2018 National Conference of Theoretical Computer Science
（NCTCS2018）Call for Research Papers
National Conference of Theoretical Computer Science（NCTCS）has become the
main academic activities in the area of theoretical computer science and artificial
intelligence. Up until 2018, NCTCS has been successfully held over 20 cities and for
35 times. It provides a platform for scholars in theoretical computer science or related
areas to exchange ideas and do cooperation.
Sponsored by the China Computer Forum (CCF), NCTCS 2018 is hosted by the
CCF Theoretical Computer Science Committee and Institute of Theoretical Computer Science, School of Information Management and Engineering, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics (SUFE). It will be held on October 13 to October 14, 2018 in Shanghai, China.
The conference will invite researchers
with high reputation in the field of theoretical computer science domestically and
internationally to give keynote speech, carry out a wide range of academic activities
and introduce the recent advanced research results.
NCTCS2018 calls for high quality research papers, and requirements are as
follows:
1. To further improve the academic quality, NCTCS2018 will continue the spirit of
previous NCTCSs. In addition to calling for papers unpublished or not willing to
publish in other Journals or Conferences, we continue to solicit papers published in
world-class academic Journals or top Conferences (Please indicate the origin of your
paper, after acceptance, we will invite the authors to give presentation in NCTCS2018,
but the paper will not be included in the NCTCS2018 Proceedings).
2.Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
（1）Algorithms and Complexity
（2）Algorithm Designing
（3）Software Theory and Method
（4）Data Science and Machine Learning Theory
（5）Web Science Base Theory
（6）Parallel and Distributed Computing
（7）Computational Model: Quantum computing, computational economics,
bioinformatics, social computing, cloud computing, etc.
3.Submission guidelines
The conference will accept both Chinese and English papers.
Accepted English Papers will be published in the proceedings with Springer in their Communications in Computer and Information Science series(EI indexed).
Accepted Chinese papers will be published in Journal of Huazhong University of
Science and Technology (Natural Science Edition) (EI Indexed), Journal of Frontiers
of Computer Science and Technology, Computer Engineering and Science, Computer
Science, or Computer Digit Engineering.
The Program Committee will select excellent Chinese papers (student as the first
author) to Journal of Computer Research and Development, and excellent English
papers to be extended and recommended to SCI indexed Journal (Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, IF: 2.111).
