online, 2 - 5 September, 2021

Committee

SUBMISSION DEADLINE FOR YRM - July 16th, 2021, 23:59 UCT (no extensions)

Workshop is intended for young researchers only – Engineering or MSc students – who intend to design computer systems, in the domains of, broadly understood, Artificial Intelligence or Cybersecurity.
The presentations are aimed to be practical-application-oriented – and should consist of a short theoretical introduction, accompanied by a demonstration of a system prototype. The acceptance of the participants will be based on the short description of ideas that are going to be presented/discussed, submitted by July 16th 2021 (UTC+12). The length of the description should be between 500 and 800 words long (Extended Abstract of about 2 pages). It should be formatted according to the instructions for the authors, found at the For Authors page within the FedCSIS conference portal. Presentations will be divided into topical sessions. Awards will be given to the most valuable presentation in each session. Selected presentations will be shown (in a shortened version) to the general audience of the FedCSIS conference.

Topics

Invited are proposals covering industrial applications and academic research that include, but are not limited to the following topics:

Artificial Intelligence

  • Natural Language Processing
  • Language Models
  • Machine Translation
  • Computer Vision
  • Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery
  • Neural Networks and Deep Learning
  • Reinforcement Learning
  • Web Mining and Social Networks
  • Evolutionary Algorithms and Evolutionary Computation

Cybersecurity

  • Cryptography and cryptanalysis
  • Digital right management and data protection
  • Threats and countermeasures for cybercrimes
  • Cyber and physical security infrastructures
  • Steganography and watermarking
  • Digital forensics and crime science
  • Misuse and intrusion detection
  • Cloud and big data security
  • Computer network security

Paper submission

  • Authors should submit draft controbutions (as Postscript, PDF or MSWord file). 
  • The total length of a paper should not exceed 2 pages IEEE style. IEEE style templates are available at the For Authors page.
  • Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop.
  • Extended abstracts of accepted presentations will be published (with ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers) in a volume of Annals of Computer Science and Information Systems (ACSIS) series. The volume will be entitled “Communications of FedCSIS 2021". They will not be submitted to the IEEE Xplore DL. This means that they will not be submitted to indexing in Web of Science, but will be submitted to all remaining indexing services. Current indexation information for ACSIS is available at the ACSIS WWW site.
