The FedCSIS multi-conference consists of a significant number of recurring Events and it welcomes proposals for new Events until November 2, 2016. The Events can run over any span of time within the conference dates; from half-day to three days. The FedCSIS Events provide a platform for bringing together researchers, practitioners, and academia to present and discuss ideas, challenges, and potential solutions on established or emerging topics related to research and practice in computer science and information systems. The Events will be selected based on the scientific/technical interest and/or their relevance to practitioners in their topics, the clarity of the proposal in addressing the requested information, the innovativeness of the Event topics, and the fit with the FedCSIS multi-conference program. The FedCSIS 2016 - held in Gdańsk, Poland – attracted 512 papers, of which 130 were accepted as full papers (acceptance rate of approximately 25%). Some events accepted additionally short and position papers. FedCSIS 2014 full and short papers are being submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, while position papers are being published in a separate volume of the Annals of Computer Science and Information systems series (publication process will be completed by October 30, 2016). Publications As in previous years, FedCSIS preprints will be published on a USB memory stick given to FedCSIS participants. Only papers presented during the conference will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library (or will appear as position papers, published in a separate volume, which will not be submitted to the IEEE), and posted at the conference WWW site. The IEEE DL proceedings will be published with an ISBN, ISSN, IEEE Catalog and DOI numbers, under a nonexclusive copyright. Such copyright implies that Events' organizers can and, indeed, are strongly encouraged to invite extended and revised papers for post-conference publications in high-quality journals, edited volumes, etc. Position Papers volume will be published with ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers. Event Proposals Event proposals should include the following information (2 pages maximum): 1. The nature of the Event. 2. The title of the Event, a clear description and justification of the theme, and a short list of topics. 3. The complete contact information of the Event organizers, including a link to their personal websites, and an overview of previous experiences with organization of scientific events. 4.
