The International Conference on new Trends in Computing Sciences is organized by the King Hussein School for Computing Science in Princess Sumaya University for Technology with the support of the Scientific Research Support Fund (Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research-Jordan). The goal of the conference is to provide an international biannual forum where international scientists meet with Jordanian scientists from the different fields of computer science to exchange ideas and information on current studies, challenges, research results, system developments, and practical experiences. Aside from the regular presentations, the conference will include keynote addresses with speakers from both industry and academia. Papers reporting original and unpublished research results and experience are solicited.

Submission Guidelines
Only original unpublished contributions are solicited for presentation. Plagiarism in any form will lead to the rejection of the paper. Authors are requested to submit their papers through EasyChair submission system (available here) on or before June 30, 2017. Simultaneous submissions (papers already submitted to other conferences/ journals) are not allowed. All papers must follow strict IEEE formatting instructions. Violation of which will lead to rejection of the paper. Submitted papers should be written in English with a maximum length of 6 pages. No-show papers are defined as papers submitted by authors who subsequently did not present the paper in-person (no videos, no remote cast) at the conference. No-show papers will be identified as “No-Show” and will not be published. No refund of the paid fees can be claimed by the no-show author.
