The goal of the conference is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange novel ideas, results, experiences and work-in-process on all aspects of computer and information technology. CIT has become a major platform for researchers and industry practitioners from different fields of computer and information technology. Each year, CIT attendees appreciate and benefit from multidisciplinary exchanges in computer and information technology. In previous years, CIT has attracted many high quality research papers spanning over the various aspects of information technology, computing science and computer engineering. These papers highlight foundational work that strives to push beyond limits of existing computer technologies, including experimental efforts, innovative systems, and investigations that identify weaknesses in existing IT services. IEEE CIT is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange novel ideas, results, experiences and work-in-process on all aspects of computer and information technology. Scope and Topics Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Information Technology - Blockchain - Cloud Computing - Data Science and Systems - Signal Processing - Networking and Internet of Things - Reliability, Security, Privacy and Trust - Applications, Business and Social Issues - Database and Data Management - Microwave and Radar - System Software and Software Engineering - Pattern Recognition, Data Mining and Artificial Intelligence - Information Technology for Biomedicine and Smart Health - Wireless Communications - Mobile Multimedia Communications - Wireless and Mobile Computing - Future Internet - Cellular Network and 5G - Social Computing and Social Network - Web Technologies Submission Guidelines Submissions must include an abstract, keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 8 pages for main conference, including tables and figures in IEEE CS format. The template files for LATEX or WORD can be downloaded here. All paper submissions must represent original and unpublished work. Each submission will be peer reviewed by at least three program committee members. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference and present the work. Submit your paper(s) in PDF file at the submission site: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2019/cit/submission.htm. Publications Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS Press. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers may be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS and EI after the conference. Distinguished papers will be selected for special issues in Future Generation Computer Systems, Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing, Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience.
