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 6 - Network Complexity 7 - Complexity in Risk and Predictive Modeling ---------------------------- PUBLICATION ---------------------------- All papers presented at the congress venue will also be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library. Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: DBLP, Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, EI and SCOPUS A short list of presented papers will be selected and their revised and extended versions will be published in the *Special Issue of Journal of Grid Computing (JGC)*. Other special issues in the high quality journals like FGCS are also being discussed. ---------------------------- KEYNOTE SPEAKERS ---------------------------- Tobias Hoellwarth, EuroCloud Europe, Austria Péter Kacsuk, MTA SZTAKI, Hungary --------------------------- WORKSHOPS: --------------------------- Big Data Analytics and IoT for Smarter Healthcare - IoTforeHealth (IoTBDS) Chairs: Farshad Firouzi, Bahar Farahani and Victor Chang Submission: January 11, 2018 ---------------------------- PUBLICATION ---------------------------- In Cooperation with: International Federation for Systems Research European Association for Theoretical Computer Science   All papers presented at the conference venue will also be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library.   Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: DBLP, Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, EI and SCOPUS ------------------------------- Organizing Committees ------------------------------- CONFERENCE CHAIR Victor Chang, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS Víctor Méndez Muñoz, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, UAB, Spain Muthu Ramachandran, Leeds Beckett University, United Kingdom PUBLICITY CHAIR Anna Kobusinska, Poznan University of Technology, Poland Keynote Speaker Ernesto Estrada, University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom Please visit the IEEE COMPLEXIS 2018 website http://www.complexis.org/ProgramCommittee.aspx for the complete listing of organizing committee and TPC members.
