THEME : The Inclusive Internet
The Internet has revolutionized and changed the way we communicate, socialize, entertain, access information and conduct business. It has evolved into a pervasive ecosystem of connected computers, mobile devices, sensors, home appliances, and a variety of other gadgets. This evolution has led to a deep intertwining of the physical, social and digital worlds, raising new research agendas and challenging our understanding of the requirements for a vastly interconnected world. The advent of Web 2.0, social networks, open API's, mash-ups and cloud computing are empowering Internet users into becoming Internet "makers." Anyone and everyone is included, free to contribute content and even services. The frontier of the Internet no longer stops at the shores of large corporations, small businesses, and online stores. It has expanded to include the presence and contributions of virtually all mankind. The symposium provides a forum for researchers and practitioners from the academic, industrial, public and governmental sectors to share their latest innovations on Internet technologies and applications.

Symposium : Symposium paper submission will be done electronically on the SAINT web. Symposium Papers will be reviewed by at least three reviewers, and SAINT Symposium has been keeping its acceptance ratio less than about 30% from the beginning.

Workshops : Full- and/or half-day workshop proposals related to SAINT theme are solicited. Workshop proposals should be submitted to SAINT Workshops Chairs. After the review of proposals, the accepted Workshop Call For Papers will be announced on the SAINT web page. Workshop paper submission will also be done electronically on the SAINT web, and be reviewed by each Workshop’s Program Committee, taking account of a reasonable acceptance ratio.

Publications : The Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. At least one full registration is required for publication of Proceedings. Accepted papers will be indexed through INSPEC and EI Index. Any paper will not be included in the IEEE-CS digital library if no presentation is made without reasonable notification. There is a plan to invite several authors to provide revised papers for a special issue of IEEE-CS IT Professional.
