Topics, Deadlines and Program Committee

1. Topics

Cloud computing has opened new horizons in the group work, with the possibility of increasing the quality of the products and/or services, in very short timeframes and with lower costs. Besides, there is a reduction of the costs for the maintenance of servers and/or the updating of the versions of the operative services, special applications, etc., with which the local and international users work daily inside a private, public or mixed institution. The safety and privacy of the data which are in the cloud constitutes a key element in the reliability of the interchange of original ideas for the development of avant-garde projects.

The new virtual communities which will be born from these clouds will see the integration and confederation of the diverse models of networks that have existed: intranet, extranet, internet, etc., with the novel micro computing and multimedia mobile phone devices. Here are some of the main goals, which we intend to discuss in this Second International Conference on "Horizons for Information Architecture, Security and Cloud Intelligent Technology (HIASCIT 2014): Programming, Software Quality, Online Communities, Cyber Behaviour and Business".

This synergy of people and tasks will generate new jobs across the whole planet, thus bolstering the notion of the expansion of communicability among the potential users. However, it is necessary to establish balances and controls in the behavior patterns of certain users, who with mercantilist purposes try to get the utmost personal profit with the least effort. It is also necessary to analyze in a neutral way the advantages and disadvantages of the concentration of digital information. Therefore, the quality metrics stemming from software engineering and other disciplines of the social sciences may constitute a set of attributes and quantitative rules in the online and offline communication processes which must be respected by everybody.

Many conferences are focussed on specific aspects of computer science, telecommunications, multimedia, etc., and bring together leading experts in a particular field or sometimes on a specific technology. At such large conferences students are often marginalized or relegated to poster sessions. The conferences, workshops, symposiums, etc., are not a big scale and aim to promote dialogue between established professors and graduate students working on new directions. Hence topics from the whole range of human-computer interaction, multimedia, software, design, etc. are welcomed. Last year’s symposiums, workshops, conferences, etc., organized by ALAIPO and AInCI, for instance, included papers on the topics (see below the alphabetical order). An extensive listing connotes and reflects the requirement and also skill necessary to find intersection zones of the disciplines among the different domains, fields, and specialities; which at the same time potentially boosts and merges the formerly different scientific views.

In other words, the current international conference is aimed at all the professionals, experts, students, professors, researchers, businessmen, etc. hailing from the formal sciences and the factual sciences. This is another of the reasons why, when we refer currently to the architecture of information, it is claimed that it is “an art and a science” to find the best possible solutions to the problems posed, from the programming of efficient and intelligent applications down to the management of the online communities. In this sense, cloud computing can increase the business in each one of the environments of the human being, going from multimedia mobile phone, federated database system, business intelligence online, etc., to theory and applications of cryptology, intrusion detection, methods and techniques for stopping attacks in social networking, just to mention a few examples. In short, we focus on the following main and secondary subjects, which do not exclude others of great current or future interest, alphabetically listed in the following way:

All contributions –papers, workshops, demos and doctoral consortium, should be of high quality, originality, clarity, significance and impact. Besides, all submitted papers will be reviewed by a double-blind (at least three reviewers), non-blind, and participative peer review. These three kinds of review will support the selection process of those that will be accepted for their presentation at the international conference.  Authors of accepted papers who registered in the conference can have access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers, so they can accordingly improve the final version of their papers.
