Call for posters

Poster submissions on topics related to the theory and practice of computer science, including all areas within the scope of SOFSEM2027, are invited. The poster session will provide a forum for presenting and discussing late-breaking research results, ongoing work, and innovative ideas (which may also appear elsewhere) with the SOFSEM community.

Authors should prepare a short abstract describing their work and submit it together with the poster. Each submission must therefore consist of two PDF files: the abstract and the poster.

Submission Format

Authors are invited to submit posters accompanied by a short abstract describing the main ideas, contributions, and results of their work. Each submission must consist of two PDF files: the poster and its accompanying abstract.

Poster abstracts should be prepared in accordance with the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) author guidelines, using the official LaTeX or Word templates provided by Springer.

Submissions must satisfy the following requirements:

  • Poster abstract: Maximum 3 pages, including the title, author information, and references.
  • Poster: A single-page PDF suitable for display during the poster session.
  • Appendices: No appendices are expected for poster abstracts.

Authors are encouraged to use clear and concise language, appropriately acknowledge related work, and ensure that figures, tables, and references are legible.

Submission Procedure

Posters must be submitted electronically through EasyChair. The submission server is: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sofsem2027

Single-Blind Review Process

Poster submissions to SOFSEM2027 will be reviewed by the Program Committee following a single-blind review process. Accordingly, submissions should not be anonymized. The submitted abstract must include the names, affiliations, and email addresses of all authors.

Awards

To recognize the effort of participants to prepare their posters in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Poster Award voted on by the SOFSEM2027 attendees.

Venue

The conference will be held in the "Karolos Papoulias Conference Center", which is located in the University Campus. The campus is located at a 6 km distance from the city centre and access is possible by urban bus that runs every 10 mins from the city centre.

All questions about submissions should be emailed to sofsem2027@easychair.org.
