CALL FOR POSITION PAPERS


15th Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems (FedCSIS’2020)

Sofia, Bulgaria, 6-9 September, 2020

www.fedcsis.org

Strict submission deadline: July 17, 2020, 23:59:59 pm HST
(no extensions)


(FedCSIS IEEE conference number: #49059)

*********************** COVID-19 Information ***************************

Taking into account lack of certainty that it will be possible to 
organize the conference on-site (in Sofia) in September, we have decided 
that there is no other way but to organize the conference 100% 
telepresence/video-based. This decision makes us very sad, but we 
believe that this is the best one we can make. This decision has 
consequences. First, the new conference fee has been reduced to 150 euro 
(for each contributed and accepted paper). Second, since we do not have 
to deal with local arrangements, we can use the extra time and we have 
established the new submission deadline. It is now July 17, 2020 for the 
position papers. We are looking forward to e-meet you.

************************************************************************


The FedCSIS 2020 Federated Conference invites submissions of POSITION 
PAPERS to its respective events. Position papers must not exceed 8 pages 
and they should relate to an ongoing research or experience. Position 
papers will be presented by the authors alongside regular papers. 
Position papers may be also submitted as DEMO PAPERS and presented as 
demonstrations of software tools and products. They should describe 
non-for-profit software tools in a prototype-, alpha-, or beta-version.


We invite TWO TYPES OF POSITION PAPERS:

- EMERGING RESEARCH PAPERS present preliminary research results from 
work-in-progress based on sound scientific approach but presenting work 
not completely validated as yet. They must describe precisely the 
research problem and its rationale. They must also define the intended 
future work including the expected benefits from solution to the tackled 
problem.

- CHALLENGE PAPERS propose and describe research challenges in theory or 
practice of computer science and information systems. The papers in this 
category must be based on deep understanding of existing research or 
industrial problems and should be defining new promising research 
directions.
