Call for Papers

After successfully organising the first conference of this series, International Association of Educators and Researchers (IAER), registered CIC (Community Interest Company) in England and Wales, is happy to arrange the Second International Conference on Emerging Technologies in Computing (iCETiC ’19) 2019, which will be held from 19th - 20th August, 2019, at University of Essex, UK.

iCETiC ’19 Proceedings will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering (LNICST) Series, in cooperation with EAI. iCETiC ’18 Proceedings, also published in Springer-Verlag LNICST Series, is available at SpringerLink (https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319954493).

The conference will draw together researchers and developers from academia and industry. For inclusion in the Springer-Verlag LNICST series, the papers must adhere to Springer’s Guidelines for Authors of Proceedings, instructions for which can be found at: ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/svproc/guidelines/Springer_Guidelines_for_Authors_of_Proceedings.pdf. The easiest way to do this is to download and use the MS Word 2003 Proceedings template. Selected papers for consideration for further publication from the conference may be recommended for the following journals, as shown in the table below. This will be after they have been asked to be substantially extended and enhanced. However, the journals’ respective Editor-in-Chief and the members of the Executive Board will make the final decision about the inclusion of the papers. Furthermore, invited extended papers will be published in an edited book by Springer-Verlag.

Associated Journals

Journal of Database Management (JDM)

Computing and Informatics (formerly: Computers and Artificial Intelligence)
