extended by a week.
Abstract submissions: 8 December 2011
Paper submissions: 15 December 2011
Tutorial submissions: 17 December 2011
Any papers submitted without an abstract after 8 December 2011 will not
be considered for presentation at the conference.
Diagrams is the only conference series that provides a united forum for
all areas that are concerned with the study of diagrams, including
architecture, artificial intelligence, cartography, cognitive science,
computer science, education, graphic design, history of science,
human-computer interaction, linguistics, logic, mathematics, philosophy,
psychology, and software modelling. The conference attracts a large
number of researchers from virtually all these related fields,
positioning Diagrams as a major international event in the area.
We invite submissions that focus on any aspect of diagrams research, as
follows.
- long research papers (15 pages)
- short research papers (7 pages)
- posters (3 pages)
All submissions will be fully peer reviewed. The proceedings, which will
include accepted long and short papers and posters, will be published by
Springer in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science series,
http://www.springer.com/lncs.
Full details on the preparation of submissions can be found on the
conference web site
