************************************************************************ STACS 2015 CALL FOR PAPERS 32nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science March 4 - 7, 2015, Garching near Munich, Germany Submission Deadline: Sep 21, 2014 (23:59:59 GMT/UTC) http://www14.in.tum.de/STACS2015 ************************************************************************ SCOPE ***** Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research on theoretical aspects of computer science. Typical areas = include (but are not limited to): - algorithms and data structures, including: parallel, distributed, approximation, and randomized algorithms, computational geometry, cryptography, algorithmic learning theory, algorithmic game theory, analysis of algorithms; - automata and formal languages; - computational complexity, parameterized complexity, randomness in computation; - logic in computer science, including: semantics, specification and verification, rewriting and deduction; - current challenges, for example: natural computing, quantum computing, mobile and net computing.

The usage of pdflatex and the LIPIcs style file (see below) are mandatory; no changes to font size, page = geometry etc. are permitted. Submissions not in the correct format or submitted after the deadline will not be considered. The paper should contain a succinct statement of the issues and of their motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief explanation of = their significance, accessible to non-specialist readers. Proofs omitted due = to space constraints must be put into an appendix, to be read by the = program committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings = or to journals is not allowed. PC members are excluded from submitting. As = a novelty for STACS, there will also be a rebuttal period for authors. = Authors will receive the reviews of their submissions (via EasyChair) on Nov = 14/15 and have three days (Nov 15 - 17) to submit rebuttals (via EasyChair). = These rebuttals become part of the PC meeting, but entail no specific = responses. The submission site, which opens on Jun 22, 2014, is https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dstacs2015 LIPICS STYLE FILES ****************** LIPIcs homepage: http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics tar ball: http://drops.dagstuhl.de/styles/lipics/lipics-authors.tgz CONTACT INFORMATION ******************* http://www14.in.tum.de/STACS2015 (for general information) pc-chairs-stacs2015@easychair.org (for information regarding paper submission)
