(Please refer https://persons.iis.nsk.su/en/pssv2020 for more information about speakers and abstracts.) Types of Submissions and Publications Program Committee solicits * regular research submissions in the form of extended abstracts (up to 8 pages, LNCS style) in English (additional details could be included in an appendix up to 4 pages for Program Committee), each regular research submission will be reviewed by 3 PC members; * work in progress, position, poster and student papers (up to 4 pages), each of these submissions will be reviewed by a PC member. Right now Easy Chair submission page https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pssv2020 is open for regular paprs. All accepted papers will be published before the workshop (format and venue TBD) Selected revised and extended papers have been published after the workshop in Russian peer-review journal Modeling and Analysis of Information Systems ( https://www.mais-journal.ru ). We expect (as it was in the previous years of the PSSV) that English translations of some of these selected papers will appear next year in Automatic Control and Computer Sciences( http://www.springer.com/computer/hardware/journal/11950 ) (indexed by WoS and Scopus). Important dates: * regular research submissions (extended abstracts) - September 28, 2020; * notification for regular submissions - October 12, 2020; * short submissions (abstracts of work in progress, position papers and posters) - October 19, 2020; * notification for short submissions - October 26, 2020; * final versions of regular research submissions (for pre-proceedings) - October 26, 2020; * worksop (offline or online) - November 3-4, 2020; * invitations of selected talks to post-proceedings - November (TBD), 2020.
