The final version of the accepted papers must be in the format required of publications in the LNCS series (a Latex source file will be required). A paper submitted to DBSec 2015 cannot be under review for any other conference or journal during the time it is being considered for DBSec 2015. Furthermore, after you submit to DBSec 2015, 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 2015, we will reject your paper without review and will notify the other conference/journal as well.
