   The 2016 International Conference on Computational Science and
   Computational Intelligence (CSCI) is composed of the following symposiums:

   - Symposium on Computational Science (CSCI-ISCS)
   - Symposium on Computational Intelligence (CSCI-ISCI)
   - Symposium on Internet of Things & Internet of Everything (CSCI-ISOT)
   - Symposium on Big Data and Data Science (CSCI-ISBD)

   - Symposium on Health Informatics and Medical Systems (CSCI-ISHI)
   - Symposium on Education (CSCI-ISED)


SCOPE AND LIST OF TOPICS:

The 2016 CSCI International Conference invites paper submissions from
diverse communities, including researchers from: universities,
corporations, government agencies, and standardization bodies. Papers
are sought that address solutions to problems in all areas of
computational science and computational intelligence.

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'16) is
composed of the following symposiums (the web site for each symposium
provides a detailed scope and a list of topics - see:
http://www.americancse.org/events/csci2016/Symposiums ):

- Symposium on Computational Science (CSCI-ISCS)
- Symposium on Computational Intelligence (CSCI-ISCI)
- Symposium on Education (CSCI-ISED)
- Symposium on Internet of Things & Internet of Everything (CSCI-ISOT)
- Symposium on Big Data and Data Science (CSCI-ISBD)
- Symposium on Signal and Image Processing, Computer Vision and
  Pattern Recognition (CSCI-ISPC)
- Symposium on Artificial Intelligence (CSCI-ISAI)
- Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing and Computational
  Science (CSCI-ISPD)
- Symposium on Mobile Computing, Wireless Networks, and Security
  (CSCI-ISMC)
- Symposium on Health Informatics and Medical Systems (CSCI-ISHI)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION OF PAPERS FOR EVALUATION:

   Papers should be typeset by using the general typesetting instructions
   available at:
   http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html 
   (i.e., use of regular Times New Roman, font size of 10, single line
   spacing, 2-column format). Authors of accepted papers will later receive
   more specific typesetting instructions. All submissions must be original
   (papers must not have been previously published or currently being
   considered by others for publication).

   Submissions must be in either MS doc or pdf formats (6 pages for Regular
   Research Papers; 4 pages for Short Papers; 2 pages for Poster Papers -
   the number of pages include all figures, tables, and references).

   The first page of the paper should include the followings:
   - Title of the paper
   - Name, affiliation, postal address, and email address of each author
     (identify the name of the Contact Author)
   - Abstract (between 100 and 120 words)
   - A maximum of 5 topical keywords that would best represent the work
     described in the paper
   - Write the type of the submission as "Full/Regular Research Paper",
     "Short Paper", or "Poster Paper"
   - Write the acronym of the most relevant symposium that this paper
     is being submitted to (Acronyms are: CSCI-ISCS, CSCI-ISCI, CSCI-ISED,
     CSCI-ISOT, CSCI-ISBD, CSCI-ISPC, CSCI-ISAI, CSCI-ISPD, CSCI-ISMC,
     CSCI-ISHI - see
     http://www.americancse.org/events/csci2016/Symposiums  for more details)
   - The actual text of the paper can start from the first page (space
     permitting).

   Submissions are to be uploaded to the submission/evaluation web
   site portal at:
   http://american-cse.org/ 


TYPE OF SUBMISSIONS/PAPERS:

  - Full/Regular Research Papers (maximum of 6 pages):
    Regular Research Papers should provide detail original research
    contributions. They must report new research results that represent
    a contribution to the field; sufficient details and support for
    the results and conclusions should also be provided. The work
    presented in regular papers are expected to be at a stage of
    maturity that with some additional work can be published as journal
    papers.

  - Short Papers (maximum of 4 pages):
    Short papers report on ongoing research projects. They should provide
    overall research methodologies with some results. The work presented
    in short papers are expected to be at a stage of maturity that with
    some additional work can be published as regular papers.

  - Poster Papers (maximum of 2 pages):
    Poster papers report on ongoing research projects that are still in
    their infancy (i.e., at very early stages). Such papers tend to
    provide research methodologies without yet concrete results.


REVIEW PROCESS

   Each paper will be peer-reviewed by 2 to 4 peers (except for papers that
   are philosophical in nature - such papers would be considered for panel
   discussions.) Confidentiality of submitted material will be maintained.
   Papers will be evaluated on the basis of originality, impact,
   significance, quality of research, quality of writing, and contribution
   to conference program and diversity. Papers whose authors include one
   or more members of the program committee will be evaluated using the
   double-blinded review process.
