2015 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems
(FedCSIS)
Lodz, Poland, 13 – 16 September, 2015

(FedCSIS on www.ieee.org: http://tinyurl.com/FedCSIS-on-IEEE-2015)

The FedCSIS 2015 Federated Conference invites submissions of POSITION
PAPERS to its respective events. Position papers must not exceed 8 pages
and they should relate to an ongoing research or experience. Position
papers will be presented by the authors alongside regular papers. Position
papers may be also submitted as DEMO PAPERS and presented as demonstrations
of software tools and products. They should describe non-for-profit
software tools in a prototype-, alpha-, or beta-version.

We invite TWO TYPES OF POSITION PAPERS:

– EMERGING RESEARCH PAPERS present preliminary research results from
work-in-progress based on sound scientific approach but presenting work not
completely validated as yet. They must describe precisely the research
problem and its rationale. They must also define the intended future work
including the expected benefits from solution to the tackled problem.

– CHALLENGE PAPERS propose and describe research challenges in theory or
practice of computer science and information systems. The papers in this
category must be based on deep understanding of existing research or
industrial problems and should be defining new promising research
directions.

POSITION PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION:

Position papers will be published as a SEPARATE ELECTRONIC VOLUME, WITH an
ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers. These papers will NOT be placed in the IEEE
Digital Library and will NOT be submitted to Thomson Reuters Web of
Science. However, they will be indexed in the BazEcon database, and
submitted for indexing to: SciVerse Scopus, Inspec, DBLP Computer Science
Bibliography and Google Scholar.

Authors should submit a position paper in English, carefully checked for
correct grammar and spelling, using the on-line submission procedure. The
guidelines for paper formatting provided at the conference website ought to
be used for all submitted papers. The required submission format is the
same as the camera-ready format. Please check, and carefully follow, the
instructions and templates provided. Papers that are out of the conference
scope of the selected event, or that contain any form of (self)plagiarism
will be rejected without reviews. All position papers will be refereed
before inclusion in the conference program.

IMPORTANT DATES
– Position paper submission:      June 1, 2015; midnight HST (strict
deadline)
– Acceptance decision:      June 15, 2015
– Final version of paper submission:      July 1, 2015
– Final deadline for discounted fee:      July 1, 2015
– Conference dates:      September 13-16, 2015

FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS

2015 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems
(FedCSIS)

Lodz, Poland, 13 – 16 September, 2015

www.fedcsis.org

(FedCSIS on www.ieee.org: http://tinyurl.com/FedCSIS-on-IEEE-2015)

We would like to cordially invite you to consider contributing a paper to
the FedCSIS 2015 – an annual international multi-conference organized by
the Polish Information Processing Society (PTI) in technical cooperation
with the IEEE Region 8, IEEE Computer Society, IEEE Poland Section Computer
Society Chapter, IEEE Poland (Gdansk) Section Computer Society Chapter,
IEEE-CIS Poland Section Chapter, ACM Special Interest Group on Applied
Computing, ACM Lodz Chapter, European Alliance for Innovation, Committee of
Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Polish Operational and
Systems Research Society, Eastern Cluster ICT Poland, and Mazovia Cluster
ICT.

Please also forward the announcement to your colleagues and associates who
could be interested in it.

The FedCSIS Multi-conference consists of Events (conferences, symposia,
workshops, special sessions). Each Event may run over any span of time
within the conference dates (from half-day to four days). The FedCSIS
Events provide a platform for bringing together researchers, practitioners,
and academia to present and discuss ideas, challenges and potential
solutions on established or emerging topics related to research and
practice in computer science and information systems. Proceedings of the
FedCSIS 2012 conference have been indexed in the Thomson Reuters Web of
Science. (Proceedings of the 2013 and 2014 editions have been submitted for
WoS indexing and await decision).
