Conference Scope:
COMPLEXIS – the International Conference on Complexity, Future Information Systems and Risk, aims at becoming a yearly
meeting place for presenting and discussing innovative views on all aspects of Complex Information Systems, in different areas
such as Informatics, Telecommunications, Computational Intelligence, Biology, Biomedical Engineering and Social Sciences.
Information is pervasive in many areas of human activity – perhaps all and complexity is a characteristic of current Exabyte-
sized, highly connected and hyper dimensional, information systems. COMPLEXIS 2018 is expected to provide an overview of
the state of the art as well as upcoming trends, and to promote discussion about the potential of new methodologies,
technologies and application areas of complex information systems, in the academic and corporate world.
Conference Areas:
1 - Complexity in Informatics, Automation and Networking
2 - Complexity in Biology and Biomedical Engineering
3 - Complexity in Social Sciences
4 - Complexity in Computational Intelligence and Future Information Systems
5 - Complexity in EDA, Embedded Systems, and Computer Architecture

Scalable Computing and Communications
Special Issue on
Scalable Algorithms and Behavior Analytics in Cyber-Enabled World
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aims and Scope
Due to the emerging computing paradigm, the physical, social, and mental
world are increasingly integrating and merging into the cyberspace. In this
emerging but significant field, it is necessary to model the human
individual information processing along with their corresponding behaviors,
in order to build systematic knowledge about new phenomena, behaviors,
properties and practices across the broad applications in cyber-enabled
world. Specifically, studies related to scalable algorithm and behavioral
analysis are conducted in terms of the cyber entities, as well as their
relations and conjugations in physical, social and mental spaces, which
focuses more on the basic attributes, models, functions, and evolutions of
cyber entities, and all their possible relations conjugated with real
things. For this scientific and systematic study, numerous challenges are
raised as: How to establish and improve the foundational theory and
methodology for the scalable computing and data processing in the
cyber-enabled world? How to find a unified way to study and represent the
diversified cyber entities along with their behavior patterns and
communications? How to systematically extract, create, and fuse the
information, knowledge, and intelligence generated across the
physical-social systems for the sustainable utilization? How to deal with
the accompanying issues while producing numerous cyber things, such as
security, reliability, and etc.
Topics may include (but are not limited to):
• Scalable Communications in Cyber-world
• Data Centric Computing in Cyberspace
• Scalable Knowledge Modeling and Management in Cyber-world
• User Behavior Analysis and Modeling in Cyber-physical Systems
• User Influence Measure and Model in Cyberspace
• Cyber-Social Sensing and Behavior Analysis
• Scalable Cyber Hybrid Interface/System Design
• Scalable Mechanisms for Intelligent Transportation Systems
• Cyber-Based Learning Analytics with Scalable Computing
• Cyber-Empowered Sentiment Analysis and Mental Computing
• Wearable Computing and Smart Sensor
• Scalable Computing for Healthcare
• Scalability in Cyber Security, Privacy and Reliability
• Scalable algorithms for Cyber Visualization
• Scalable deep learning architectures
• Scalable Brain-inspired Computing and Soft Computing
• Scalable Agent-based Computing
• Scalable algorithms for the Internet of Things
• Scalable algorithms for Edge computing (EC) and Mobile Edge Computing
(MEC)
• Scalable Services for Pervasive Computing
Submissions
Authors should prepare their manuscript according to the Guide for Authors
of Scalable Computing and Communications available from
http://www.springer.com/41122 , and submit online at:
https://www.editorialmanager.com/scac . To ensure that the manuscript is
correctly identified for inclusion into the special issue, authors must

SCOPE:
The Advanced Course is not a summer school suited only for younger
scholars. Rather, a significant proportion of seasoned investigators are
regularly present among the attendees, often senior faculty at their own
institutions. The balanced audience that we strive to maintain in each
Advanced Course greatly contributes to the development of intense
cross-disciplinary debates among faculty and participants that typically
address the most advanced and emerging areas of each topic.
Each faculty member presents lectures and discusses with the participants
for one entire day. Such long interaction together with the small,
exclusive Course size provides the uncommon opportunity to fully explore
the expertise of each faculty, often through one-to-one mentoring. This is
unparalleled and priceless.
The Certosa di Pontignano provides the perfect setting to a relaxed yet
intense learning atmosphere, with the stunning backdrop of the Tuscan
landscapes. World-class wines and traditional foods will make the Advanced
Course on Data Science and Machine Learning the experience of a lifetime.
VENUE & ACCOMMODATION:
The venue of ACDL 2018 will be The Certosa di Pontignano — Siena
The Certosa di Pontigniano
Loc. Pontignano, 5 – 53019, Castelnuovo Berardenga (SI) – Tuscany – Italy

A few kilometres from Siena, on a hill dominating the town stands the
ancient Certosa di Pontignano, a unique place where nature, history and
hospitality blend together in memorable harmony. Built in the 1300, its
medieval structure remains intact with additions of the following
centuries. The Certosa is centred on its historic cloisters and gardens.
