IMPORTANT DATES
------------------------
Submission due / June 19, 2015
Notification / August 31, 2015
Final version / September 21, 2015
SUBMISSION DETAILS
--------------------------
The submission should contain a scholarly exposition of ideas, techniques,
and results,
including motivation and a comparison with related work. The main text,
including title,
abstract, and references, should not exceed 11 pages in LNCS style. An
optional appendix
should be used to provide proof details that do not fit in the main text.
Submitted papers
must describe unpublished work. Authors should not submit papers with the
same results or
essentially the same results that are accepted or published or under review
by a conference
with refereed proceedings or a journal. Only electronic submission will be
allowed and only
pdf files will be accepted. It will be done via Easychair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isaac2015
At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the paper at
the conference
as a registered participant.
PUBLICATION
-----------------
The proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series.
Selected papers
will be invited to special issues of Algorithmica and International Journal
of Computational
Geometry and Applications.
AWARDS
-----------
A Best Paper and a Best Student Paper may be awarded. A paper is eligible
for the Best Student
Paper Award if all authors are full-time students at the time of submission.
To indicate that
a submission is eligible, please add the phrase "Eligible for the Best
Student Paper Award" in
the abstract.
