Preface

The year 2015 is a memorable year for the International Conference on ComputationalScience and Its Applications. In 2003, the First International Conference on Compu-tational Science and Its Applications (chaired by C.J.K. Tan and M. Gavrilova) tookplace in Montreal, Canada (2003), and the following year it was hosted by A. Laganàand O. Gervasi in Assisi, Italy (2004). It then moved to Singapore (2005), Glasgow,UK (2006), Kuala-Lumpur, Malaysia (2007), Perugia, Italy (2008), Seoul, Korea(2009), Fukuoka, Japan (2010), Santander, Spain (2011), Salvador de Bahia, Brazil(2012), Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (2013), and Guimarães, Portugal (2014). Thecurrent installment of ICCSA 2015 took place in majestic Banff National Park, Banff,Alberta, Canada, during June 22–25, 2015.

The event received approximately 780 submissions from over 45 countries, eval-uated by over 600 reviewers worldwide.

Its main track acceptance rate was approximately 29.7 % for full papers. In additionto full papers, published by Springer, the event accepted short papers, poster papers,and PhD student showcase works that are published in the IEEE CPS proceedings.

It also runs a number of parallel workshops, some for over 10 years, with new onesappearing for the first time this year. The success of ICCSA is largely contributed to thecontinuous support of the computational sciences community as well as researchersworking in the applied relevant fields, such as graphics, image processing, biometrics,optimization, computer modeling, information systems, geographical sciences, physics,biology, astronomy, biometrics, virtual reality, and robotics, to name a few.

Over the past decade, the vibrant and promising area focusing on performance-drivencomputing and big data has became one of the key points of research enhancing theperformance of information systems and supported processes. In addition to high-quality research at the frontier of these fields, consistently presented at ICCSA, a numberof special journal issues are being planned following ICCSA 2015, including TCSSpringer (Transactions on Computational Sciences, LNCS).

The contribution of the International Steering Committee and the InternationalProgram Committee are invaluable in the conference success. The dedication ofmembers of these committees, the majority of whom have fulfilled this difficult role forthe last 10 years, is astounding. Our warm appreciation also goes to the invitedspeakers, all event sponsors, supporting organizations, and volunteers. Finally, wethank all the authors for their submissions making the ICCSA conference series a wellrecognized and a highly successful event year after year.
