MACIS 2013 - Fifth International Conference on
Mathematical Aspects of Computer and Information Sciences
Nanning, China, December 11-13, 2013

CALL FOR PAPERS

MACIS is a series of conferences where foundational research on theoretical and
practical problems of mathematics for computing and information processing may
be presented and discussed. MACIS also addresses experimental and case studies,
scientific and engineering computation, design and implementation of algorithms
and software systems, and applications of mathematical methods and tools to
outstanding and emerging problems in applied computer and information sciences.
Each conference focuses on two or three themes.

The topics for MACIS 2013 fall into the following tracks:

- Constraints and Combinations
- Cryptography and Information Security
- Data Modeling and Analysis

See the end of this call for a detailed list of topics.


SUBMISSION

Potential participants of MACIS 2013 are invited to submit extended abstracts
(3-4 pages) or full papers describing their work to be presented at the
conference. The submitted extended abstracts and full papers will be reviewed by
members of the Program Committee (PC) for soundness and relevance to the
conference. Submission of original research papers is encouraged, while
published material and work in progress will also be considered for presentation
at the conference. Electronic submissions are strongly preferred using
EasyChair:

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=macis2013 <http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=macis2013>

Accepted extended abstracts and full papers will be printed for distribution at
the conference. Authors of the extended abstracts and full papers accepted for
presentation at the conference will be invited to submit their full and/or
revised papers for publication in special issues of Mathematics in Computer
Science (MCS - http://www.cc4cm.org/mcs <http://www.cc4cm.org/mcs>) by Birkhaeuser/Springer after the
meeting. The submitted papers will be formally reviewed by PC members and
external referees according to the refereeing procedure of MCS.
