IEEE COMPSAC 2017 - Final Call for Papers (paper submission deadline extended to January 31st)
by IEEE COMPSAC 23 Jan '17

23 Jan '17

Dear Colleague, please note that the paper submission deadline has been extended until January 31st, 2017. IEEE COMPSAC 2017 www.compsac.org Where: Turin, Italy. July 4–8, 2017 Paper submission deadline: January 31st, 2017 IEEE COMPSAC offers opportunities for recommending best papers for inclusions in IEEE publications (https://www.computer.org/web/compsac2017/journal-publication-opportunities for more details). ======================================= IEEE COMPSAC 2017 ======================================= COMPSAC (www.compsac.org) is the IEEE Computer Society Signature Conference on Computers, Software, and Applications. It is a major international forum for academia, industry, and government to discuss research results and advancements, emerging problems, and future trends in computer and software technologies and applications. The technical program includes keynote addresses, research papers, industrial case studies, plenary and specialized panels, fast abstracts, a doctoral symposium, poster sessions, and a number of workshops and tutorials on emerging and important topics. The theme of the 41st COMPSAC is Building Digital Autonomy for a Sustainable World. COMPSAC 2017 Symposia are as follows: CELT: Computer Education & Learning Technologies CAP: Computer Architecture & Platforms DSAT: Data Sciences, Analytics, & Technologies EATA: Emerging Advances in Technology & Applications HCSC: Human Computing & Social Computing ITiP: IT in Practice MOWU: Mobile, Wearable, & Ubiquitous Computing NCIW: Networks, Communications, Internet, & Web Technologies SEPT: Security, Privacy, & Trust SETA: Software Engineering Technology & Applications Sessions will include topics and issues related to adaptive learning and teaching, autonomous computing, wearable computing, the internet-of-things, social networking, cross-domain data fusion, privacy, security and surveillance, cloud computing, big data, physiological computing, self-aware and self-expressive systems, and emerging architectures and network issues that affect all these developing technology-driven innovations. Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well as industrial practice reports. COMPSAC offer publication opportunities in IEEE journals following the "Conference First / Journal Second (C1J2)" and "Journal First / Conference Second (J1C2)" Schemes (https://www.computer.org/web/compsac2017/journal-publication-opportunities). ======================================= JOURNAL PUBLICATION OPPORTUNITIES ======================================= COMPSAC is offering opportunities to recommend our best papers for inclusion in IEEE publications, and to encourage presentation of already published journal papers during the conference. These schemes, to be executed at the discretion of individual COMPSAC symposia and workshops chairs, are as follows: COMPSAC "Conference First / Journal Second (C1J2)" Scheme: Chairs may offer the authors of accepted papers opportunity for publication in an IEEE journal. In this C1J2 Scheme, a chair initiates the process to offer the paper(s), together with their COMPSAC reviews, for publication in an IEEE journal to the journal editor-in-chief (EIC). EICs may or may not use our reviews at their discretion, but may instead prefer to rely solely on their own reviewer communities. Such papers accepted by a journal for publication will appear in the COMPSAC proceeding as only an abstract accompanied by a note that the paper has been submitted to the journal for consideration for publication in that journal. If the paper is accepted for publication, a link to it will be provided in the conference proceedings, thus providing conference participants access to that paper. The paper will still be registered for COMPSAC and must as well be presented during the conference. If such a paper is not accepted by the journal, the paper will be later included in the conference electronic proceedings. COMPSAC "Journal First / Conference Second (J1C2)" Scheme: Similar to the above mentioned scheme, but taking place in the reverse order is the J1C2 scheme – journal publication first, conference presentation to follow. A published work in an IEEE journal, say within couple of years, or even accepted but not yet published, may be submitted to and presented at COMPSAC. If accepted, the conference proceedings will contain an abridged abstract and a link to the published version, thus conference participants may have access to that paper. This scheme benefits authors by presenting their work to a wider audience in person, discussion, networking with peers, and driving renewed interest to their work. The process is as follows: the author offers a paper by proposing it as a full-text manuscript submission to a symposium or a workshop; the paper is then lightly reviewed for suitability, scope, technical content and merit by the PC of the symposium/workshop; finally, the PC Chair(s) proposes a notification decision. The author then registers the paper and presents it during the conference at the time identified in the program. ============== KEYNOTES ============== Francesco Profumo, Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy Alberto Sangiovanni Vincentelli, University of California, Berkeley ============== MAIN DEADLINES ============== Main Conference Papers Due: 31 January 2017 Main Conference Notification: 27 March 2017 Workshop Papers Due: 10 April 2017 Workshop Paper Notification: 25 April 2017 Camera Ready and Registration Due: 9 May 2017 --- Questa e-mail è stata controllata per individuare virus con Avast antivirus. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

The conference also invites a small number of high quality tutorials and nationally recognized keynote speakers. The conference has grown out of two related meetings: SBP and BRiMS, which were co-located in previous years. Social computing harnesses the power of computational methods to study social behavior, such as during team collaboration. Cultural behavioral modeling refers to representing behavior and culture in the abstract, and is a convenient and powerful way to conduct virtual experiments and scenario analysis. Both social computing and cultural behavioral modeling are techniques designed to achieve a better understanding of complex behaviors, patterns, and associated outcomes of interest. Moreover, these approaches are inherently interdisciplinary; subsystems and system components exist at multiple levels of analysis (i.e., “cells to societies”) and across multiple disciplines, from engineering and the computational sciences to the social and health sciences. The SBP-BRiMS conference invites modeling and simulation papers from academics, research scientists, technical communities and defense researchers across traditional disciplines to share ideas, discuss research results, identify capability gaps, highlight promising technologies, and showcase the state-of-the-art in applications in the areas of cultural behavioral modeling, prediction, and social computing. Please see the SBP-BRiMS17 website for more details. Keynotes and tutorials delivered in the previous SBP and BRiMS meetings are available through the websites http://sbp-brims.org and http://cc.ist.psu.edu/BRIMS2015/ . CALL FOR PAPERS: Submissions are solicited on research issues, theories, and applications.
