The 3rd Colloquium on Analytics, Data Science and Computing (CADSCOM 2021)

https://www.twincitiesacm.org/services/

The 3rd Colloquium on Analytics, Data Science and Computing (CADSCOM) will be held virtually on Saturday, March 20, 2021. CADSCOM provides an excellent opportunity for faculty, students, and professionals to share their original research in data science, analytics, and computing. The submissions are peer-reviewed and double-blind reviewed. The colloquium will feature prominent keynotes, industry-faculty panels, and peer-reviewed papers. Opportunities to fast track CADSCOM papers for journal publications (e.g., Journal of the Midwest Association for Information Systems (JMWAIS)) are also available.

CADSCOM 20201 has been approved by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) as a chapter conference. We are proud to partner with the Minnesota State IT Center of Excellence, Metropolitan State University, and Minnesota State University Mankato to host CADSCOM 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CADSCOM 2021 will be held virtually via video conferencing.
