The tenth IEEE International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science (RCIS) aims at providing an international forum for scientists, researchers, engineers and developers from a wide range of information science areas to exchange ideas and approaches in this evolving field. At RCIS 2016, among other regular topics a special attention will be given to the special topic “Information science for a socially and environmentally responsible world”.

While presenting research findings and state-of-art solutions, you are especially invited to share experiences on new research challenges.

High quality papers in all information science areas are solicited. Original papers exploring research challenges will receive especially careful interest from reviewers. Papers that have already been accepted or are currently under review for other conferences or journals will not be considered for publications at RCIS 2016.

The authors of papers that obtain the highest marks in the reviewing process will be invited to submit an extended version to a journal.
