Call for Papers

HICSS conferences are devoted to the most relevant advances in the information, computer, and system sciences, and encompass developments in both theory and practice. Accepted papers may be theoretical, conceptual, tutorial or descriptive in nature. Those selected for presentation will be published in the Conference Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society.

Submissions must not have been previously published or be under submission elsewhere; all submissions undergo a double-blind peer referee process.
