CALL FOR PAPERS

Advances in Information Systems and Technologies (AIST'21; 
https://fedcsis.org/2021/aist)

Organized within 2021 Federated Conference on Computer Science and 
Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS'21; IEEE #52320)

************************* COVID-19 Information *************************

While we have planned the 2021 conference to take place in Sofia, 
Bulgaria, slow progress in fighting the global pandemic has forced us to 
switch to the fully online mode. Therefore, we plan to organize FedCSIS 
2022 in Sofia, and hope that by that time COVID will be over, and we 
will be able to meet in person.

FOR PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINES SEE THE BOTTOM OF THIS MESSAGE


AIST is a FedCSIS conference track aiming at integrating and creating 
synergy between disciplines of information technology, information 
systems, and social sciences. The track addresses the issues relevant to 
information technology and necessary for practical, everyday needs of 
business, other organizations and society at large. This track takes a 
socio-technical view on information systems and, at the same time, 
relates to ethical, social and political issues raised by information 
systems.

AIST provides a forum for academics and professionals to share the 
latest developments and advances in the knowledge and practice of these 
fields. It seeks new studies in many disciplines to foster a growing 
body of conceptual, theoretical, experimental, and applied research that 
could inform design, deployment and usage choices for information 
systems and technology within business and public organizations as well 
as households.
We call for papers covering a broad spectrum of topics which bring 
together sciences of information systems, information technologies, and 
social sciences, i.e., economics, management, business, finance, and 
education. The track bridges the diversity of approaches that 
contributors bring to the conference. The main topics covered are:

     • Advances in information systems and technologies for business;
     • Advances in information systems and technologies for governments;
     • Advances in information systems and technologies for education;
     • Advances in information systems and technologies for healthcare;
     • Advances in information systems and technologies for smart 
cities; and
     • Advances in information systems and technologies for sustainable 
development.

AIST invites papers covering the most recent innovations, current 
trends, professional experiences and new challenges in the several 
perspectives of information systems and technologies, i.e. design, 
implementation, stabilization, continuous improvement, and 
transformation. It seeks new works from researchers and practitioners in 
business intelligence, big data, data mining, machine learning, cloud 
computing, mobile applications, social networks, internet of thing, 
sustainable technologies and systems, blockchain, etc.

Extended versions of high-marked papers presented at technical sessions 
of AIST 2015-2020 have been published with Springer in volumes of 
Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing: LNBIP 243, LNBIP 277, 
LNBIP 311, LNBIP 346, LNBIP 380, and LNBIP 413.

Extended versions of selected papers presented during AIST 2021 will be 
published in Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing series 
(LNBIP, Springer).
