The LNCS series reports state-of-the-art restilts in computer science research, development, and education, at a high lewl and in both printed and electronic form. Enjoying tight cooperation with the R&D community, with numerous individuals, as wetl as with prestigious organizations and
societies, LNCS has grown into the most comprehensiye computer science research forum available.
The scope of LNCS, including its subseries LNAI and LNBI, spans the whole range 0f computer science ard information technology including interdisciplinary topics in a vatety of application fields. The type of materia! published traditionatly includes
-proceedings-(published:in time for the lrespective conference)
-post-proceedings (consisting of thorodghly revised final full papers)
-research monographs (which may be based on outstanding PhD work,research projects, technical reports, etc.)
