COMPSAC 2016
40th Annual IEEE International Computers, Software & Applications
Conference June 10--14, 2016 Atlanta, Georgia, USA

New Challenges for Data, Systems & Applications

Call for Papers
************************************
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 problems, and future trends in computer and
software technologies and applications. The technical program includes
keynote addresses, research papers, industrial case studies, plenary and
specialized panels, fast abstracts, a doctoral symposium, poster sessions,
and a number of workshops and tutorials on emerging and important topics.
The theme of the 40th COMPSAC is gConnected World: New Challenges for
Data, Systems, and Applications. Our world becomes more and more connected
every day, with billions of computer applications, devices, and services
interacting globally to make our lives safer, convenient, and more
enjoyable. Computations, as well as sharable data and applications, are
becoming available everywhere. This explosive growth brings us closer
together and requires innovative technical solutions. With the rapidly
shrinking gap between cyber and physical domains, we face many new
challenges and new opportunities for computers, software, and
applications.
COMPSAC 2016 will provide a platform for in-depth discussion of such
challenges both in traditional and in emerging fields such as smart and
connected health, wearable computing, the Internet of Things,
cyber-physical systems, social networking, and the smart planet. COMPSAC
2016 will be organized as a tightly integrated union of several symposia,
each of which focuses on a particular technical segment. Big data is a
particularly highlighted theme in our symposia. Please visit
www.compsac.org for complete conference information.

Furthermore, COMPSAC 2016 will also include a student research
symposium/competition, fast abstracts sessions, workshops, poster
sessions, panels, and keynotes to facilitate discourse on and deepen the
understanding of these challenges by furthering the fundamental
contributions needed for advances in computing systems.

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well
as industrial practice reports.
Simultaneous submission to other publication venues is not permitted.  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.
Detailed instructions for electronic paper submission, panel, workshop,
and tutorial proposals, fast abstracts, industry papers, poster papers,
doctoral symposium, and the review process are available at
www.compsac.org.
