Call for Papers (pdf)

Following the successes of previous events, The 9th International Conference on Information Science and Technology (ICIST 2019) will be held in Hulunbuir (Hulunbeier), Inner Mongolia, China during August 2-5, 2019. Situated in northeastern China near the borders of Russia and Mongolia, Hulunbuir features picturesque grassland and nomadic culture (an entry of the tentative list of UNESCO World Heritages).

ICIST 2019 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists, engineers, and educators to present the state of the art of research and applications in related fields. The conference will feature plenary speeches given by world renowned scholars, regular sessions with broad coverage, and special sessions focusing on popular topics.

Prospective authors are invited to contribute high-quality papers to ICIST 2019. In addition, proposals for special sessions within the technical scopes of the conference are solicited. Special sessions, to be organized by internationally recognized experts, aim to bring together researchers in special focused topics. Papers submitted for special sessions are to be peer-reviewed with the same criteria used for the contributed papers. Researchers interested in organizing special sessions are invited to submit formal proposals to ICIST 2019. A special session proposal should include the session title, a brief description of the scope and motivation, names, contact information and brief biographical information on the organizers.

Authors are invited to submit full-length papers (nominal number of pages is 10) by the submission deadline through the online submission system. Special session organizers are also invited to enlist six or more papers with cohesive topics to form special sessions. The submission of a paper implies that the paper is original and has not been submitted under review or is not copyright-protected elsewhere and will be presented by an author if accepted.

All submitted papers will be refereed by experts in the field based on the criteria of originality, significance, quality, and clarity. The authors of accepted papers will have an opportunity to revise their papers and take consideration of the referees' comments and suggestions. The Proceedings has been contracted to be included in IEEE Xplore Digital Library and will be submitted for EI indexing （IEEE Catalog number: CFP1942M-CDR and ISBN:978-1-7281-2105-5).
