SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

High quality papers on unpublished research and implementation
experiences may be submitted. All papers must be original and not
substantially duplicated work that has been published at, or is
simultaneously submitted to, a journal or another conference or
workshop. All submissions must be written in English and span no
more than 20 pages in the Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer
Science (LNCS) format (a Springer template can be found in
Overleaf), including title, abstract, and bibliography. The
introduction should summarize the contributions of the paper at a
level understandable by a non-expert reader and explain the
context to related work.

Submitted papers may contain supplementary material in the form
of well-marked appendices. Note that supplementary material will
not be included in the proceedings. Moreover, the main paper
should be intelligible without requiring the reader to consult
the supplementary material.

Submissions must be anonymous (no author names, affiliations,
acknowledgments, or obvious references). The conference will also
consider short papers of up to eight pages in the LNCS format,
excluding the bibliography (max 2 pages), for results that are
not yet fully fleshed out or that simply require few pages to
describe but still make a significant contribution.

All submissions must be processed with LaTeX2e according to the
instructions given by Springer. Submitted manuscripts must be
typeset in plain Springer LNCS format, in particular without
changing the font size, margins or line spacing. Submissions not
meeting these guidelines may be rejected without consideration of
their merits.

Papers must be submitted via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=cans24
The deadline for submissions is 14 April anywhere on earth (AoE).

PRESENTATION REQUIREMENTS

At least one author of every accepted paper must register and pay
the full registration fee (non-student) for the conference by the
early registration deadline indicated by the organizers. Papers
without a registered author will be removed from the
sessions. Authors must present their own paper(s). Session
proceedings, including all accepted papers, will be published
in LNCS and will be available at the conference.
