Longer papers up to 20 pages can be considered in exceptional cases. All relevant papers will be fully peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers from the ACALCI 2015 International Program Committee before acceptance for publication in the proceedings. It is expected that submitted manuscripts are original and have neither been published nor submitted for publication elsewhere. The submitted papers and all their underlying research must comply with the professional standards of the discipline. <br>All accepted papers that are presented at the conference will be published in the ACALCI 2015 proceedings as a LNAI volume by Springer-Verlag. The LNAI volumes are indexed by the following services: Scopus, Zentralblatt MATH, IO-Port, MathSciNet, ACM Digital Library, dblp, EI Engineering Index (Compendex and Inspec databases), and the ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S), included in ISI Web of Science. <br>A special issue in the journal Connection Science will invite authors of some of the best papers to submit extended versions of their articles. <br>It is planned to run the conference for three days as a single stream of high quality presentations with attached poster sessions, demonstrations and performances. In exceptional cases where an author cannot travel, a presentation (poster or oral) via skype or video conferencing can be organised. <br> <br>LOCATION and VENUE: The University of Newcastle Conservatorium of Music Concert Hall, Newcastle, Australia. This is a stylish venue about 2.5 hours north of Sydney. Williamtown Airport is a 25 minute taxi/car drive away. It is close to several hotels, YHA, and the beautiful Newcastle beaches. <br> <br>WORKSHOPS, TUTORIALS and PERFORMANCES: If you would like to organise a workshop, tutorial or performance in connection with ACALCI2015 please contact the organisers as soon as possible. <br> <br>CONFERENCE WEBPAGE with further details: http://www.newcastle.edu.au/ACALCI2015 <br> <br>CONTACT email of the conference chair: ACALCI2015@gmail.com <br>
