COMPLEXIS: Call for Papers

The International Conference on Complexity, Future Information Systems and Risk (COMPLEXIS) aims to be a yearly meeting place for presenting and discussing innovative views on all aspects of Complex Information Systems. The conference encourages submissions from areas such as Informatics, Telecommunications, Computational Intelligence, Biology, Biomedical Engineering, and Social Sciences.

Scope

COMPLEXIS provides an overview of the state of the art and upcoming trends, and promotes discussion about the potential of new methodologies, technologies and application areas of complex information systems.

The conference seeks papers reporting research work, applications or case-studies. Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged. Both technological and social-oriented papers are accepted. All papers must describe original work, not previously published or submitted to another conference.

Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the Proceedings of COMPLEXIS under an ISBN, and will be indexed by major indexes. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports (regular papers) and work-in-progress reports (position papers) are welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions.

Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and focused presentations, as well as tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific topics are also envisaged.

Paper Submission

Authors can submit their work in the form of a complete paper or an abstract. However, note that accepted abstracts are presented but not published in the proceedings.

Complete papers can be submitted as:

• Regular Paper: representing completed and validated research.
• Position Paper: portraying a short report of work in progress or an arguable opinion about an issue discussing ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research.

Authors should submit a paper in English, checked for grammar and spelling, addressing the conference areas or topics. Each paper should indicate its technical/scientific contribution, and the problems, domains or environments to which it is applicable.

To facilitate double-blind evaluation, authors should provide the paper without any reference to the authors' personal details.

Authors are advised to read INSTICC's ethical norms regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism thoroughly before submitting and must make sure that their submissions do not substantially overlap work which has been published elsewhere or simultaneously submitted to a journal or another conference with proceedings.

All papers must be submitted through the online submission platform PRIMORIS and follow the instructions and templates under Guidelines and Templates.

Publications

All accepted complete papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on digital support.
SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef, and every paper on our digital library is given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier).

The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by SCOPUS, Google Scholar, DBLP, Semantic Scholar, EI and Web of Science / Conference Proceedings Citation Index.
