    years' IEEE Xplore inclusion) in the proceedings of The 2018 
International
    Conference on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence 
(CSCI).
    Extended versions of selected papers of the conference will also appear
    in journals and edited research books (Springer, Elsevier, BMC, ...) The
    published proceedings can be accessed via IEEE CPS and other Digital
    libraries.

    CSCI'18 International Conference is composed of a number of symposiums,
    sessions, workshops, posters and panel discussions; all will be held
    simultaneously, same location and dates: December 13-15, 2018.


SCOPE AND LIST OF TOPICS:

    The 2018 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'18) is
    composed of the following research and technical tracks:

    - Computational Science (CSCI-ISCS)
    - Computational Intelligence (CSCI-ISCI)
    - Cyber Warfare, Cyber Defense, & Cyber Security (CSCI-ISCW)
    - Signal & Image Processing, Computer Vision & Pattern
      Recognition (CSCI-ISPC)
    - Smart Cities and Smart Mobility (CSCI-ISSC)
    - Education (CSCI-ISED) - includes accreditation, such as ABET
    - Health Informatics and Medical Systems (CSCI-ISHI)
    - Mobile Computing, Wireless Networks, & Security (CSCI-ISMC)
    - Software Engineering (CSCI-ISSE)
    - Internet of Things & Internet of Everything (CSCI-ISOT)
    - Big Data and Data Science (CSCI-ISBD)
    - Artificial Intelligence (CSCI-ISAI)
    - Social Network Analysis, Social Media, & Mining (CSCI-ISNA)
    - Cloud Computing and Data Centers (CSCI-ISCC)
    - Computational Biology (CSCI-ISCB)
    - Parallel & Distributed Computing (CSCI-ISPD)

    Submissions are to be uploaded to the submission/evaluation web site
    portal at: https://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. Authors whose papers are not selected for publication
    can submit a rebuttal letter; rebuttals will be evaluated by 4 members
    of the Program Committee.
