The Fast Abstract symposium seeks to bring together students, faculty, and researchers working in computer software and applications and related fields. A Fast Abstract is a lightly reviewed, two-page article that may be presenting new ideas or work in progress, or opinions that address any issue relevant to computer software and applications and related fields. We also welcome contributions that may have thought provoking ideas based on theory or application or development experience, and may have initial or proof of concept results. The presenter will have the opportunity to discuss their research idea, methodology, and results with other peer researchers and receive useful guidance and feedback to refine their ideas or towards the completion of the research and potential initiation of research careers.

SUBMISSIONS

Authors are encouraged to submit summaries of their original work (not published or submitted elsewhere). Here is the submission link: http://fa2016.compsac.info/. All submissions must be written in English with a maximum of two pages in 10-point font using the IEEE conference proceedings format. Each submission should include the title of the paper, the name and affiliation of each author, a 150-word abstract, and up to 6 keywords.
Evaluation of submissions will be based on their originality, significance of potential contribution to the field, technical merit, presentation quality, and adherence to abstract submission guidelines. All accepted papers will be published in the electronic COMPSAC proceedings.

At least one of the authors of every accepted fast abstract should register to attend the conference and present his/her article. Failure to do so will result in exclusion of the accepted papers from the COMPSAC 2016 proceedings.
