I've been round and round the AOIR8.0 site and I can't find a guide to the length of a completed conference paper. Abstract 750 wds, but no information on full submission.

I may have missed something... Can anyone enlighten me?

M-H
