Paper Submission

The submission should contain a scholarly exposition of ideas, techniques, and results, including motivation and a clear comparison with related work. The length of the submission should not exceed twelve pages in LNCS style.
If the authors feel that more details are essential to substantiate the main claim of the paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of the program committee.
Only electronic submission (pdf) will be allowed.
Submitted papers must describe work not previously published.
They must not be submitted simultaneously to another conference with refereed proceedings or a journal. At least one of the authors of accepted papers is expected to present their work at the conference.


Publication

The symposium proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Selected papers will be invited to special issues of Algorithmica and International Journal on Computational Geometry and Applications.


Awards

The Best Paper and the Best Student Paper will be awarded.
The Best Student Paper Award will be given to the best paper written solely by one or more students. A paper is eligible if all authors are full-time students at the time of submission.
To indicate that a submission is eligible, please add the phrase "Eligible for best student paper" as the last sentence in the "Abstract" field in the web form on the submission server as well as in the paper. The program committee may decline to make the award, or may split it among several papers.
