Strict submission deadline (position papers): June 7, 2022, 23:59:59 AoE 

(no extensions)







************************** COVID-19 Information ************************



Conference will take place in Sofia Bulgaria, for those who will be able 

to make it there. For those who will not be able to reach Sofia, online 

participation will be made available.



************************************************************************







Please feel free to forward this announcement to your colleagues and 

associates who could be interested in it.







The FedCSIS 2022 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.

DATA MINING COMPETITION -- Predicting the Costs of Forwarding Contracts



The topic of this year's data mining competition is prediction of costs 

related to the execution of forwarding contracts. The data sets will 

contain multiple years of history of orders appearing on the transport 

exchange, along with details such as the type of order, basic 

characteristics of the shipped goods (e.g., dimensions, special 

requirements), as well as the expected route that a driver will have to 

cover. The task will be to develop a predictive model that will assess 

the actual cost of individual orders as accurately as possible (for 

detailed information see: https://fedcsis.org/2022/aaia/dm). Prizes for 

best solutions are:



      • 1,000 USD for the winning solution (+ the cost of one 

FedCSIS’2022 registration)

      • 500 USD for the 2nd place solution (+ the cost of one 

FedCSIS’2022 registration)

      • 250 USD for the 3rd place solution (+ the cost of one 

FedCSIS’2022 registration)







ZDZISLAW PAWLAK BEST PAPER AWARD



The Professor Zdzislaw Pawlak Awards are given in the following categories:



•	Best Paper Award (€600)

•	Young Researcher Paper Award (€400)

•	Industry Cooperation Award (€400)

•	International Cooperation Award (€400)



All papers accepted to FedCSIS 2022 are eligible to be considered as the 

award winners.



This award will be granted independently from awards given by individual 

FedCSIS events (Tracks and/or Technical Sessions).



Past Award winners can be found here: https://fedcsis.org/2022/zp_award









POSITION PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION:



Position papers will be published as a Volume of the Annals of Computer 

Science and Information Systems series (https://annals-csis.org/), with 

an ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers. The papers will be submitted for indexing 

to DBLP Computer Science Bibliography and Google Scholar (see, also: 

https://annals-csis.org/indexation). The Annals-CSIS volume will NOT be 

placed in the IEEE Digital Library and will NOT be submitted to 

Clarivate Analytics Web of Science.



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.
