ISWS2018 & PUBLICATION

ISWS2018 welcomes the submission of late-breaking papers or position papers, which do not need to present the completed research work necessarily. Some papers submitted to SCIS&ISIS2018 may be accepted as ones of ISWS2018. The submissions will be peer-reviewed for originality and scientific quality. All accepted papers will be published in USB proceedings, but not covered by IEEE Xplore® digital library nor Ei Compendex.
