SUBMISSION PROCEDURE
Authors are invited to submit research and application papers representing original, previously unpublished work. Papers should be submitted in PDF or Word format. Submissions must conform to Springer's format available at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0 and should not exceed 12 pages (including all text, figures, references and appendices).

at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ciia2015

Submissions which do not conform to the LNCS format and/or which do exceed 12 pages will be rejected without reviews. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition.
Duplicate submissions are not allowed. A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if it is submitted to other conferences/workshops/journals or it has been already accepted to be published in other conferences/workshops/journals. Duplicate submissions thus will be automatically rejected without reviews. Submissions require explicit consent from all listed authors.
