The 15th Int'l Conf. on Information Technology: New Generations
ITNG 2018
WWW.ITNG.INFO
April 16-18, 2018, Las Vegas, USA
(PROCEEDINGS TO BE PUBLISHED AS BOOK CHAPTERS BY SPRINGER)
Original Paper Submission Deadline: Oct. 13, 2017 (to be extended to Oct 27, 2017)
THEME:
The International Conference on Information Technology- New
Generations (ITNG) is an annual event focusing on state of
the art technologies pertaining to digital information and
communications. The applications of advanced information
technology to such domains as astronomy, biology, education,
geosciences, security and health care are among topics of
relevance to ITNG. High Performance Computing, Computer
Architectures, and Innovative methods of Computing are
examples of the related topics. Visionary ideas, theoretical
and experimental results, as well as prototypes, designs, and
tools that help the information readily flow to the user are of
special interest. The conference features keynote speakers,
the best student award, a technical open panel, and
workshops/exhibits from industry, government and academia.
PAPER SUBMISSION:
Authors should submit a 6-page version of their original and
unpublished work including 5 keywords in the IEEE format to
their respective track/session chair via the following site:

Papers that do not fit the scope of any of the existing sessions,
should be submitted to the ITNG General Track. Electronic submission
in the PDF format or Word document is mandatory. Per ITNG policy,
all papers will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers.
The criteria for paper acceptance include originality, technical
soundness, significance, and clarity. Accepted papers will be
included in the conference proceedings published by the Springer
in series named Advances in Intelligent Systems & Computing Series
and the books of the series are submitted to ISI Proceedings,
EI-Compendex, DBLP, SCOPUS, Google Scholar and Springerlink
library and online catalogs. Selected papers presented
in the conference will be considered for publication in a special
issue of an international journal.
ITNG 2018 will be soliciting submissions as either regular or short
(concise contribution) papers. At least one author of each accepted
paper must register for the conference and present the paper.
