The Eighth International Conference on Information Science and Technology (ICIST 2018) will be held in
Cordoba, Granada, and Seville, three pearls of Andalusia in Spain during June 30-July 6, 2018, following
the successes of previous events. ICIST 2018 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists,
engineers, and educators to present the state of the art of research and applications in related fields. The
conference will feature plenary speeches given by world renowned scholars, regular sessions with broad
coverage, and special sessions focusing on popular topics.
Call for Papers and Special Sessions
Prospective authors are invited to contribute high-quality papers to ICIST2018. In addition, proposals for
special sessions within the technical scopes of the conference are solicited. Special sessions, to be organized
by internationally recognized experts, aim to bring together researchers in special focused topics. Papers
submitted for special sessions are to be peer-reviewed with the same criteria used for the contributed papers.
Researchers interested in organizing special sessions are invited to submit formal proposals to ICIST2018.
A special session proposal should include the session title, a brief description of the scope and motivation,
names, contact information and brief biographical information on the organizers.

Paper Submission
Authors are invited to submit full-length papers (8 pages maximum) by the submission deadline through the
online submission system. Special session organizers are also invited to enlist six or more papers with
cohesive topics to form special sessions. The submission of a paper implies that the paper is original and has
not been submitted under review or is not copyright-protected elsewhere and will be presented by an author
if accepted. All submitted papers will be refereed by experts in the field based on the criteria of originality,
significance, quality, and clarity. The authors of accepted papers will have an opportunity to revise their
papers and take consideration of the referees' comments and suggestions. The Proceedings has been
contracted to be included in IEEE Xplore Digital Library and will be submitted for EI indexing.
