CONTRIBUTED PAPERS:
===================
The CiE conferences serve as an interdisciplinary forum for research in all aspects
of computability, foundations of computer science, logic, and theoretical computer science, as well as the interplay of these areas with practical issues in computer science and with other disciplines such as biology, mathematics, philosophy, or physics.
The PROGRAMME COMMITTEE cordially invites all researchers (European and non-European) to submit their papers in all areas related to the above for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cie2018 .
Papers must be submitted in PDF format, using the LNCS style (available at ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/llncs2e.zip) and should have a maximum of 10 pages, including references but excluding a possible appendix in which one can include proofs and other additional material. Papers building bridges between different parts of the research community are particularly welcome.
The CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS will be published by LNCS, Springer Verlag.
INFORMAL PRESENTATIONS:
=======================
Continuing the tradition of past CiE conferences, in addition to the formal presentations based on the LNCS proceedings volume, CiE 2018 will host a track of informal presentations, that are prepared very shortly before the conference and inform the participants about current research and work in progress. The deadline for the submission of abstracts for informal presentations is April 20, 2018.
WOMEN IN COMPUTABILITY:
=======================
We are very happy to announce that within the framework of the Women in Computability programme, sponsored by ACM-Women, we are able to offer four grants of up to 250 EUR for junior female researchers who want to participate in CiE 2018. Applications for this grant should be sent to Liesbeth De Mol, liesbeth.demol@univ-lille3.fr, before 15 May 2018 and include a short cv (at most 2 pages) and contact information for an academic reference. Preference will be given to junior female researchers who are presenting a paper (including informal presentations) at CiE 2018.
HaPoC Grants | Commission for the History and Philosophy of Computing
=====================================================================
The HaPoc Council is happy to announce the availability of two HAPOC travel grants of 250USD each to support participation to the conference. To be eligible for a grant, a paper or informal presentation in the area of history and/or philosophy of computing accepted at CiE 2018 is required. In order to apply for a grant, please send the following details to info@hapoc.org: cv, the paper or informal presentation submitted, accompanied by the acceptance email, a detailed budget indicating any other funding possibilities (if available).
