\begin{abstract}
A refereed selection of papers of the 11th Conference of the 
Applied Stochastic Models and Data Analysis (ASMDA 2005) will 
be published as a Proceedings volume. In these guidelines we 
describe the format instructions and the submission procedure 
both to be followed seriously.  The text of these guidelines 
is written in the prescribed format and can be used as a specimen.

\section{The format of the text}

Please use the style file {\tt asmda2005.cls}. This file takes care of
all the formatting. You can download this style file, together with a
sample file {\tt article-asmda2005.tex} at the ASMDA 2005 conference
web site:
\begin{center}
{\tt http://asmda2005.enst-bretagne.fr/}
\end{center}

Please use the {\tt asmda2005.cls} style file and standard fonts. Use
other style files only if it is absolutely necessary in order to
typeset your text.

\end{center}


\section{Heading, abstract, keywords, and sections}

For the heading, specify the following items: 
\begin{itemize}
\item \verb@\title*@ to specify the title of your manuscript,
\item \verb@\toctitle@ to specify the title to be used in the table 
 of contents,
\item \verb@\titlerunning@ to specify the title in the running head,
\item \verb@\author@ specifies the authors. Authors are separated by
 the \verb@\and@ command. Use the \verb@\inst@ command to define
 reference marks to your affiliations if needed.
\item \verb@\index@ to allow each of the authors to appear in the author index.
\item \verb@\authorrunning@ to specify the author name(s) in the running head.
 If there are more than two authors, please abbreviate the author list
 (e.g., Vaillant et al.) for the running head.
\item \verb@\institute@ command lets you specify the your affiliation and
 your address. Separate two or more different affiliations by the
 \verb@\and@ command. 
\end{itemize}

An abstract (6--9 lines) is to be included after the heading using the 
commands \verb@\begin{abstract} ...  \end{abstract}@.  Specify up to 5
keywords using the \verb@\keyword@ command, once for each keyword.

\begin{sloppypar}
Please use only the \LaTeX\ sectioning commands \verb@\section@ and 
\verb@\subsection@.  Do not use a deeper hierarchy.  Considering the 
length of the manuscript, we recommend only using the \verb@\section@  
command.  Only capitalize the first word of the (sub)section title. 
\end{sloppypar}


\section{Length of the paper, figures, tables, and equations}

The manuscripts should be no longer than {\bf 8 pages} using the 
{\tt asmda2005.cls} style file.

Each figure or table must have a caption, briefly explaining this
figure or table, e.g., ``Fig. 3. Plot of ...  .'' or ``Table 1. Data
of ...  .'' (arabic numbering).  Use the \verb@\ref@ command when
refering to a figure or a table in the text, for example: ``Dealines
are available in table~\ref{tab:dead_lines}''.

\begin{table}
  \begin{center}
    \begin{tabular}{|rc|l|}
      \hline
      September 30 & 2004 & Problem submission\\
      \hline
      November 15 & 2004 & Paper submission and invited
      session submission\\
      \hline

      \hline
      February 15 & 2005 & Notification to authors\\

  \end{center}
  \caption{Deadlines and important dates}
  \label{tab:dead_lines}
\end{table}

\LaTeX\ source for table \ref{tab:dead_lines}:
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{table}

    \begin{tabular}{|rc|l|}
      \hline
      September 30 & 2004 & Problem submission\\

      session submission\\

      \hline
    \end{tabular}
  \end{center}
  \label{tab:dead_lines}
  \caption{Deadlines and important dates}
\end{table}
\end{verbatim}

Figures and tables must be included at the appropriate place in the 
text.  Please, do not use colored figures.  Please, provide the 
figures only using the \LaTeX\ picture commands, or in eps 
(Encapsulated PostScript) format.  A figure contained in the eps-file  
\verb@yourfile.eps@ can be included as follows: 
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{figure}
  \centerline{
    \includegraphics[width=.8\textwidth]{yourfile.eps}}
  \caption{This is a sample of how to include an  
  eps graphics file inyour manuscript.}
  \label{fig:ExampleEPSFile}
\end{figure}
\end{verbatim}

The \verb@[width=.8\textwidth]@ option specifies that the graphics has 
to be reduced to 80\%.  The \verb@\includegraphics@ command makes use 
of the graphicx style file, which is a standard \LaTeX\ graphics tool 
for including eps-figure files.

A figure containing only \LaTeX\ picture commands, can be 
specified as
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{figure}[t]
  \setlength{\unitlength}{4cm}
  \centerline{
    \begin{picture}(1,1)(0,0)
      \linethickness{.5pt}
      \put(0,0){\framebox(1,1){}}
      \put(0.25,0.25){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.25,0.75){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.75,0.75){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.75,0.25){\circle*{.02}}
    \end{picture}}
  \caption{This is an example of a figure that uses only 
  the \LaTeX\ picture commands. It contains four points.}
  \label{fig:ExamplePicture}
\end{figure}
\end{verbatim}

\begin{figure}[t]
  \setlength{\unitlength}{4cm}
  \centerline{
    \begin{picture}(1,1)(0,0)
      \linethickness{.5pt}
      \put(0,0){\framebox(1,1){}}
      \put(0.25,0.25){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.25,0.75){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.75,0.75){\circle*{.02}}
      \put(0.75,0.25){\circle*{.02}}
    \end{picture}}
  \caption{This is an example of a figure that uses only 
  the \LaTeX\ picture commands. It contains four points.}
  \label{fig:ExamplePicture}
\end{figure}

Equations should be typed using the \LaTeX\ commands 
\verb@\begin{equation}@ \verb@ ...  \end{equation}@.  For example: 
\begin{equation}
   g({\cal C}) := \sum_{i=1}^m \sum_{k\in C_i} \|x_k - 
   \bar{x}_{C_i}\|^2.
\end{equation}
If you do not want the equation to be numbered, use \verb@displaymath@ 
instead of \verb@equation@. For example: 
\begin{displaymath}
   g({\cal C}) := \sum_{i=1}^m \sum_{k\in C_i} \|x_k - 
   \bar{x}_{C_i}\|^2.
\end{displaymath}


\section{Specifying references}

The reference style is defined in {\tt
asmda2005References.sty}. Please use the \verb@\cite@ command to refer
to other works in your text. For example \cite{saporta_PADS1990} for
single author.  Please note that you need to protect the \verb@\cite@
command when used within an \verb@\itemize@ environment.

References will appear as follows:

\begin{itemize}
\item \protect\cite{saporta_PADS1990} for single author
\item \protect\cite{beasly_smith_ASA1985} in case of two authors
\item \protect\cite{chouakria_etal_ADSC1998} for more than two authors
\end{itemize}

\section{Submission of papers, deadlines}

Papers in the form of a {\tt pdf} file will be submitted to ASMDA 2005
electronically, please refer to the ASMDA 2005 website.

{\it The submission software will be available as soon as
possible. The guidelines to authors will be updated by the time the
electronic submission procedure is available.}

\begin{itemize}

\item the bibliography file,
\item a {\tt pdf} version of your paper,
