  • Long papers: 12-page, 30-min presentation including questions
  • Short papers: 6-page, 15-min presentation including questions
  • Posters: 2-page, 5-min presentation (asynchronous questions)

Important dates

  • Abstract submission: June 22
  • Paper submission: June 30 
  • (Standard double-blind or collaborative peer-to-peer review process)
  • Notification of acceptance: Aug 31
  • Prerecorded presentations: Sept 15
  • Conference: Sept 30 – Oct 1, 2015

Topics

CS-DC’15 is organized in two groups of five e-tracks, each e-track being subdivided into several e-sessions. Topics are derived from the European, African and Latino American roadmaps on complex systems, whose writing involved several hundred researchers across all disciplines. The following list of e-tracks is a result of their collective effort. Since no list can claim to be exhaustive, there is an extra “open e-track” on the Foundations of Complex Systems Science. In the same way, each e-track has an “open e-session”. Therefore, submissions are not limited to the list here, as new e-sessions can emerge from the submissions made to the open categories.
