The 2010 International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications
(ICCSA 2010) will be held on March 23-26, 2010, at Kyushu Sangyo University, Fukuoka, Japan.
ICCSA 2010 is the next event in the series of highly successful International Conferences on
Computational Science and Its Applications, previously held in Suwon, Korea (2009), Perugia,
Italy (2008), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (2007), Glasgow, United Kingdom (2006), Singapore (2005),
Assisi, Italy (2004), Montreal, Canada (2003), and, as ICCS, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
(2002) and San Francisco (2001).
Computational Science is a main pillar of most of the present research, industrial and commercial
activities and plays a unique role in exploiting ICT innovative technologies.
The ICCSA Conference offers a real opportunity to bring together scientists of different
disciplines, discuss new issues, tackle complex problems and find advanced solutions breeding
new trends in Computational Science.
For this reason we cordially invite you to submit, either to the general sessions or to the
International
Workshops, contributions concerned with the Themes listed below as papers:
of 10 to 16 pages (Theme Papers) that, after the reviewing process, will be published in the
Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) volumes.
of 5 to 11 pages (Session Papers) that, after the reviewing process, will be published in the
IEEE Computer Society proceedings.
Papers submitted to the general sessions have to adopt the LNCS format.
Papers submitted to a given session should adopt a common format (IEEE-CS or LNCS, according
to the info
listed for each session in the Conference web page http://www.iccsa.org/sessions )

Paper Submission
---------------------
THEME PAPERS:
The submitted paper must be camera-ready, between 10 and 16 pages long and formatted according to
the LNCS rules. Please consult the URL http://www.iccsa.org/author-instructions for formatting
information and templates.
SESSION PAPERS:
The submitted paper must be camera-ready, between 5 and 11 pages long and formatted according to
the IEEE Computer Society rules. Please consult the URL http://www.iccsa.org/author-instructions
for formatting information and templates.
To submit a paper, please connect to the Submission site from the link available at the ICCSA 2010
web site. Only papers submitted through the electronic system and strictly adhering to the relevant
format will be considered for reviewing and publication.
The paper must deal with original and unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere
(copyright problems fall entirely under 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) ensuring the publication of only top quality contributions.
When a paper is accepted at least one of the authors has to register to the conference and deliver
the related talk. Failure to do so shall lead to rejection of the application to attend next year
conference and the exclusion of the paper for the current year proceedings.
