ACM Paper Templates

The official ACM standard format for conferences is given at ACM's web site, and templates exist in several places (SIGMOD, ACM latex, alternate latex).

Unfortunately, Sensys requires a 10 point format instead of the ACM standard 9 point format. SIGCOMM requires a 10 point format for submission and then expects authors to change to the 9 point format for publication!

Consequently I have modified one of the several 9 point ACM styles to support 10 point as an option. Shifting between the styles is just a [9pt] or [10pt] option to \documentclass.

Download:

• sigplan-proc-varsize.cls (just the style file, read the comments for documentation)
• sigplan-proc-varsize-package.tar.gz (includes sample documents in both sizes)

Changes:

• 17-Mar-06: released
• 9-Aug-06: example files updated to include categroy/terms/keywords.
• 11-Aug-06: added example file (sample-10pt-authorcopyright) demonstrating how to change the copyright blurb.
