Call for Papers (2nd Round)

15th INTERNATIONAL COMPUTER SCIENCE SYMPOSIUM IN RUSSIA (CSR 2020)

June 29 - July 03, 2020, Ekaterinburg, Russia

https://csr2020.sciencesconf.org/

CSR is an annual international conference held in Russia that is designed
to cover a broad range of topics in Theoretical Computer Science. The list
of previous CSR conferences can be found at https://logic.pdmi.ras.ru/~csr/
. Conference proceedings are published in Springer's Lecture Notes in
Computer Science series. We will publish a selection of extended versions
of accepted papers in a Special Issue of the Springer journal "Theory of
Computing Systems". A further Special Issue with invited extended versions
of accepted algorithmic papers is planned with the MDPI journal
"Algorithms". Yandex Awards for the best paper and for the best student
paper will be given by the PC.

IMPORTANT DATES (2nd Round)

Deadline for paper submissions: February 13th, 2020, aoe

Notification of acceptance: March 15th, 2020

Conference dates: June 29 - July 03, 2020

VENUE

Ekaterinburg is the 4th largest city in Russia and the capital of the Ural
region. It is easily accessible either via Moscow or Saint Petersburg, or
by a direct flight from Europe (Munich, Paris, Prague, Rome) or Asia
(Beijing, Dubai, Harbin, Istanbul, Tel Aviv). The conference will take
place at Ural Federal University located in the heart of the picturesque
city center.

SUBMISSIONS

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original research in the
conference topics, in electronic form (pdf format) via EasyChair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csr2020

Submissions must be unpublished, not under review for publication
elsewhere, and provide sufficient information to judge their merits.
Submissions must be in English, and not exceed 12 pages, including the
title page, in Springer's LNCS LaTeX style. Additional material, to be read
at the discretion of reviewers and PC members, may be provided in a clearly
marked appendix or by reference to a manuscript on a website.

At least one of the authors must commit to presenting the paper at the
conference.
