The 44th International Symposium on
Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science
MFCS 2019
August 26-30, 2019, Aachen, Germany
http://tcs.rwth-aachen.de/mfcs2019
The MFCS conference series has been organized since 1972. Traditionally,
the conference moved between the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Poland,
while since 2013, the conference travels around Europe. In 2019 it will
take place in Germany.
MFCS is a high-quality venue for original research in all branches of
theoretical computer science. The broad scope of the conference
encourages interactions between researchers who might not meet at more
specialized venues. MFCS 2019 consists of invited lectures and
contributed talks, selected by an international program committee of
researchers focusing on diverse areas of theoretical computer science.
The conference will be accompanied by workshops.

IMPORTANT DATES
Submission Deadline: Monday, April 22nd, 2019 (AoE)
Notification: Wednesday, June 12th, 2019
Conference: Monday, August 26th, to Friday, August 30th, 2019

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mfcs2019
Submissions should be prepared according to the following instructions:
Papers should be formatted using the LIPIcs style. Length: up to 12
pages (excluding references and an optional appendix). References and an
optional appendix can go beyond the 12 pages (the appendix will be
consulted at the discretion of the program committee). It is mandatory

No prior publication or simultaneous submission to other conferences or
journals are allowed (except preprint repositories such as arXiv or
workshops without formal published proceedings).
PUBLICATION
MFCS 2019 proceedings will be published in LIPIcs (Leibniz International
Proceedings in Informatics) under an open source license (as in previous
years).
