CSP Track: http://www.sci.unich.it/~bista/organizing/constraint-sac2010/



************************************************************************
OVERVIEW

Constraints have emerged as the basis of a representational and
computational paradigm that draws from many disciplines and can be
brought to bear on many problem domains.



************************************************************************
SCOPE

The track is concerned with all aspects of computing with constraints
including algorithms, applications, environments, languages, models,
and systems. Contributions are welcome from any discipline concerned
with constraints, including artificial intelligence, combinatorial
algorithms, computational logic, concurrent computation, databases,
discrete mathematics, operations research, programming languages, and
symbolic computation. We also solicit papers from any domain employing
constraints, including computational linguistics, configuration,
decision support, design, diagnosis, graphics, hardware verification,
molecular biology, planning, qualitative reasoning, real-time systems,
resource allocation, robotics, scheduling, software engineering,
temporal reasoning, vision, visualization, and user interfaces. Papers
that bridge disciplines or combine theory and practice or discuss
novel reasoning methods are especially welcome. A special attention is
focused around the use of constraint technologies in the networking,
wireless and internet fields.


************************************************************************
SUBMISSIONS

Authors are invited to submit original work, not previously published,
and currently not submitted elsewhere.
We would like to invite authors to submit papers on research on
constraint solving and programming, with particular emphasis on
assessing the current state of the art and identifying future
directions.



Submission instructions:
Submissions MUST BE "Original, unpublished work".
Submissions should be properly anonymized to facilitate blind
reviewing: The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must NOT appear in
the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third
person. This is to facilitate blind review. Only the title should be
shown at the first page without the author's information."  The body
of each paper should not exceed 4,000 words. Papers failing to comply
with length limitations risk immediate rejection.  At least three
reviewers will be assigned to each submission to the track. Accepted
papers are published by ACM in both printed form and CD-ROM; they are
also available on the Web through the ACM Digital Library. Once
accepted, papers must fit within five (5) two column pages (please
check the author kit on the main SAC website: the format is usually
the format used in the ACM templates), with the option (at additional
expense) to add three (3) more pages.  A second set of selected
papers, which did not get accepted as full papers, will be accepted as
posters and will be published as extended 2-page abstracts in the
symposium proceedings.

Authors of accepted papers must be prepared to sign a copyright
statement and must pay the registration fee and guarantee that their
paper will be presented at the conference.



*) Submissions will be in electronic format, via the website:
   eCMS site http://sac.cs.iupui.edu/SAC2010/
*) Submissions must follow the template reported here:
   http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2009/downloads09.htm
*) Paper size: 5 pages. Authors are allowed up to 8 but
   each extra page will be charged 80USD.

We strongly suggest to use for submission the available
camera ready templates, and adhere to the 5 page limitation.

After completing the submission, please send also an email to:

               Eri...@in... <mailto:Eri...@in...>

The body of the email should include the title of the paper, the
author(s) name(s) and affiliation(s), and the address (including
e-mail, telephone, and fax) to which correspondence should be sent.
The subject of the email should be "SAC2009 constraint track
submission"

Registration is required for paper and poster inclusion in the
Conference Proceedings, and for event attendance.



************************************************************************
IMPORTANT DATES

The schedule of important dates for the track is as follows,
note that the submission deadline is **strict**:

Sept. 8, 2009: Paper submission
Oct. 19, 2009: Author notification
Nov. 2, 2009: Camera-Ready Copy
