Information Technologies, Systems and Applications: CITSA 2013 (www.2013iiisconferences.org/citsa),
and/or
• Engineering and
Technological Innovation: IMETI 2013 (www.2013iiisconferences.org/imeti).
To be held on July 9 - 12, 2013 in Orlando, Florida, USA
The deadline of papers/abstracts submissions and invited
session proposals is on *March 11th, 2013*. The deadlines for notification to
authors and camera ready upload can be found at the events web site.
-----------------------------
Deadlines for the collocated (same venue and time)
conferences and symposia can be found at http://www.2013iiisconferences.org/current-deadlines.asp.
(Check the web site for possible extension of the submission deadline).
-----------------------------
Submissions for Face-to-Face or for Virtual Participation
are both accepted. Both kinds of submissions 1) will have the same reviewing
process, 2) the accepted papers will be included in the same proceedings, and
3) authors of the best 20%-25% papers will be invited to adapt their papers for
their publication in the Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics, and Informatics
with no additional costs, i.e. the respective Article Processing Charge will be
waived for them.
-----------------------------
Details about the following issues have also been
included at the conference web site (URL given above):
• Pre- and
post-conference virtual sessions
• Virtual
participation
• Two-tier
reviewing combining double-blind and non-blind methods
• Access to
reviewers’ comments and evaluation average according to eight criteria
• Waiving the
registration fee of effective invited session organizers
• Best papers
awards
-----------------------------
With the purpose of fostering *Inter-disciplinary
Communications* participants registered at any conference or symposia can
attend any sessions of the collocated events. Registered participants will also
receive a CD containing the proceedings of all collocated events, and will have
a password to access any virtual session of the collocated events, so they can
comment any paper presented at any of the collocated events.
************************
We would also like to inform you about a conference with
similar topics to the Orlando's collocated conferences that will be held in
*Porto, Portugal* on June 30 - July 6, 2013 (International Conference on
Complexity, Cybernetics, and Informing Science and Engineering: CCISE 2013)
Deadlines are displayed at the conference web site www.2013iiisconferences.org/ccise

Motives and Main
Purpose
Complexity, Cybernetics, and Informing Science/Engineering are increasingly
being related on the conceptual, methodological, and practical dimensions. T.
Grandon Gill’s book (Informing Business: Research and Education on a Rugged
Landscape) shows the strong and important relationships between Complexity
and Informing Science (specifically academic informing), and the potentiality of
these relationships in supporting the integration of academic activities:
Research, Education, and Consulting or real Life Problem Solving. On the other
hand, the concepts and tools of Cybernetics (Communication and Control) are
providing an increasingly effective support for more adequate integrative
processes in the context of Informing Science and Engineering, as well as in the
context of relating academic activities, more effective and synergistically,
among themselves and with professional practice and Society at large.

The purpose of the Organizing Committee of the International Conference on
Complexity, Cybernetics, and Informing Science and Engineering: CCISE 2013 is to
bring together scholars and professionals from the three fields, Complexity,
Cybernetics, and Informing Science/Engineering (including scholars/professionals
in their supporting tools and technologies) in order to promote and foster
inter-disciplinary communication and interactions among them; oriented to foster
the formation of the intellectual humus required for inter-disciplinary
synergies, inter-domain cross-fertilization, and the production of creative
analogies. Consequently, formal disciplinary oriented breakout sessions will be
complemented with interdisciplinary presentations and informal conversational
sessions.
There are many good disciplinary, specific and focused
conferences in any one of the major themes of CCISE 2013. There are also good
general conferences, which have a wider scope and are more comprehensive.
Each one of these kinds of conferences has its typical audience. CCISE 2013
Organizing Committee purpose is to bring together both kinds of audiences, so
participants with a disciplinary and focused research will be able to interact
with participants from other related disciplines for interdisciplinary
communication and potential inter-disciplinary collaborative research.
