submitted for publication elsewhere; see also the note below.

 

System/Application descriptions. Submissions should describe an

implemented system/application and its application area(s). A

demonstration should accompany a system/application presentation. Papers

describing systems or applications that have already been presented in

JELIA before will be accepted only if significant and clear enhancements

have been implemented and are properly reported.

 

All submissions should not exceed 13 pages for long papers and 6 pages

for short papers (excluding references, including everything else, for

example figures), and should be written in English. Submissions must be

formatted according to the standard Springer LNCS style, and are not

anonymous. The conference proceedings of JELIA 2021 will be

published by Springer Verlag in the series Lecture Notes in Artificial

Intelligence, a sub-series of Lecture Notes in Computer Science

(important note: Springer will require all the LaTeX source files of all

accepted submissions).

 

JELIA 2021 is happy to announce that there will be Best Paper and Best

Student Paper Prizes sponsored by Springer, each is a cash prize

amounting to EUR 500.
