CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers 2018 (CF'18)

May 8 - 10, 2018 | Ischia, Italy | http://www.computingfrontiers.org/2018/

Early Registration Deadline: April 9, 2018

The ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers 2018 will be held May 8 - 10 in Ischia, Italy. Computing Frontiers is an eclectic, collaborative community of researchers who investigate emerging technologies in the broad field of computing: our common goal is to drive the scientific breakthroughs that transform society. Technology is experiencing revolutions in memory devices and systems, networks, electronic device production, machine learning, data analytics, cloud computing, techniques to improve power and energy efficiency, systems portability/wearability, to name but a few areas. New application domains that affect everyday life are emerging, especially in the era of highly interconnected and collaborative cyber-physical systems. Boundaries between the state-of-the-art and revolutionary innovation constitute the frontiers that mark the advances of science, engineering, and information technology.
