THEME : The Inclusive Internet
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Internet has revolutionized and changed the way we communicate,
socialize, entertain, access information and conduct business. It has
evolved into a pervasive ecosystem of connected computers, mobile devices,
sensors, home appliances, and a variety of other gadgets. This evolution
has led to a deep intertwining of the physical, social and digital worlds,
raising new research agendas and challenging our understanding of the
requirements for a vastly interconnected world. The advent of Web 2.0,
social networks, open API's, mash-ups and cloud computing are empowering
Internet users into becoming Internet "makers." Anyone and everyone is
included, free to contribute content and even services. The frontier of the
Internet no longer stops at the shores of large corporations, small
businesses, and online stores. It has expanded to include the presence and
contributions of virtually all mankind. The symposium provides a forum for
researchers and practitioners from the academic, industrial, public and
governmental sectors to share their latest innovations on Internet
technologies and applications.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Symposium
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Symposium paper submission will be done electronically. Information for
prospective authors, including paper format and instructions can be found
on the SAINT Web page. Symposium Papers will be reviewed by at least three
reviewers, and SAINT Symposium has been keeping its acceptance ratio less
than about 30% from the beginning.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Workshops
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Full- and/or half-day workshop proposals related to SAINT theme are
solicited. Workshop proposals should be submitted to Workshops Chairs.
After the review of proposals, the accepted Workshop Call For Papers will
be announced on the SAINT web page.
Workshop papers will be sent to each Workshop's Organizers and should be
reviewed by each Workshop's Program Committee, taking account of a
reasonable acceptance ratio.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint COMPSAC/SAINT Doctoral Symposium
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The joint Doctoral Symposium will provide an international forum for
graduate students to interact with faculty mentors and other researchers.
It will strive to provide constructive guidance for completion of the
proposed research and motivation for a research career.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publications
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. At
least one full registration is required for publication of Proceedings.
Accepted papers will be indexed through INSPEC and EI Index. Any paper will
not be included in the IEEE-CS digital library if no presentation is made
without reasonable notification. There is a plan to invite several authors
to provide revised papers for a special issue of IEEE-CS IT Professional.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Message to Industry
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The conference has been one of the major forums to discuss the state of the
art Internet-related technologies for not only academia but also industry.
COMPSAC and SAINT are considering an opportunity where industry will be
able to make an appeal of new technologies. Please keep a close watch on
the SAINT web page.
