*Call for Papers*
-----------------
13th International Symposium on Foundations of Information and Knowledge Sy
stems - FoIKS 2024
https://foiks2024.github.io/
Abstract submission deadline: 24.11.2023
Paper submission deadline: 01.12.2023
The FoIKS symposia provide a biennial forum for presenting and discussing t
heoretical and applied research on information and knowledge systems. The g
oal is to bring together researchers with an interest in this subject, shar
e research experiences, promote collaboration and identify new issues and d
irections for future research.
FoIKS 2024 solicits original contributions (as well as extensions of previo
usly published contributions) dealing with any foundational aspect of infor
mation and knowledge systems. This includes submissions that apply ideas, t
heories or methods from specific disciplines to information and knowledge s
ystems. Examples of such disciplines are discrete mathematics, logic and al
gebra, model theory, information theory, (parameterized) complexity theory,
algorithmics and computation, statistics, and optimisation, among, of cour
se, many others.
The FoIKS symposia are a forum for intensive discussions. Speakers will be
given sufficient time to present their ideas and results within the larger
context of their research. Furthermore, participants will be asked to prepa
re a first response to another contribution in order to initiate discussion.

Submission Guidelines
---------------------
For long papers, the page limit is 16 plus additional pages of references.
For short papers, the maximum number of pages is 10 plus additional pages o
f references. All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted
to another journal or conference. Papers must be typeset using the Springer
LaTeX2e style llncs for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (see https://www
.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines an
d https://resource-cms.springernature.com/springer-cms/rest/v1/content/1923
8648/data/v6). Submissions that deviate substantially from these guidelines
may be rejected without review. Initial submissions must be in PDF format,
but authors should keep in mind that the LaTeX2e source must be submitted
for the final versions of accepted papers. Submissions in alternate formats
, such as Microsoft Word, cannot be accepted for either initial or final ve
rsions. The submissions will be judged for scientific quality and for suita
bility as a basis for broader discussion.
Submission is via the EasyChair link https://easychair.org/conferences/?con
f=foiks24.
Publication
-----------
The proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes i
n Computer Science. After the symposium, authors of selected papers will be
invited to submit extended journal versions of their papers for a FoIKS 20
24 special issue in the journal Knowledge Engineering Review (https://www.c
ambridge.org/core/journals/knowledge-engineering-review). Further details w
ill be provided on the conference website.
