==================================================================================

Welcome to the 30th IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC).
The first IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC) was held in
1995 in response to the growing interaction between the fields of computers
and communications. Since then, ISCC takes place annually, usually in the
Mediterranean region, and in locations such as Egypt, Greece, France,
Tunisia, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Italy, and Brazil. In 2025, the
Symposium will take place  in Bologna, Italy.

ISCC sessions will include presentations on new research results and
tutorials. Papers describing original work are invited in any of the
computer and communications areas mentioned in  the Call for Papers.
Accepted papers will be included in the ISCC 2025 conference proceedings,
which will be subject to independent peer-review procedures for quality,
and may be eligible for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore® Digital Library.
Merit, relevance, and originality will guide paper acceptance. Best Paper
Awards and Best Student Paper Awards  will be presented.

submitted directly to EDAS: XXX

Note that accepted papers up to 6 pages will be published with no
additional charge. Exceeding pages will be charged an additional fee.
Papers exceeding 7 pages will not be accepted. At least one author of each
accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present the
paper. Only registered and presented papers will be published in the
conference proceedings. Accepted papers will be included in the ISCC 2025
proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore. The ISCC
proceedings have been indexed in the past by ISI, DBLP and Scopus. This
makes the ISCC conference one of the publication venues with very high
