INVITATION:

   You are invited to submit a paper for consideration. In case of
   hesitation by some authors/speakers to travel during Year 2022 (due
   to COVID-19), the CSCI Steering Committee has developed a policy in
   regards to presentation modes - please refer
   https://american-cse.org/csci2022/presentation_modes 
   Last year, over 65% of the registrants physically (face-to-face)
   attended the event.

   In summary: This year's conference will be a hybrid event that combines
   a "live" in-person face-to-face event with a "virtual" online component.

   Digital Library at:
      https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/conhome/1803739/all-proceedings 

   Since its inception, all CSCI proceedings have always been approved and
   included into IEEE Xplore indexation/digital-library citation databases.
   The proceedings of CSCI have also been included in other major citation
   index systems (including, Ei Compendex, Scopus, IEEE Xplore, and others).
   We anticipate the same level of indexation in all future offering of CSCI.

TYPE OF SUBMISSIONS/PAPERS:

   https://www.american-cse.org/csci2022/paper_categories 

   Please note that the number of pages stated below includes all figures,
   tables, and references - if the authors need extra pages, then the editors
   would permit one extra page above and beyond the maximum number of pages
   stated here at no extra charge.

   - Full/Regular Research Papers (maximum of 6 pages):
     Regular Research Papers should provide detail original research
     contributions. They must report new research results that represent a
     contribution to the field; sufficient details and support for the
     results and conclusions should also be provided. The work presented
     in regular papers are expected to be at a stage of maturity that with
     some additional work can be published as journal papers.

   - Short Papers (maximum of 4 pages):
     Short papers report on ongoing research projects. They should provide
     overall research methodologies with some results. The work presented
     in short papers are expected to be at a stage of maturity that with
     some additional work can be published as regular papers.

   - Poster Papers (maximum of 2 pages):
     Poster papers report on ongoing research projects that are still in
     their infancy (i.e., at very early stages). Such papers tend to provide
     research methodologies without yet concrete results.
