SCOPE AND LIST OF TOPICS:

    Computational Science is the study of addressing problems that are
    impossible to solve (or difficult to solve) without computers. The field
    is interdisciplinary by nature and includes the use of advanced
    computing capabilities to understand and solve complex problems. In
    short, Computational Science is the science of using computers to do
    science. Computational Intelligence is the study of computational 
methods
    in ways that exhibit intelligence. These methods adapt to changing
    environments and changing goals.

    Considering the above broad outline, the International Conference on
    Computational Science and Computational Intelligence (CSCI'17) is
    composed of the following symposiums; the web site for each symposium
    provides a detailed scope and a list of topics - see:
