CALL FOR PAPERS
DATES
- Submission deadline: 6 May 2016 (Friday), at 23:59, anywhere on earth
- Notification of acceptance: 9 June 2016 (Thursday)
- Conference: 19-21 July 2016 (Tuesday-Thursday)
THEME
SIROCCO is devoted to the study of the interplay between communication
and knowledge in multi-processor systems from both the qualitative and
quantitative viewpoints. Special emphasis is given to innovative
approaches and fundamental understanding, in addition to efforts to
optimize current designs.
SIROCCO has a tradition of interesting and productive scientific
meetings in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, attracting leading
researchers in a variety of fields in which communication and knowledge
play a significant role.
SCOPE
Original papers are solicited from all areas of study of local
structural knowledge and global communication and computational
complexities. Among the typical areas are distributed computing,
communication networks, game theory, parallel computing, social
networks, mobile computing (including autonomous robots), peer to peer
systems, and communication complexity. Keeping with the tradition of
SIROCCO, new areas are always welcome.
PAPER SUBMISSION
Papers are to be submitted electronically through EasyChair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sirocco2016
Authors are invited to submit their work in one of the three acceptable
formats: novel research contributions, position papers, and surveys.
Original research papers must contain results that have not previously
appeared and have not been concurrently submitted to a journal or
conference with published proceedings. In all cases, any partial overlap
with any published or concurrently submitted paper must be clearly
indicated.
All submissions must be in English, in PDF format. You can use either of
the following layouts for your submissions:
- Cover page + 10 pages + references, letter or A4 paper, single column,
at least 11-point font, at least 1-inch margins, reasonable line spacing.
- 12 pages + references, LIPIcs or LNCS style.
Additional details may be included in an appendix, to be read at the
programme committee's discretion.
PROCEEDINGS
The proceedings of SIROCCO 2016 will be published in Springer's LNCS series.
