In particular: 1. The selected top-quality Theme Papers and Session Papers having adopted LNCS, will appear in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series (paper length: 10-16 pages). 2. The selected top-quality Session Papers having adopted CPS, will appear in the CPS post-conference Proceedings. 3. Short papers will appear in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science ( LNCS) series (paper length: 7-9 pages) 4. PHD Showcase Papers will be published in the CPS post-conference Proceedings. For a selected number of top-quality papers, after the Conference, the authors will be requested to extend the paper in order to be published as special issues in appropriate international journals. Conference policy ----------------- By submitting the paper to ICCSA conference, all authors agree to abide by all ICCSA conference paper submission, publication and presentation policies. Namely, authors confirm that the work is original, has not appeared in literature in any form in the past and will not be submitted to any other venue concurrently with ICCSA submission or until it appears in ICCSA proceedings (in the case of acceptance). Furthermore, upon paper acceptance, authors agree to transfer copyright on the accepted paper to ICCSA, and one of the authors will register the paper and present the paper at the event. No paper withdrawals can be accepted after Conference pre-registration date or within three months of the actual event, whichever date comes first. Paper withdrawal request can be only accepted in writing through email, letter or fax to conference organizers. The conference has no responsibility for any intentional or accidental misuse, misinterpretation, or failure to follow above rules and conditions and holds no legal, civil or other responsibility for opinions, content or utilization of any methods/algorithms expressed in the Conference Proceedings.

28 Feb '21

Symposium on Intelligent and Autonomous Systems (SIAS 2021) Tallinn, Estonia. June 21-23, 2021. <https://www.sscc.fr/SIAS2021/> https://www.sscc.fr/SIAS2021/ in conjunction with " <https://cs.ttu.ee/events/medi2021/> 10th International Conference on Model and Data Engineering (MEDI 2021)" SIAS 2021 CFP The needs of our daily life push forward modern systems to be well connected more user independent, autonomous, and smart. Intelligent and Autonomous Systems (IAS), that support IoT and CPS, facilitate difficult daily tasks in large eras of applications, especially in industry where a large amount of collected data should be efficiently analyzed in order to be optimally exploited. IAS offer a great importance and promising outcomes with a direct impact on a society safety, productivity, and development. The difficulty arises on both sides of either developing new IAS or enhancing the deployed ones with the needed features and capabilities. IAS run on different environments and should follow different standards that make it difficult to ensure IAS requirements. Many solutions were developed in academia and applied by industrial to build a smart and autonomous system. Some of them rely on formal methods and system engineering whereas others look forward on big data and data analysis using mainly artificial intelligence techniques, in addition to other research areas such as networking, security, resiliency, etc. SIAS2021 provides a platform for professionals from academia, government, and industry to discuss how to address the increasing challenges facing IAS.

The purpose of WINSYS, the International Conference on Wireless Networks and Mobile Systems, is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested on information systems and applications in the context of wireless networks and mobile technologies. Information systems and information technology are pervasive in the whole communications field, which is quite vast, encompassing a large number of research topics and applications: from practical issues to the more abstract theoretical aspects of communication; from low level protocols to high-level networking and applications; from wireless networking technologies to mobile information systems; many other topics are included in the scope of WINSYS. WINSYS is organized in 5 major tracks: 1 - Wireless and Mobile Technologies 2 - Mobile Software and Services 3 - Wireless Optical Communications 4 - Ciber-Physical Systems 5 - e-Health Monitoring Conference Chair(s) Jaime Lloret Mauri, Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, Spain Program Chair(s) Joel Rodrigues, Federal University of Piauí (UFPI), Teresina - Pi, Brazil; Instituto de Telecomunicações, Portugal With the presence of internationally distinguished keynote speakers: Shahid Mumtaz, Instituto de Telecomunicações, Portugal Sandra Sendra, Univ. Politécnica de Valencia, Spain Muhammad Sajjad, NTNU, Norway Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: SCOPUS Google Scholar The DBLP Computer Science Bibliography Semantic Scholar Microsoft Academic Engineering Index (EI) Web of Science / Conference Proceedings Citation Index A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer in a CCIS Series book. Also, a short list of best papers will be invited for a post-conference special issue of the Springer Nature Computer Science journal. All papers presented at the conference venue will also be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library. Kind regards, Mónica Saramago WINSYS Secretariat Address: Av. S. Francisco Xavier Lote 7 Cv.
