* Conference background and goals
The IADIS Applied Computing 2013 conference aims to address the main issues of concern within the applied computing area and related fields. This conference covers essentially technical aspects. The applied computing field is divided into more detailed areas (see below). However innovative contributions that don't fit into these areas will also be considered since they might be of benefit to conference attendees.

* Format of the Conference
The conference will comprise invited talks and oral presentations. The proceedings of the conference will be published in the form of a book.
There will be a special issue with extended versions of best papers published by the International Journal of Intelligent Engineering
Informatics (IJIEI), ISSN online: 1758-8723; ISSN print: 1758-8715.
The best paper authors will also be invited to publish extended versions of their papers in specific journals, and in the IADIS International Journal on Computer Science and Information Systems.
The conference proceedings will be submitted for indexing to INSPEC, EI Compendex, Thomson ISI, ISTP and other indexing services.
