Computational Intelligence in Networks and Systems (CINS'10)
Thessaloniki, Greece, 24-26 November 2010.
in conjunction with the 2nd International Conference on Intelligent Networking and Collaborative Systems (INCoS 2010).
Workshop theme
Computational intelligence serves as an alternative to classical artificial intelligence, relying on heuristic algorithms such as fuzzy systems, neural networks and evolutionary computation. In addition, computational intelligence also embraces techniques that use swarm intelligence, artificial immune systems, and others, to combine elements of learning, adaptation, evolution and fuzzy logic to create intelligent programs.
In a networking environment, computational intelligence techniques can automate difficult monitoring and management processes. Advances are led by the development of computer systems and networks that are capable of self-management, in order to overcome the rapidly growing complexity of systems.
Examples are automatic configuration of components, reactive or proactive design of recovery plans, automatic discovery, correction of faults, automatic monitoring and control of resources to ensure optimal functioning with respect to the defined requirements.
This workshop intends to provide a forum for researchers and developers of intelligent systems and networks, working on issues associated with the incorporation of computational intelligence techniques. The workshop has emphasis on establishing a state of the art for intelligent system and network research, identifying challenges and discussing solutions.

Paper submission
Authors are invited to prepare their papers following the typical 6-page IEEE 8.5 two-column format. IEEE CPS templates to be found at:
Submitted papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical, experimental or application nature, or be unique experience reports. Papers should contain up to 5 keywords. Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and soundness, and will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers.
Before submitting authors should carefully check that their PDF file is compatible to the IEEE CPS format. The authors should submit their papers in PDF format only using the EasyChair conference submission system available at:
"EasyChair Login Page for INCoS 2010".
Proceedings
The INCoS 2010 proceedings will be published by IEEE Conference Publishing Service in the form of CD-ROM with ISBN, and will be accessible on-line. All accepted submissions (regular, workshop, special session, poster, PhD forum paper) will be included in the proceedings of the conference. All accepted papers must be accompanied by a full paid registration by at least one of the authors in order to be included in the proceedings.
