Final CFP ICCSA'2010

Call for Papers for: The 2010 International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications ICCSA 2010 Faculty of Information Science, Kyushu Sangyo University, Fukuoka, Japan March 23 - 26 2010 http://www.iccsa.org The 2010 International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA 2010) will be held on March 23-26, 2010, at Kyushu Sangyo University, Fukuoka, Japan. ICCSA 2010 is the next event in the series of highly successful International Conferences on Computational Science and Its Applications, previously held in Suwon, Korea (2009), Perugia, Italy (2008), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (2007), Glasgow, United Kingdom (2006), Singapore (2005), Assisi, Italy (2004), Montreal, Canada (2003), and, as ICCS, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands (2002) and San Francisco (2001). Computational Science is a main pillar of most of the present research, industrial and commercial activities and plays a unique role in exploiting ICT innovative technologies. The ICCSA Conference offers a real opportunity to bring together scientists of different disciplines, discuss new issues, tackle complex problems and find advanced solutions breeding new trends in Computational Science. For this reason we cordially invite you to submit, either to the general sessions or to the International Workshops, contributions concerned with the Themes listed below as papers: of 10 to 16 pages (Theme Papers) that, after the reviewing process, will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) volumes. of 5 to 11 pages (Session Papers) that, after the reviewing process, will be published in the IEEE Computer Society proceedings. Papers submitted to the general sessions have to adopt the LNCS format. Papers submitted to a given session should adopt a common format (IEEE-CS or LNCS, according to the info listed for each session in the Conference web page http://www.iccsa.org/sessions ) Conference Themes The ICCSA 2010 Conference themes, grouped in five tracks, are the following (but are not limited to): 1. Track: Computational Methods, Algorithms and Scientific Application Computational Biology Computational Combustion Computational Chemistry Computational Fluid Dynamics Computational Physics Computational Geometry Computational Mathematics Computational Mechanics Computational Electro-magnetics Numerical Methods and Algorithms 2. Track: High Performance Computing and Networks Parallel and Distributed Computing Cluster Computing Supercomputing Cloud Computing Autonomic Computing P2P Computing Mobile Computing Grid and Semantic Grid Computing Workflow Design and Practice Computer and Network Architecture 3. Track: Geometric Modelling, Graphics and Visualization Scientific Visualization Computer Graphics Geometric Modelling Pattern Recognition Image Processing CAD/CAM Web3D, Virtual and Augmented Reality 4. Track: Advanced and Emerging Applications Biochemistry Bioinformatics Astrophysics Biometric Modelling Environmental, Climate and Weather Modelling Geology and Geophysics Nuclear Physics Financial and Economical Modelling Computational Journalism Geographical Information Systems 5. Track: Information Systems and Technologies Information Retrieval Scientific Databases Security Engineering Risk Analysis Reliability Engineering Software Engineering Data Mining Artificial Intelligence Learning Technologies Web Based Computing Web 2.0 Paper Submission THEME PAPERS: The submitted paper must be camera-ready, between 10 and 16 pages long and formatted according to the LNCS rules. Please consult the URL http://www.iccsa.org/author-instructions for formatting information and templates. SESSION PAPERS: The submitted paper must be camera-ready, between 5 and 11 pages long and formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society rules. Please consult the URL http://www.iccsa.org/author-instructions for formatting information and templates. To submit a paper, please connect to the Submission site from the link available at the ICCSA 2010 web site. Only papers submitted through the electronic system and strictly adhering to the relevant format will be considered for reviewing and publication. The paper must deal with original and unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere (copyright problems fall entirely under responsibility of the authors). Each paper will be reviewed by at least three experts in the relevant field (acceptance rate was 28% in 2005, 26% in 2006 and 28% in 2007, 29% in 2008, 30% in 2009) ensuring the publication of only top quality contributions. When a paper is accepted at least one of the authors has to register to the conference and deliver the related talk. Failure to do so shall lead to rejection of the application to attend next year conference and the exclusion of the paper for the current year proceedings.

Important Dates 15 November 2009: Deadline for paper submission to the General Tracks (Sessions may select a different deadline) 7 December 2009: Notification of acceptance 8 January 2010: Camera Ready Papers and early registration deadline 23-26 March 2010: ICCSA 2010 Conference. Proceedings The proceedings of the Conference will be published both by Springer-Verlag and IEEE Computer Society. In particular: 1. The selected top quality Theme Papers will appear in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series (paper length: 10-16 pages). 2. The selected top quality Session Papers will appear in the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings (paper length: 5-11 pages). For a selected number of top quality papers, the authors will be requested to extend the paper in order to be published as special issues in appropriate international journals. Conference policy By submitting the paper to ICCSA conference, all authors agree to abide by all ICCSA conference paper submission, publication and presentation policies. Namely, authors confirm that the work is original, has not appeared in literature in any form in the past and will not be submitted to any other venue concurrently with ICCSA submission or until it appears in ICCSA proceedings (in the case of acceptance). Furthermore, upon paper acceptance, authors agree to transfer copyright on the accepted paper to ICCSA, and one of the authors will register the paper and present the paper at the event. No paper withdrawals can be accepted after Conference pre-registration date or within three months of the actual event, whichever date comes first. Paper withdrawal request can be only accepted in writing through letter or fax to conference organizers.
