Call for Papers
Thuyloi University, Hanoi, Vietnam
July 1-4, 2024
The ICCSA 2024 conference will be organized in Hanoi, Vietnam. Virtual registration (with a reduced registration fee) is still possible but in the spirit of facilitating researchers suffering from very critical economic and political situations. Besides online sessions, there will be pure on-site sessions with presential participation.
ICCSA 2024 will be the next event in a series of highly successful International Conferences on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA), previously held in a blended form in Athens - Greece (2023), Malaga - Spain (2022), in Cagliari - Italy (2021), online (2020, as an online-only event due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions), Saint Petersburg - Russia (2019), Melbourne - Australia (2018), Trieste - Italy (2017), Beijing - China (2016), Banff - Canada (2015), Guimaraes - Portugal (2014), Ho Chi Minh City - Vietnam (2013), Salvador da Bahia - Brazil (2012), Santander - Spain (2011), Fukuoka - Japan (2010), Suwon - Korea (2009), Perugia - Italy (2008), Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia (2007), Glasgow - United Kingdom (2006), Singapore - Singapore(2005), Assisi - Italy (2004), Montreal - Canada (2003), and, as ICCS, in Amsterdam - The Netherlands (2002) and San Francisco - USA (2001).
Computational Science is a central pillar of most of the present research, industrial and commercial activities and plays a unique role in exploiting innovative ICT technologies.
The ICCSA Conference offers an opportunity to bring together scientists of different disciplines, discuss new issues, tackle complex problems and find advanced solutions breeding new trends in Computational Science.
Submitted papers will be subject to stringent peer review by at least three experts and carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Accepted papers will appear in the Conference proceedings to be published (authorization is still pending) by Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science. The authors of a selected number of top-quality papers will be requested to extend their papers for further review and publication as special issues in highly recognized international journals.
ICCSA 2024 accepts paper submissions in the following categories: General Tracks and Workshops' Full Papers, General Tracks and Workshops' Short Papers and PhD Showcase Papers. The details for each paper submission category can be found at the URL https://iccsa.org/instructions-for-authors and the list of Workshops at the URL: https://www.iccsa.org/workshops.

Paper Submission
To submit a paper, please connect to the Submission site from the link available at the ICCSA 2024 website: https://ess.iccsa.org.
Only papers submitted through the electronic system and strictly adhering to the relevant format will be considered for reviewing and publication.
The submission may fall into the following categories: General Tracks and Workshops' Full Papers, General Tracks and Workshops' Short Papers, and PHD Showcase Papers.
GENERAL TRACKS AND WORKSHOPS' FULL PAPERS
The submitted paper must be between 12 to 18 pages long for LNCS publication,, and should be formatted according to the LNCS rules.
Please consult the URL https://iccsa.org/instructions-for-authors for formatting information and templates.
SHORT PAPERS
Reporting preliminary results of ongoing research. The submitted paper must be between 8 and 11 pages long and formatted according to LNCS rules. The Short Papers will be presented during the conference and will be published by LNCS.
PHD SHOWCASE PAPERS
Reporting ongoing research already achieving significant results and primarily carried out by PhD students and junior researchers. The submitted paper must be between 10 to 18 pages long and formatted according to LNCS rules. The PhD Showcase Papers will be presented during the conference and will be published by LNCS.
CPS Papers
The submitted paper must be between 6 to 14 pages long for Conference Publishin Services (CPS) publication and should be formatted according to the CPS rules.
Each paper must deal with original and unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere (copyright problems fall entirely under the responsibility of the authors). Each paper will be reviewed by at least three experts in the relevant field (acceptance rate was 28% in 2005, 26% in 2006 and 28% in 2007, 29% in 2008, 30% in 2009, 29% in 2021, 2011, 2012, and 30% in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022) according to the Single Blind review method, ensuring the publication of only top quality contributions.
When a paper is accepted, at least one of the authors has to register for the conference and deliver the related talk. Failure to do so shall lead to the rejection of the application to attend next year's conference and the exclusion of the paper from the current year's proceedings.

2. Short papers will appear in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science ( LNCS) series (paper length: 8-11 pages)
3. PHD Showcase Papers will appear in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science ( LNCS) series (paper length: 10-18 pages).
For a selected number of top-quality papers, after the Conference, the authors will be requested to extend the paper in order to be published as special issues in appropriate international journals.
The proceedings will be indexed by Scopus, EI Engineering Index, Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (included in ISI Web of Science), and several other indexing services. The papers will contain linked references, XML versions and citable DOI numbers.
All reviewed papers will be checked against Plagiarism and Generative AI.
Conference policy
