NIK is a broad national conference aimed at being an important
national venue for discussions, networking, and dissemination of
research and advanced development work in informatics and computer
science. Topics of interests cover all areas of informatics,
theoretical and applied computer science. NIK accommodates
interdisciplinary work and diversity in scientific approaches and
application areas.
Submitted research papers can be in the form of long papers (up
to 12 pages) reporting on ongoing or completed research work.
Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will
be published in proceedings of the Norwegian Informatics Conference.
The proceedings has its own ISSN number and is approved as a
scientific publication channel at level 1.
Accepted papers must be presented at the conference. The paper and
presentation can be in Norwegian, in another Scandinavian language,
or in English. NIK also encourages the submission of papers based on
Bachelor and Masters theses; a number of grants covering the
registration fee will be available to submitted student papers.
