Next are the author processing charges for various publishers of conferences papers in computer science. Some remarks have to be made. LIPIcs charges €60 per 20 pages, which will become €80 on 1 January 2026. ACM will transition to open access starting by the end of 2025. For Lecture Notes in Computer Science, the pricing is a bit more complicated. The price below is for an individual paper. However, a volume (of up to 200 pages) is relatively cheaper, namely €6675 (£5675 or $7675).
