Call for Papers

EAI CICom 2022 will be held as a fully-fledged online conference.

In 2021, EAI successfully launched an online conference format to ensure the safety, comfort and quality of experience for attendees and a successful course of the events, all while retaining fully live interaction, publication and indexing. Due to the unrelenting global pandemic, this will also be the case in 2022.

Although we will miss having everyone meet and connect in person, we feel strongly that knowledge exchange must continue, if not more so. That is why we have equipped our online conferences with live viewing with chat, virtual Q&A, and a multitude of other measures to provide you with a great experience. Learn more about EAI’s online conferences.

Scope

In this year’s CICom, we are soliciting original contributions on computational intelligence and communications whose applications are beneficial to the concerned entity in particular, and to the society in general. In other words, we are soliciting contributions on ethical use of computational intelligence and communications. We are particularly interested in new solutions that detect and stop the propagation of fake news, prevent malware, stop hacking, detect facial recognition for surveillance purposes, and the likes. Other works related to this theme are welcome.

Computational intelligence is a computer science field by which a computer can learn a specific task from data or experimental observation. It addresses complex real-world problems in which mathematical or traditional modelling are not the preferred solution given that (i) the involved computational process might be too complex for mathematical reasoning; (ii) it might contain some uncertainties during the process, or (iii) by nature, the computational process is a randomly determined one (heuristic). EAI International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communications (CICom 2021) provides solutions to various problems of this nature.

Publication

All registered papers will be submitted for publishing by Springer/EAI SICC series as the edited book and made available through SpringerLink Digital Library.

Proceedings will be submitted for inclusion in leading indexing services, such as Web of Science, EI Engineering Index (Compendex and Inspec databases), DBLP, EU Digital Library, Google Scholar, IO-Port, MathSciNet, Scopus, Zentralblatt MATH.

Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to:

• Springer Wireless Networks Journal (WINET) [IF: 2.602 (2020)]

All accepted authors are eligible to submit an extended version in a fast track of:

• EAI Endorsed Transactions on Scalable Information Systems (Open Access) – indexed in ESCI, Ei Compendex & Scopus
• EAI Endorsed Transactions on Mobile Communications and Applications (Open Access)

Additional publication opportunities:

Paper submission

Papers should be submitted through EAI ‘Confy+‘ system, and have to comply with the Springer format (see Author’s kit section).

• Regular papers should be up to 9-15 pages in length.
• Short papers should be 6-8 pages in length.

All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection. You can learn more about Community Review here.
