The Ershov Informatics Conference (the PSI Conference Series, 10th edition) is the premier international forum in Russia for research and applications in computer, software and information sciences. The conference brings together academic and industrial researchers, developers and users to discuss the most recent topics in the field. PSI provides an ideal venue for setting up research collaborations between the rapidly growing Russian informatics community and its international counterparts, as well as between established scientists and younger researchers.

It is permissible to include or link to an appendix listing detailed results or supporting data that do not fit within the page limits, as long as the paper can be evaluated without reading this appendix.

At  least  one  author  of  each  accepted  paper  must  register, attend the conference and present the paper.

Conference Proceedings

Preliminary proceedings will be available at the conference. Final versions of invited and accepted papers will be published by Springer-Verlag after the conference in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
