CSR 2011 - 6th International Computer Science Symposium in Russia

CSR 2011 intends to reflect the broad scope of international cooperation in
computer science. It is the sixth conference in a series of regular events
started with CSR 2006 in St. Petersburg (see LNCS 3967), CSR 2007
in Ekaterinburg (see LNCS 4649), CSR 2008 in Moscow (see LNCS 5010),
CSR 2009 in Novosibirsk (see LNCS 5675), and CSR 2010 in Kazan (see
LNCS 6072).

SUBMISSIONS

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or a full paper of at most
12 pages, not including references, in the LNCS format (LaTeX, as pdf; final
version with source); instructions are here:

http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-...
Proofs and other material omitted due to space constraints are to be put into
a clearly marked appendix to be read at discretion of the referees. Papers
must present original (and not previously published) research. Simultaneous
submission to journals or to other conferences with published proceedings is
not allowed. The proceedings of the symposium will be published in Springer's
LNCS series.

Submissions should be uploaded to the EasyChair Conference system:

SATELLITE WORKSHOPS

A workshop on post-quantum cryptography, which is a satellite
workshop of CSR 2011, will be held in cooperation with PDMI on
June 12-13, 2011. The workshop will focus on new ideas in cryptography,
in particular in public key cryptography, that could lead to cryptographic
schemes resistant against attacks by quantum computers. Topics of interest
include (but are not restricted to): authentication, key establishment,
secret sharing, multiparty computation, hash functions. Workshop
co-chairs are Dima Grigoriev and Vladimir Shpilrain;
