************************************************************************
SCOPE
*****
Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and
unpublished research on theoretical aspects of computer
science. Typical areas include (but are not limited to):
* algorithms and data structures, including: parallel, distributed,
approximation, and randomized algorithms, computational geometry,
cryptography, algorithmic learning theory, analysis of algorithms;
* automata and formal languages;
* computational complexity, parameterized complexity, randomness in
computation;
* logic in computer science, including: semantics, specification and
verification, rewriting and deduction;
* current challenges, for example: natural computing, quantum
computing, mobile and net computing.

SUBMISSIONS
***********
Authors are invited to submit a draft of a full paper with at most 12 pages
(excluding the references section). The usage of pdflatex and the LIPIcs
style
file (see below) are mandatory; no changes to font size, page geometry etc.
are permitted. Submissions not in the correct format or submitted after the
deadline will not be considered.
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 or
to journals
is not allowed. PC members are excluded from submitting.
As a novelty for STACS, there will also be a rebuttal period for authors.
Authors will
receive the reviews of their submissions (via EasyChair) on Nov 14/15 and
have three
days (Nov 15 – 17) to submit rebuttals (via EasyChair). These rebuttals
become part
of the PC meeting, but entail no specific responses.
The submission site, which opened on June 22, 2014, is
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=stacs2015

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://www14.in.tum.de/konferenzen/STACS2015/ .
