Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ICIST Conference is hosted by the biggest technical university in the Baltic States—Kaunas University of Technology (Lithuania). ICIST 2018 aims to bring together researchers, engineers, developers and practitioners from academia and industry, working in all major areas and interdisciplinary areas of Information Systems, Business Intelligence, Software Engineering and Information Technology Applications. The conference will feature original research and application papers on the theory, design and implementation of modern information systems, software systems and IT applications. In 2018, the conference will be held in Vilnius, on 4–6 October.
Selected papers that presented at the conference are invited to submit their extended versions to this Special Issue of the journal Computers. Submitted papers should be extended to the size of regular research or review articles with 50% extension of new results. All submitted papers will undergo our standard peer-review procedure. Accepted papers will be published in open access format in Computers and collected together on the Special Issue website. There are no page charges for this journal.
Please prepare and format your paper according to the Instructions for Authors. Use the LaTeX or Microsoft Word template file of the journal (both are available from the Instructions for Authors page). Manuscripts should be submitted online via our susy.mdpi.com editorial system.
