About CONF-CDS 2026
The 8th International Conference on Computing and Data Science (CONF-CDS 2026) is a leading conference on computing technology, machine learning, and data science. CONF-CDS is open to international participants. It provides an excellent opportunity for scholars interested in computing and data science to share their findings and achievements, thus promoting communication and cooperation.
The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to highlight the importance of computer science and data management as well as establish new collaborations in these areas. The conference looks for significant contributions to computing, machine learning, and artificial intelligence in theoretical and practical aspects.
CONF-CDS 2026 is a hybrid conference, establishing an online session and welcoming participants from all countries and regions to join whenever and wherever possible. Meanwhile, to facilitate broader academic exchange and knowledge sharing, CONF-CDS 2026 will host multiple on-site symposium series. Authors are welcome to submit their manuscripts to the symposium series, each of which will independently handle the submission and review process.
Call For Papers
The topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Machine Learning
- Deep and Reinforcement Learning
- Theories and Applications
- Computational Optimization
Review Process
The submission will first be reviewed for its topic and length, then go through an originality check. The peer-review process will begin soon after the paper is found to be qualified. The paper will be sent to have a double-blind peer review by 3 reviewers. They will judge the paper based on the theme, coverage, innovation, integrity, depth, and language. If the paper is accepted, notification of acceptance and review comments will be sent to the author via email. The actual review time may be different under certain situations.
Publication
All papers submitted to the conference will be assigned to the respective symposium committees based on factors such as submission date and topic relevance. Each symposium committee will then coordinate the peer review process, ensuring rigorous evaluation and making final decisions on acceptance and publication.
Journals
We call for excellent papers and review them according to the requirements of each journal. Qualified submissions will be directly recommended for publication in the following journals or corresponding Special Issues. The journals listed below have been indexed by Science Citation Index (SCI)/Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) and/or Social Science Citation Index (SSCI):
- JCRQ2 - Micromachines [Impact Factor: 3.4; CiteScore: 4.7]
Please refer to the 'Information > Publication' page for specific recommendation rules and guidelines.
Conference Proceedings
Accepted papers of CONF-CDS 2026 will be published in conference proceedings according to the research field, which will be submitted to EI Compendex, Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI), Crossref, Portico, Inspec, Google Scholar, CNKI and other databases for indexing. The indexing result will be determined by the conference proceedings in which the paper is included.
* Accepted manuscripts will be submitted to the publisher on a rolling basis. Early-registered papers are expected to be published and printed earlier.
