Here is the Checklist of your full package of files:
(1)The following is a URL link to the "Information for CCIS Authors" web page (Springer CCIS Author Kit) for The Second International Conference on Ubiquitous Security (UbiSec
2022):

We need the source files (LaTeX files with all the associated style files, special fonts
and eps or bib files, or Word or rtf files) and the final PDF file of your camera-ready
paper (final paper). There should be one set of source files and one PDF file per paper.
Please strictly use the Latex Style files or WORD templates appeared in the above
Springer CCIS Author Kit when preparing your camera-ready paper. Notice that your final
PDF file should NOT contain any page numbers. Also notice that your final PDF file
should NOT contain any running head. Also notice that the final PDF file MUST be exactly
corresponding to the final source files. Also notice that your final PDF file should NOT be included in the sub-folder containing the set of source files if you use Latex, meaning that you should put these three files "FinalPaper.pdf", "Consent to Publish Form.pdf", and "additional information.txt", into the first-level folder (outside the Latex source files sub-folder).
(2)We need a "Consent to Publish form", signed by one author on behalf of all of the
authors of the paper. Please download and sign this attached copyright form "LTP_ST_SN_Singapore". Do not use the version downloaded from Springer/CCIS website. In this form, please make sure that you will write down/fill in these fields as follows:

paper. Approximately one to two weeks after the Volume Editors send all of the files to
Springer, the authors are given the opportunity to check the final PDF files of their
papers. The contact author should be available to check the proof of the paper upon
request in a timely way.
(4)A suggestion for an abbreviated running head, if appropriate. Please do not put any
page numbers and/or running head in the paper. However, please suggest that you provide
an abbreviated running head for your paper if the title of your paper is too long. The
typesetting team at Springer will insert running heads, final page numbers, and a
reference line at the bottom of the first page of each paper on all papers
accordingly.
(5)Information about correct representation of authors' names, where necessary.
TIP 1: In the first page of your final paper, please indicate authors' names in the
following way: First Name (Given Name) followed by Last Name (Family Name).
TIP 2: If your name contains complex family names, particles, or suffixes, please let us
know what is your given name and what is your family name; otherwise, you don't need to
let us know explicitly what is your given name and what is your family because we can
easily identify them in the first page of your final paper.

file within the full package of files. Please use "additional information.txt" as the

instead.
(8) About the keywords of your paper: Please provide 5-8 keywords for your paper. Please
use semicolon (";") to separate between two keywords. Please follow the formatting rule
to use "upper case first letter" for each word as in the title, except for propositions

the same as the "Abstract" section; the "Keywords" section should NOT be formatted the
same as the "Introduction" section.

-------------------------------------------
P.S. Two LaTex commands for your reference:
-------------------------------------------
1) To remove all page numbers and running heads in LaTex, please use the command
\pagestyle{empty} before the document begins.
For example:
\documentclass[runningheads,a4paper]{llncs}
......
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
......
\end{document}
2) To mark the corresponding author in the first page of the paper, you should use a
small envelope. You can use the bbding package of LaTex, and use the command \inst{
(}\Envelope\inst{)} right after the name of the corresponding author, where is the
number referring to different addresses or affiliations.
For example, Guojun Wang is the corresponding author and he is with the first
affiliation, then it should be coded as follows:
\documentclass[runningheads,a4paper]{llncs}
......
\usepackage{bbding}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
......
\author{ Guojun Wang \inst{1 (}\Envelope\inst{)} }
......
\end{document}
