Full Papers Submission Details
Authors are invited to submit original papers (written in english) not previously published nor submitted in parallel for publication to any other conference, workshop or journal. All submissions will be subjected to thorough blind review by at least three reviewers (if the paper involved a Program Committee member, the paper will be reviewed at least by five reviewers). All submitted papers should be anonymous with no author(s) names, affiliations, acknowledgments, nor obvious references. Each paper should begin with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords, following the template indicated by Springer at: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
The papers will be in .pdf format, at most 10 pages long excluding bibliography and well-marked appendices, and at most 14 pages long in total, using at least 11-point fonts with reasonable margins. As the reader should not be required to read any appendices, the paper should be intelligible even without them.
20 papers will be accepted for presentation at the workshop (they will be included in the proceedings) and 12 additional papers will be selected to be presented as A1 poster at the workshop (they will NOT be included in the Springer proceedings BUT the short papers and the related poster version will be distributed to workshop participants in CD-ROM formats).
If a submitted paper is mainly the result of the work of a student author, this paper could have the chance to be selected as "Best student paper" (even if the paper has been written with senior co-authors).
To participate to this selection process, please add the word "STUDENT" in the affiliation field in the submission form.
At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register with the Conference and present the paper. For authors presenting multiple papers, one normal registration is valid for up to two papers.
