26th International Colloquium on Structural Information and
Communication Complexity (SIROCCO 2019)
July 1-4, 2019, L'Aquila, Italy
OVERVIEW. SIROCCO is devoted to the study of the interplay between
structural knowledge, communication, and computing in decentralized
systems of multiple communicating entities. Special emphasis is given to
innovative approaches leading to better understanding of the
relationship between computing and communication. 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.
This year, SIROCCO will be held in L'Aquila, a beautiful historical city
in the mountain side, 100km away from Rome.
SCOPE. Original papers are solicited from all areas of study of local
structural knowledge, 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, communication complexity, fault tolerant graphs, and
probability in networks. Keeping up with the tradition of SIROCCO, new
areas are always welcome.
SUBMISSIONS. Papers are to be submitted electronically through EasyChair
at the following link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sirocco2019.
Authors are invited to submit their work in one of the two acceptable
formats: regular papers and brief announcements. First, abstracts should
be registered and later the full papers are due. A regular submission
must report on original research and must contain results that have not
previously appeared, and have not been concurrently submitted to a
journal or a conference with published proceedings. It must be no longer
than 12 single-column pages on letter-size paper using at least 11-point
font, including tables and references. Up to 4 additional pages of
figures may be included with the submission. Additional details may be
included in a clearly marked appendix, which will be read at the
discretion of the program committee. Full Proofs omitted for lack of
space should appear in an appendix.
A submission for a brief announcement must be no longer than 3
single-column pages on letter-size paper using at least 11-point font.
The title of a submission for a brief announcement must begin with
"Brief announcement:". Such submissions may describe work in progress or
work presented elsewhere. A submission that is not selected for regular
presentation may be invited for a brief announcement.
PUBLICATION. Regular papers and brief announcements will be included in
the conference proceedings that will be published by Springer. Regular
papers receive up to 15 pages, brief announcements receive up to 2
LNCS-style pages.
BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARD. A prize will be given to the best student
regular paper. A paper is eligible if at least one author is a full-time
student at the time of submission, and the contribution of the student
is significant. This must be noted on the cover page. The program
committee may decline to give the award or may split it.
