SUBMISSION

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts presenting original research on any of the research fields related to SAGT2011. No simultaneous submission to other publication outlets (either a conference or a journal) is allowed.

Submission Format: An extended abstract submitted to SAGT2011 should start with the title of the paper, each author's name, affiliation and e-mail address, followed by a one-paragraph summary of the results to be presented. This should then be followed by a technical exposition of the main ideas and techniques used to achieve these results, including motivation and a clear comparison with related work. The extended abstract should not exceed 12 single-spaced pages, using reasonable margins and at least 11-point font (excluding references and title page). If the authors believe that more details are essential to substantiate the claims of the paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix (with no space limit) that will be read at the discretion of the Program Committee. It is strongly recommended that submissions adhere to the specified format and length. Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately.

Submissions are to be made electronically, following the guidelines on the Symposium web page. Authors unable to submit electronically should contact the Program Chair to receive instructions.

Industrial application works and position papers presenting novel ideas, issues, challenges and directions are also welcome. PC members are also eligible to submit papers.

All submissions will be rigorously peer-reviewed and evaluated on the basis of the quality of their contribution, originality, soundness, and significance. The PC-coauthored papers will undergo the typical peer-reviewing procedure, but there will be a separate Committee to judge their quality and significance.

IMPORTANT DATES

Submission Deadline: May 9, 2011, 23:59 GMT.

Notification: June 28, 2011.

Camera Ready Version: July 24, 2011.

Conference: October 17-19, 2011.

SUBMISSION LINK

Papers must be submitted electronically to the submission server.

PRESENTATION

It is expected that accepted papers will be presented at the Symposium by one of the authors.

PUBBLICATION

The Symposium proceedings will be published by Springer in its LNCS series (Lecture Notes in Computer Science); they will be available for distribution at the conference. Each paper in the proceedings will be restricted to a maximum of 12 pages (in LNCS format). Extended and revised versions of selected papers will be considered for a Special Issue of the Theory of Computing Systems journal.
