SUBMISSION INFORMATION
The program committee is soliciting papers describing original work. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit an extended abstract of at most 15 pages in pdf-format. The authors of accepted papers must guarantee to present their paper at the workshop. We strongly recommend that the paper is typeset using LaTeX and the LNCS style which is available here.
Please use the online submission system to submit your paper.
The conference will have opt-in final proceedings.
Opt-in means that regardless of past or future exposure all well-written papers can be accepted for presentation at the conference, and for inclusion in the informal pre-proceedings distributed at the conference. Only those submissions for which the copyright is still held by the authors and whose authors indicate at the moment of the submission that they would like to be evaluated for inclusion in the formal proceedings would get thorough evaluation by the PC members. The submission must be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgments, or obvious references. It should begin with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords.
It is planned that a selection of the submissions will appear in a special issue of Science of Computer Programming. More information will be made available later.
