*** PROCEEDINGS ***
The CISIS'11 proceedings are to be published by Springer in the prestigious Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series.

*** RANKING ***
CISIS is included in the ranking of the best conferences established by the Computer Science Conference Ranking of the Computing Research and Education Association of Australasia (CORE), concretely in B category.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

CISIS aims to offer a meeting opportunity for academic and industry-related researchers belonging to the various, vast communities of Computational Intelligence, Information Security, Data Mining, and Biometry, HPC and Grid computing issues.
The need for intelligent, flexible behavior by large, complex systems, especially in mission-critical domains, is intended to be the catalyst and the aggregation stimulus for the overall event. CISIS´1a provides an interesting opportunity to present and discuss the latest theoretical advances and real-world applications in this multidisciplinary research field.


*** PAPER SUBMISSION ***

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts written in English. All submissions will be refereed by experts in the field based on originality, significance, quality and clarity; every submitted paper will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee.
Accepted papers will be included in CISIS´11 Proceedings to be published by Springer in the prestigious LNCS Series.
Papers must be prepared according to the Springer LNCS style template.
