SCOPE
The WorldCist'17 - 5th World Conference on Information Systems and
Technologies, to be held at Porto Santo Island, Madeira, Portugal, 11 -
13 April 2017, is a global forum for researchers and practitioners to
present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results,
experiences and concerns in the several perspectives of Information
Systems and Technologies.
We are pleased to invite you to submit your papers to WorldCist'17
(http://www.worldcist.org/). All submissions will be reviewed on the
basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity.
THEMES
Submitted papers should be related with one or more of the main themes
proposed for the Conference:
A) Information and Knowledge Management (IKM);
B) Organizational Models and Information Systems (OMIS);
C) Software and Systems Modeling (SSM);
D) Software Systems, Architectures, Applications and Tools (SSAAT);
E) Multimedia Systems and Applications (MSA);
F) Computer Networks, Mobility and Pervasive Systems (CNMPS);
G) Intelligent and Decision Support Systems (IDSS);
H) Big Data Analytics and Applications (BDAA);
I) Human-Computer Interaction (HCI);
J) Ethics, Computers and Security (ECS)
K) Health Informatics (HIS);
L) Information Technologies in Education (ITE);
M) Information Technologies in Radiocommunications (ITR).
TYPES of SUBMISSIONS AND DECISIONS
Four types of papers can be submitted:
- Full paper: Finished or consolidated R&D works, to be included in one
of the Conference themes. These papers are assigned a 10-page limit.
- Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results, open to
discussion. These papers are assigned a 7-page limit.
- Poster paper: Initial work with relevant ideas, open to discussion.
These papers are assigned to a 4-page limit.
- Company paper: Companies' papers that show practical experience, R &
D, tools, etc., focused on some topics of the conference. These papers
are assigned to a 4-page limit.
Submitted papers must comply with the format of Advances in Intelligent
Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for Authors at Springer
Website or download a DOC example) be written in English, must not have
been published before, not be under review for any other conference or
publication and not include any information leading to the authors’
identification. Therefore, the authors’ names, affiliations and
bibliographic references should not be included in the version for
evaluation by the Program Committee. This information should only be
included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word or Latex format and
also in PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent to
Publication form filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the
conference management system.
All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at least two
members of the Program Committee.
Based on Program Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or
accepted by the Conference Chairs. In the later case, it can be accepted
as the type originally submitted or as another type. Thus, full papers
can be accepted as short papers or poster papers only. Similarly, short
papers can be accepted as poster papers only. In these cases, the
authors will be allowed to maintain the original number of pages in the
camera-ready version.
The authors of accepted poster papers must also build and print a poster
to be exhibited during the Conference. This poster must follow an A1 or
A2 vertical format. The Conference can includes Work Sessions where
these posters are presented and orally discussed, with a 5 minute limit
per poster.
The authors of accepted full papers will have 15 minutes to present
their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 5 minutes of
discussion will follow each presentation. The authors of accepted short
papers and company papers will have 11 minutes to present their work in
a Conference Work Session; approximately 4 minutes of discussion will
follow each presentation.
PUBLICATION & INDEXING
To ensure that a full paper, short paper, poster paper or company paper
is published in the Proceedings, at least one of the authors must be
fully registered by the 8th of January 2017, and the paper must comply
with the suggested layout and page-limit. Additionally, all recommended
changes must be addressed by the authors before they submit the
camera-ready version.
No more than one paper per registration will be published in the
Conference Proceedings. An extra fee must be paid for publication of
additional papers, with a maximum of one additional paper per
registration. One registration permits only the participation of one
author in the conference.
Full and short papers will be published in Proceedings by Springer, in
Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series. Poster and company
papers will be published by AISTI.
Published full and short papers will be submitted for indexation by ISI,
EI-Compendex, SCOPUS, DBLP and Google Scholar, among others, and will be
available in the SpringerLink Digital Library.
The authors of the best selected papers will be invited to extend them
