THE 25th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
IMPLEMENTATION AND APPLICATION OF AUTOMATA

http://wwwdb.informatik.uni-bremen.de/ciaa2021/

The 25th International Conference on Implementation and Applications of
Automata will take place in Bremen, Germany between July 19 and 23, 2021.
It is organized by the Database Group (headed by Sebastian Maneth)
of the University of Bremen.

* IMPORTANT DATES *

Deadline for submissions: March 15 2021, AoE
Notification of acceptance or rejection: April 19, 2021
Camera ready for the conference proceedings: May 3, 2021
Conference: July 19--23, 2021

* SUBMISSIONS *

Submissions must be written in LaTeX using the LNCS style and must not
exceed 12 pages, bibliography included. If the authors believe that more
details are essential to substantiate the main claims, they may include
a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of the
program committee. Simultaneous submissions of papers to journals or any
other conference with published proceedings, or submitting previously
published papers is not allowed. Only electronic submission of PDF
documents is possible. The proceedings will be published in the Springer
LNCS series and will be available at the conference. Authors should
submit their contributions at the website
