BNCOD 2011 seeks research papers, proposals for tutorials and for demonstrations of research and commercial systems, for presentation at the conference and subsequent publication.
Full papers (12 pages), short papers (8 pages), poster papers (4 pages), demo proposals (2 pages), tutorial proposals (2-page extended abstract) may be submitted.
As in previous years, papers will be published by Springer as a volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. BNCOD 2011 will adopt a post-conference proceedings approach allowing for revision in the light of feedback from the referees. Accepted papers will only be published if they are presented in person by a registered author in the conference sessions.
All submissions should be in PDF, formatted according to the Springer guidelines for the LNCS series. These can be found at
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0
The submission site is open at
