What are source files and why are they needed?

The source files are the editable version of a paper, specifically its camera-ready PDF file.

It may be either a Microsoft Word file or all the LaTeX files needed to compile the PDF.

The source file is a required field to be able to upload the camera-ready version of a paper to Confy+ and thus be published. It also needs to be in an archive file (zip, rar, tar.gz).

The source files are needed for typesetting purposes, corrections and modifications of the papers.
