CAV Camera Ready
Use this after acceptance. CAV papers are published open access as Springer LNCS chapters, so the
camera-ready is a Springer production step with its own metadata and rights forms. Reopen the current
LNCS author instructions, the decision email, and the artifact-track page before advising.
Camera-ready audit
De-anonymize (Regular and Application papers): restore the author block, affiliations,
acknowledgements, funding, and the real tool/solver and repository names that double-blind review
forced you to hide. (Tool and Industrial papers were never anonymized.)
Apply the final LNCS format: the llncs document class, within the category page allowance and
any camera-ready extension the acceptance letter grants, with correct running heads and the
Springer copyright line.
Complete Springer LNCS metadata: title/abstract, author order and ORCIDs, corresponding author,
affiliations, and keywords — entered in the Springer system and matching the PDF exactly. Metadata
errors are harder to fix after the volume is published than formatting ones.
Integrate reviewer-required changes faithfully — the scoping edits and added clarifications the
reviews and rebuttal committed to — without strengthening claims beyond what was evaluated.
Permanentize the artifact/open-science links: replace any anonymized artifact link with a
public, licensed, DOI-issuing archive, and make the paper's availability statement point at it.
Complete the open-access / copyright forms: CAV proceedings are open access, so confirm the
correct license and the open-access consent/rights form for the volume.
