C3S2E 2015 :
Eighth International C* Conference on Computer Science & Software Engineering

Keio University Yokohama, Japan and On-line on ConfSys
July 13-15. 2015

C3S2E 2015 Call for Papers/Participation/Track(Targeted Session) Proposal

C3S2E15[*] is the eighth in a series of annual international
conferences addressing the needs of the academic community in
computing science and software engineering. The objective of
C3S2E is to meet annually to exchange ideas on current issues and
focus on new challenges from both the theoretical and application
aspects of CSE. C3S2E encourages the participation of
practitioners from governmental and non-governmental agencies,
industry, and academia not only from CSE but also from other
disciplines with the potential of collaboration. The meeting
offers participants a chance to broaden their insight into the
multi-facets of CSE and emerging technologies while exploring R&D
ideas in other disciplines as well, where CSE can make meaningful
contributions.


C3S2E invites quality papers describing original ideas and new
findings on applied technological and theoretical aspects of CSE
or in other disciplines with potential for applying and extending
the CSE horizons. In particular we welcome submissions describing
work on integrating new technologies into products and
applications, on experiences with existing and novel techniques,
and on the identification of unsolved challenges. We consider
this meeting to be an unique and important forum to discuss
insights into applying and extending all aspects of computing and
software engineering methodologies in novel situations.

This year C3S2E2015 is co-located with IDEAS2015.

Track(Targeted Session) Proposal

As in the past, C3S3E 2015 will include tracks (targeted session) on
current topics of interest to the community. If you and your colleagues
would like to include such a track, please contact us ASAP (before Feb 15,
2015). Please include the topics, the track chair and the proposed addition
to the program committee to handle the submissions for the track. The
submission would be via the C3S2E 2015 pages on ConfSys.

Invited Talks

A number of invited speakers would round up the final program of C3S2E'15.

Conference Venue

Taking into account, the increasing cost of registration and
travel costs, as well as the CO2 contribution due to the movement
of people over large distances, we have decided to experiment
with holding this meeting with both a 'real' and a 'on-line' part
without sacrificing the quality. Hence, the paper submission and
review process would be as in the past. All papers would be
reviewed by the program committee. In the past there were over
3.5 reviews paper paper and this practice would be continued.


The meeting would be held at the venue as per schedule. However,
for those authors whose budget and/or conscience dictate that
they not travel, we offer to have their presentation available on
line. Such presentations would include audio presentations along
with the traditional slides. It must also have full contact
information(email, phone number and Skype or similar address).


Conference Publication

The conference proceedings will be published by ACM. A version of the
proceedings to be distributed to the attendees would be prepared BytePress

Note to authors who have issues with travel due to concern regarding carbon
dioxide foot print, travel budget restrictions or last minute personal
issues:

Even though it would be a shame not to be able to meet your colleagues, we
would allow the possibility of making your presentation via appropriate
pre-recorded media and availability on Firefox hello or skype to interact with those
present in Keio University.
