AIMS & SCOPE
 
The SITIS conference is dedicated to research on the technologies used to
represent, share and process information in various forms, ranging from
signal, image, and multimedia data to traditional structured data and
semi-structured data found in the web. SITIS spans two inter-related
research domains that increasingly play a key role in connecting systems
across network centric environments to allow distributed computing and
information sharing. SITIS 2018 aims to provide a forum for high quality
presentations on research activities centered on three main tracks and
thirteen workshops.

Tracks

* SIVT - Signal Image & Vision Technologies
The focus of the track is on recent developments in digital image and signal
processing, and pays particular attention to evolutions in image analysis,
audiovisual signal processing, coding and authentication, and retrieval
techniques.

* I-WeCA - Intelligent Web Computing and Applications
The focus of the track is on emerging and novel concepts, architectures and
methodologies for information management, including the semantic web, big
data, and cloud computing. Finally, social networks have grown rapidly in
size and have witnessed a popular expansion to reach billions of users,
providing a suitable space for sharing data, interacting with other users
and forming communities with common interests.

* LHNA - Large, Heterogeneous Networks and their Applications
The track aims at promoting original and unpublished research works covering
emerging and novel concepts, technologies, applications for categories
related to large and heterogeneous networks. This includes issues related to
radio (4/5G) and large wireless networks, traffic management, complex
graphs, semantic Web, Big Data, and network security.
 
Workshops

* CITIMA - Computational Intelligence Techniques for Industrial and Medical
Applications
* COMI - Colour and Multispectral Imaging
* DARWiN - Distributed, Autonomic and Robust Wireless Networks

* NAMDAC - Numerical Algorithms and Methods for Data Analysis and
Classification
* OBIS - Open Business Intelligence Systems
* QUAMUS - Quality of Multimedia Services
* UBIO - Ubiquitous implicit BIOmetrics and health signals monitoring for
person-centric applications
* VICTA - Visions on Internet of Cultural Things and Applications
