------------------------------------------------------------------------------


CISIS aims to offer a meeting opportunity for academic and 
industry-related researchers belonging to the various, vast communities 
of Computational Intelligence, Information Security, Data Mining, and 
Biometry. The need for intelligent, flexible behavior by large, complex 
systems, especially in mission-critical domains, is intended to be the 
catalyst and the aggregation stimulus for the overall event. CISIS08 
provides an interesting opportunity to present and discuss the latest 
theoretical advances and real-world applications in this 
multidisciplinary research field.


We invite contributed paper for CISIS'08. Prospective authors are 
invited to submit their manuscripts before March 14, 2008. Accepted 
papers will be included in CISIS'08 Proceedings to be published by 
Springer in the prestigious Advances in Soft Computing Serie.


*** JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE ***

The selected best papers will be published in a special issue of
Journal of Information Assurance and Security (JIAS)
http://www.softcomputing.net/jias/
