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.
There will be a rebuttal period for authors. Authors will receive
the reviews of their submissions (via EasyChair) on Nov 13/14 and have
three days (Nov 14 – 16) to submit rebuttals (via EasyChair). These
rebuttals become part of the PC meeting, but entail no specific
responses.
The submission site is
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=stacs2016
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. 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.univ-orleans.fr/lifo/events/STACS2016/
