*****CALL FOR PAPERS: J1C2, WORKSHOP, FAST ABSTRACT, STUDENT RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM*****

IEEE COMPSAC 2019 Hosted by Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA July 15-19, 2019 Data-Driven Intelligence for a Smarter World

CALL FOR PAPERS: J1C2, WORKSHOP, FAST ABSTRACT, STUDENT RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM FOR FULL INFORMATION, PLEASE VISIT HTTPS://IEEECOMPSAC.COMPUTER.ORG/2019

COMPSAC is the IEEE Computer Society Signature Conference on Computers, Software and Applications. It is a major international forum for academia, industry, and government to discuss research results and advancements, emerging challenges, and future trends in computer and software technologies and applications. The theme of COMPSAC 2019 is Data-Driven Intelligence for a Smarter World.

In the era of “big data” there is an unprecedented increase in the amount of data collected in data warehouses. Extracting meaning and knowledge from these data is crucial for governments and businesses to support their strategic and tactical decision making. Furthermore, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) makes it possible for machines, processing large amounts of such data, to learn and execute tasks never before accomplished. Advances in big data-related technologies are increasing rapidly. For example, virtual assistants, smart cars, and smart home devices in the emerging Internet of Things world, can, we think, make our lives easier. But despite perceived benefits of these technologies/methodologies, there are many challenges ahead. What will be the social, cultural, and economic challenges arising from these developments? What are the technical issue related, for example, to the privacy and security of data used by AI/ML systems? How might humans interact with, rely on, or even trust AI predictions or decisions emanating from these technologies? How can we prevent such data-driven intelligence from being used to make malicious decisions?

J1C2 PAPERS submissions for J1C2 (Journal publication first, Conference presentation following) are based only upon peer-reviewed final papers already accepted for or published in an IEEE periodical after January, 2016. A submission will consist of no more than 2-3 pages including 1) the title of the paper, the names and affiliations of all authors, and the IEEE publication in which the paper was published/accepted, 2) the date of publication/acceptance with a link to the paper if already published, 3) a copy of the final published or accepted paper and the final acceptance letter from the periodical’s Editor-in-Chief, 4) a brief summary of the key results and contributions of the published/accepted paper, and 5) up to a 400-500 word description of new developments and/or future proposals beyond those in the original paper, to be presented at the conference.

WORKSHOP PAPERS COMPSAC 2019 offers 20+ workshops on topics related to computing, software, and applications. For a full list of workshops, please visit https://ieeecompsac.computer.org/2019/workshops/. Workshop papers are limited to 6 pages. Paper templates are available on the website.

FAST ABSTRACTS The Fast Abstract symposium seeks to bring together students, faculty and researchers working in computer software, applications, and related fields. FA papers should be a 2 page article presenting (https://ieeecompsac.computer.org/2019/fast-abstract/), for example, new ideas, work in progress, or opinions that address issues relevant to computer software, applications and related fields.

STUDENT RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM The Student Research Symposium provides a forum for both undergraduate and graduate students to interact with other students, faculty mentors, and industry practitioners. Submissions are a 4 page summary of their research work, which is later presented as a poster at the symposium.

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well as industrial practice reports. Simultaneous submission to other publication venues is not permitted except as highlighted at the COMPSAC 2019 J1C2 & C1J2 page. All submissions must adhere to IEEE Publishing Policies, and all will be vetted through the IEEE CrossCheck portal.

*****INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS*****

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well as industrial practice reports. Simultaneous submission to other publication venues is not permitted except as highlighted at the COMPSAC 2019 J1C2 & C1J2 webpage. In accordance with IEEE policy, submitted manuscripts will be checked for plagiarism. Instances of alleged misconduct will be handled according to the IEEE Publication Services and Product Board Operations Manual.

Please note that in order to ensure the fairness of the review process, COMPSAC follows the double-blind review procedure. Therefore we kindly ask authors to remove their names, affiliations and contacts from the header of their papers in the review version. Please also redact all references to authors’ names, affiliations or prior works from the paper when submitting papers for review. Once accepted, authors can then include their names, affiliations and contacts in the camera-ready revision of the paper, and put the references to their prior works back.
