The contributions are expected to focus on validated results achieved and on integration and interoperation of systems across the above described areas. Late-breaking advances and approaches’ evaluation reports are also encouraged. Paper submissions must present original, unpublished research or experiences. Papers under review elsewhere must not be submitted to the FIA Book 2013.

Submission of full contributions

The submission and acceptance of contributions will be subject to a rigorous peer review process to ensure originality, timeliness, relevance, and readability. Authors of accepted contributions will be invited in turn to submit camera-ready versions of their contributions, which will be subject to further review, acceptance, and a potential revision. The maximum length will be 12 pages using the LNCS format (templates can be found here: www.springer.com/computer/lncs).

Submission of short contributions

Position statements and late-breaking research advances and approaches are explicitly encouraged. These contributions will be subject to the same peer review process with the only difference that the maximum length will be 6 pages using the LNCS format (templates can be found here: www.springer.com/computer/lncs).
