Paper Submissions
Submitted papers should be at most 16 pages in the LNCS format (author instructions can be found here), excluding bibliography and well-marked appendices, and at most 20 pages in total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, so the paper should be intelligible without them. Submissions are to be made to the submission web site at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dbsec20. All submissions must be written in English, and only PDF files will be accepted (a Latex source file will be required for the final version of the accepted papers). The final version of the accepted papers must be in the format required for publications in the LNCS series. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits.
Papers must be received by the deadline of February 15, 2020 February 29, 2020 (11:59 PM
American Samoa time). A paper submitted to DBSec 2020 cannot be
under review for any other conference or journal during the time it
is being considered for DBSec 2020. Furthermore, after you submit to
DBSec 2020, you must await our response before submitting elsewhere.
If you submit your paper to another conference or journal either
before/after submission of the paper to DBSec 2020, we will reject
your paper without review and will notify the other
conference/journal as well. This restriction applies to identical as
well as to substantially similar papers.
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be presented at the conference. Accepted papers will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
