FSCD covers all aspects of formal structures
for computation and deduction from theoretical foundations to
applications. Building on two communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques
and Applications) and TLCA (Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications),
FSCD embraces their core topics and broadens their scope to closely
related areas in logics, proof theory and new emerging models of
computation such as quantum computing or homotopy type theory.

Submission instructions
Submissions can be made in two categories: regular research papers and
system descriptions.
- Submissions of research papers must present original research which
is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed 15
pages (including figures and bibliography). Submissions of research
papers will be judged on originality, significance, correctness,
and readability.
- Submission of system descriptions must describe a working system
which has not been published or submitted elsewhere. They must not
exceed 10 pages and should contain a link to a working
system. System descriptions will be judged on originality,
significance, usefulness, and readability.
Proofs of theoretical results that do not fit within the page limit,
executables of systems, code of case studies, benchmarks used to
evaluate a given system, should be made available, via a reference to
a website or in an appendix of the paper. Reviewers will be encouraged
to consider this additional material, but are not obliged
to. Submissions must be self-contained within the respective page
limit; considering the additional material should not be necessary to
assess the merits of a submission.
Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files for authors
that can be found
here.
A condition of submission is that, if accepted, one of the authors
must register and attend the conference to give the presentation.
Papers must be submitted via easychair. The submission site is
here.
Best paper award by junior researchers
The program committee will consider declaring this award to a paper in which all authors are junior researchers: a junior researcher is a person who is either a student or whose PhD award date is less than three years from the first day of the meeting. If a paper is eligible for consideration as the
best paper by junior researchers, please signal that fact by having for one of the authors send mail to the PC Chair at
fscd17@easychair.org.
The Proceedings
The proceedings will be published as an electronic volume in the
Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs). All LIPIcs
proceedings are open access.
Authors of an accepted paper will be given instructions on how to upload
their final paper (LaTeX source files and final pdf file) along with
the meta-data associated with the paper and a signed author agreement
form confirming that Leibniz-Zentrum füur Informatik (the publisher for
LIPIcs) is authorized to publish the paper.
After the conference, authors of selected papers will be invited to
submit extended versions of their work to a special issue published in
the open-access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (LMCS).
