Clarifications about abstracts (15 September deadline)

We are receiving requests of clarification about the abstract/paper submission as the first deadline (15 september!) approaches. We applied a schema that is usual in some of our community of reference, wrongly presuming that all communities would have the same. That’s an interesting feature of working in a multi-disciplinary area!

So, I’ll try to clarify: for this first conference, we accept only “full” papers. We have a two-steps submission; first we ask for an abstract, then, after 15 days, for the full paper.

The motivation beyond this procedure are a) allowing the organizers more time to sort the reviewers assignments b) leaving submitters 15 more days to refine their contribution.

For the abstract, the limit is one page. The paper format and limits (15 pages) remain the ones in the call:

All submissions should be no longer than 15 pages, in pdf format. Authors are encouraged to use Springer LNCS format for proceedings.
