ICTCS 2021 - 22th Italian Conference on Theoretical Computer Science 13-15 September 2021, Bologna, Italy THE CONFERENCE WILL BE HELD ON-LINE DUE TO CORONAVIRUS RESTRICTIONS http://helm.cs.unibo.it/ictcs2021/index.html CALL FOR PAPERS ================ SCOPE AND TOPICS ================ The Italian Conference on Theoretical Computer Science (ICTCS) is the conference of the Italian Chapter of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science. The purpose of ICTCS is to foster the cross-fertilization of ideas stemming from different areas of theoretical computer science. In particular, ICTCS provides an ideal environment where junior researchers and PhD students can meet senior researchers. Contributions in any area of theoretical computer science are warmly invited from researchers of all nationalities. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: agents, algorithms, argumentation, automata theory, complexity theory, computational logic, computational social choice, concurrency theory, cryptography, discrete mathematics, distributed computing, dynamical systems, formal methods, game theory, graph theory, knowledge representation, languages, model checking, process algebras, quantum computing, rewriting systems, security and trust, semantics, specification and verification, systems biology, theorem proving, type theory. ================ PAPER SUBMISSION ================ Two types of contributions, written in English and formatted accordingto Springer LNCS style, are solicited. Regular papers: up to 12 pages PLUS bibliography, presenting original results not appeared or submitted elsewhere. To ease the reviewing process, the authors of regula papers may add an appendix, although reviewers are not required to consider it in their evaluation. Communications: up to 5 pages PLUS bibliography, suitable for extended abstracts of papers already appeared/submitted or to be submitted elsewhere, as well as papers reporting ongoing research on which the authors wish to get feedback and overviews of PhD theses or research projects. Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts in PDF format via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ictcs2021 All accepted original contributions (regular papers and communications) will be published on CEUR-WS.org. For each accepted contribution, at least one of the authors is required to attend the conference and present the paper. ============================ TCS Special Issue ============================ Following the tradition, the authors of the very best papers presented at the conference will be invited to submit an extended version of their work in a special issue of Theoretical Computer Science journal. Invitations will be sent out after the workshop. The target is to publish the special issue by the end of the year 2022. =============== IMPORTANT DATES =============== Abstract submission: 17 May 2021 Paper submission: 24 May 2021 Notification: 30 June 2021 Revised version for pre-proceedings: 19 July 2021 Conference: 13-15 September 2021 Final version for CEUR-WS proceedings: 31 October 2021 (tentative) ================== INVITED SPEAKERS ================== Luca Padovani (Universit di Torino) Nadia Pisanti (Universit di Pisa) ==================== PROGRAM COMMITTEE ==================== Program Committee: Claudio Sacerdoti Coen (co-chair) (University of Bologna, Italy) Ivano Salvo (co-chair) (University of Roma ?Sapienza?, Italy) Franco Barbanera (University of Catania, Italy) Davide Bil (University of Sassari, Italy) Stefano Bistarelli (University of Perugia, Italy) Davide Bresolin (University of Padua, Italy) Mattia D?Emidio (University of L?Aquila; Gran Sasso Science Institute, Italy) Miriam Di Ianni (University of Rome "Tor Vergata", Italy) Diodato Ferraioli (University of Salerno, Italy) Roberta Gori (University of Pisa, Italy) Ruggero Lanotte (University of Insubria, Italy) Andrea Marino (University of Florence, Italy) Isabella Mastroeni (University of Verona, Italy) Marino Miculan (DMIF, University of Udine, Italy) Fabio Mogavero (University of Naples Federico II, Italy) Manuela Montangero (University of Modena e Reggio Emilia, Italy) Luca Roversi (University of Torino, Italy) Marinella Sciortino (University of Palermo, Italy) Francesca Scozzari (University of Chieti-Pescara, Italy) Elena Zucca (DIBRIS ?
