Conference format

This edition aims to have the following format, although some changes might occur based on suggestions made by the Steering Committee. It is planned to include: (1) three days of communications with invited speakers and short and long contribution talks according to the papers submitted and the reviews of the Program Committee, and (2) an Interaction Day similar in spirit to the Brainstorming Week on Membrane Computing (BWMC) that is usually organized in Sevilla every year, where the participants will work in a collaborative way to attack open problems and propose new approaches, problems and results. An IMCS General Assembly will be also organized.

Important dates

• Deadline for submissions: 17 April 2017
• Notification of acceptance: 29 May 2017
• Final version: 19 June 2017

Only electronic submissions are accepted. Papers should be written in LaTeX and formatted according to the usual LNCS article style which can be downloaded at Springer's LNCS website. Please, include all source files as well as all additional files (figures etc.), and also attach a PDF version of the submission. Submissions have to be sent through the EasyChair web page
