Dear colleagues,

Following various requests for clarifications on the submission and
proceedings policy of The 10th Conference on the Theory of Quantum
Computation, Communication and Cryptography (TQC 2015), we would like
to remind the following.

Submissions
The aim of TQC is to bring together researchers to present and discuss
their most recent discoveries in an exciting atmosphere. With this
objective in mind, abstract material which has been previously
published in another conference proceedings or journal or which is
scheduled for publication prior to TQC will not be considered for
acceptance at TQC. However, authors can submit work that has been
presented orally or by poster at other conferences, that has been
submitted to (but not yet accepted in) a journal, or which has been
posted on open access electronic repositories (e.g. arXiv).  We
actually encourage submissions to such open access electronic
repositories.

Proceedings
Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the conference,
which are published in the Leibniz International Proceedings in
Informatics (LIPIcs) series.  A selection of posters will also be
invited to submit optionally a paper for the proceedings.
The LIPIcs series guarantees perennial, free and easy electronic
access, while the authors retain the rights over their work (CC-BY
3.0). In other words, publishing a paper in the TQC proceedings is
equivalent to posting it on the arXiv. In particular, abstract
material can be published elsewhere after TQC. Note though that,
contrarily to the arXiv and similarly to a journal, TQC submissions
are peer-reviewed.
Publication of accepted abstracts in the proceedings is not an
obligation, but is strongly encouraged. Remember that this is not
different than submitting to the arXiv.
The proceedings will be published after TQC. The final versions of the
accepted papers are due five months after the submission deadline and
about one month after the conference.

We also take this opportunity to remind you that the submission
deadline (February 6) is approaching!

More details about the conference can be found at http://tqc2015.ulb.ac.be/.

The organising committee
