Call for papers
Galatasaray University, Istanbul, Türkiye
June 30-July 3, 2025
The ICCSA 2025 conference will be organized in Istanbul, Türkiye. Virtual registration (with a reduced registration fee) is still possible, but this is to facilitate researchers suffering from critical economic and political situations.
ICCSA 2025 will be the next event in a series of highly successful International Conferences on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA), previously held in Hanoi - Vietnam (2024), Athens - Greece (2023), Malaga - Spain (2022), in Cagliari - Italy (2021), online (2020, as an online-only event due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions), Saint Petersburg - Russia (2019), Melbourne - Australia (2018), Trieste - Italy (2017), Beijing - China (2016), Banff - Canada (2015), Guimaraes - Portugal (2014), Ho Chi Minh City - Vietnam (2013), Salvador da Bahia - Brazil (2012), Santander - Spain (2011), Fukuoka - Japan (2010), Suwon - Korea (2009), Perugia - Italy (2008), Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia (2007), Glasgow - United Kingdom (2006), Singapore - Singapore(2005), Assisi - Italy (2004), Montreal - Canada (2003), and, as ICCS, in Amsterdam - The Netherlands (2002) and San Francisco - USA (2001).
Computational science is central to most current research, industrial, and commercial activities and uniquely exploits innovative ICT technologies.
The ICCSA Conference offers an opportunity to bring together scientists of different disciplines, discuss new issues, tackle complex problems, and find advanced solutions that breed new trends in computational science.
Submitted papers will be subject to stringent peer review by at least three experts and carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and be published (authorization is still pending) by Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science. The authors of a selected number of top-quality papers will be requested to extend their papers for further review and publication as special issues in highly recognized international journals.
ICCSA 2025 accepts paper submissions in the following categories: General Tracks and Workshops' Full Papers, General Tracks and Workshops' Short Papers and PhD Showcase Papers. The details for each paper submission category can be found at the URL https://iccsa.org/instructions-for-authors, and the list of workshops can be found at the URL https://iccsa.org/workshops.

Paper Submission
To submit a paper, please connect to the Submission site from the link available at the ICCSA 2025 website: https://ess.iccsa.org.
Only papers submitted through the electronic system and strictly adhering to the relevant format will be considered for reviewing and publication.
The submission may fall into the following categories: General Tracks and Workshops' Full Papers, General Tracks and Workshops' Short Papers, and PHD Showcase Papers.
GENERAL TRACKS AND WORKSHOPS' FULL PAPERS
The submitted paper must be between 12 and 18 pages long for LNCS publication and should be formatted according to the LNCS rules.
Please consult the URL https://iccsa.org/instructions-for-authors for formatting information and templates.
SHORT PAPERS
Reporting preliminary results of ongoing research. The submitted paper must be between 8 and 11 pages long and formatted according to LNCS rules. The Short Papers will be presented during the conference and published by LNCS.
PHD SHOWCASE PAPERS
Reporting ongoing research that has already achieved significant results, primarily by PhD students and junior researchers. The submitted paper must be between 10 to 18 pages long and formatted according to LNCS rules. The PhD Showcase Papers will be presented during the conference and will be published by LNCS.
Each paper must deal with original and unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere (copyright problems fall entirely under the authors' responsibility). Each paper will be reviewed by at least three experts in the relevant field (acceptance rate was 28% in 2005, 26% in 2006, 28% in 2007, 29% in 2008, 30% in 2009, 29% in 2021, 2011, 2012, and 30% in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024) according to the Single Blind review method, ensuring the publication of only top quality contributions.
When a paper is accepted, at least one of the authors must register for the conference and deliver the related talk. Failure to do so will result in the application being rejected to attend next year's conference and the paper being excluded from the current year's proceedings.
Workshops
Refer to the web page https://iccsa.org/workshops for the updated list of Workshops
When submitting your contribution to one of the above-listed Workshops, please select the correct entry in the list box shown in the Abstract, Paper and Camera Ready submission forms.
An author can change the workshop associated with a submitted paper until the submission deadline by updating the paper in the system and selecting the proper Workshop from the list.
Important Dates

Proceedings
The proceedings of the Conference will be published by Springer (Lecture Notes in Computer Science series).
In particular:
1. The selected top-quality full papers from General Tracks will appear in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Conference Volumes Set, and those of the Workshops will appear in the Workshops Volumes Set (paper length: 12-18 pages).
2. The selected top-quality short papers from General Tracks will appear in a separate section of the LNCS Conference Volumes Set, and those of the Workshops will appear in a separate section of the Workshops Volumes Set series (paper length: 8-11 pages)
3. The selected top-quality PHD showcase papers from General Tracks will appear in a separate section of the LNCS Conference Volumes Set, and those of the Workshops will appear in a separate section of the Workshops Volumes Set series (paper length: 10-18 pages).
After the conference, the authors of a selected number of top-quality papers will be requested to extend their papers for publication as special issues in appropriate international journals.
Scopus, EI Engineering Index will index the proceedings, Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (included in ISI Web of Science), and several other indexing services. The papers will contain linked references, XML versions and citable DOI numbers.
All reviewed papers will be checked against Plagiarism and Generative AI.
