Submission: 

The workshop is open to original papers of theoretical or practical nature. Papers should be formatted according to LNCS instructions for authors. VINALDO 2024 will follow a double-blind review process. Authors should not include their names and affiliations anywhere in the manuscript. Authors should also ensure that their identity is not revealed indirectly by citing their previous work in the third person and omitting acknowledgments until the camera-ready version. Papers have to be submitted via the workshop's EasyChair submission page.

We welcome the following types of contributions:

• Full research papers (12-15 pages): finished or consolidated R&D works, to be included in one of the Workshop topics

• Short papers (6-8 pages): ongoing works with relevant preliminary results, opened to discussion.

Please include in the paper title "Full paper: Title" or "Short paper: Title" to precise the contribution type. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop, in order to present the paper. For further instructions, please refer to the ICDAR 2024 page.
