Submission guidelines
Submissions must be written in LaTeX using the LNCS LaTeX2e style and must not exceed 12 single-spaced pages, excluding the title page and the references. 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.
Authors should submit their contributions through Easychair.
Publication
CIAA 2025 proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
Special Issue
Extended versions of selected papers from the conference will be invited for consideration in a special issue of International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science (IJFCS).
