Submissions

This year submissions are requested in the CEURART format since this is the camera-ready required format. However, submissions following the previous LNCS format will still be accepted.

At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the workshop to present the work.

We invite two types of submissions:

  • Short papers of up to 5 pages that may contain either original ongoing research or recently published results. In case of papers presenting recently published results, these should have an explicit “[Recent Work]” suffix in the title. Papers accepted in the Recent Work category will not be published in the workshop proceedings.
  • Regular papers of up to 10 pages, presenting original research.

Papers should be written in English and must be formatted according to the single-column CEURART style and submitted electronically via EasyChair (link available on the conference website) in PDF format. The submissions will be judged by the Program Committee for scientific quality and relevance. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the workshop to present the work. In case of papers presenting original work the authors can choose to opt-out from their paper being published in the workshop proceedings.
