Publication
The symposium proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Selected papers will
be invited to special issues of Algorithmica and International
Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications.
Paper Submission
Submissions should contain a scholarly exposition of ideas,
techniques, and results, including motivation and a clear comparison
with related work. Sub-missions including title, abstract, and
references, must be typeset using LNCS style; they must not exceed 10
pages. An optional appendix should be used to provide proof details
that do not fit in the main text. Submitted papers must describe work
not previously published. They must not be submitted simultaneously
to another conference with refereed proceedings or to a journal.
Drafts which contain essentially the same results as papers under
review in other conferences or journals at the moment of submission
cannot be submitted to ISAAC 2011. Only electronic submission (pdf)
will be allowed via the easychair submission server
(http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isaac2011).
Awards
A Best Paper and a Best Student Paper will be awarded. A paper is
eligible for the Best Student Paper Award if all authors are
full-time students at the time of submission. To indicate that a
submission is eligible, please add the phrase "Eligible for the Best
Student Paper Award" as the last sentence in the "Abstract" field in
the Web form of the submission server as well as in the paper.
