Submission Guidelines
Each submitted paper must be original and unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere (copyright problems fall entirely under responsibility of the authors). Each paper will be reviewed by at least three experts in the relevant field ensuring the publication of only top quality contributions. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors should register and present orally the paper in the conference. Failure to do so shall lead to exclusion of the paper from the proceedings.

FNSS 2015 proceedings will be published by Springer as part of the Communications in Computer and Information Science series (http://www.springer.com/series/7899). Extended versions of selected FNSS2015 papers will be invited for a journal special issue.

Authors should prepare their manuscripts carefully in adherence to Springer requirements using the template available at: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0
