SUBMISSIONS
***********
Authors are invited to submit a draft of a full paper with at most 12
pages. The usage of pdflatex and the LIPIcs style file (see below) are
mandatory; no changes to font size, page geometry etc. are permitted.
The paper should contain a succinct statement of the issues and of
their motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief
explanation of their significance, accessible to non-specialist
readers. Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an
appendix to be read by the program committee members at their
discretion.
Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published
proceedings is not allowed.
The submission site, which opens on June 1, 2012, is
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=stacs2013 .
PROCEEDINGS
***********
Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium.
As usual, these proceedings will appear in the Leibniz International
Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl.
This guarantees perennial, free and easy electronic access, while the
authors retain the rights over their work.
In addition, the proceedings will also be available as archives in the
open access electronic repository HAL.
With their submission, authors consent to sign a license authorizing
the program committee chairs to organize the electronic publication of
their paper, provided the paper is accepted.
Further details are available on www.stacs-conf.org and on the
conference website, http://www.stacs2013.uni-kiel.de .
Each participant of the conference will receive a USB flash drive with
an electronic version of the proceedings. It is also planned to publish
selcted papers in a journal.
