Preface Preface (hide)

Dear Reader, it is our pleasure to present to you Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems (FedCSIS’2020), which took place fully remotely, on September 7-9, 2020. Conference was originally planned to take place in Sofia, Bulgaria, but the global COVID-19 pandemics forced us to adapt and organize the conference online.

FedCSIS 2020 was Chaired by prof. Stefka Fidanova, while dr. Nina Dobrinkova acted as the Chair of the Organizing Committee. This year, FedCSIS was organized by the Polish Information Processing Society (Mazovia Chapter), IEEE Poland Section Computer Society Chapter, Systems Research Institute Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw University of Technology, Wrocław University of Economics and Business, and Institute of Information and Communication Technologies, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.

FedCSIS 2020 was technically co-sponsored by: IEEE Poland Section, IEEE Czechoslovakia Section Computer Society Chapter, IEEE Poland Section Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Chapter, IEEE Poland Section Computational Intelligence Society Chapter, IEEE Poland Section Control System Society Chapter, Committee of Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Mazovia Cluster ICT Poland, Eastern Cluster ICT Poland and Bulgarian Section of SIAM.

During FedCSIS 2020, the keynote lectures were delivered by:

  • Christian Blum, Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (IIIA-CSIC), Barcelona, Spain: “Are you a Hybrid? Yes, of course, everyone is a Hybrid nowadays!”
  • George Boustras, European University Cyprus: “Critical Infrastructure Protection—on the interface of safety and security”
  • Hans-Georg Fill, University of Fribourg, Switzerland: „From Digital Transformation to Digital Ubiquity: The Role of Enterprise Modeling”

FedCSIS 2020 consisted of five Tracks. Within each Track, topical Technical Sessions have been organized. Some of these Technical Sessions have been associated with the FedCSIS conference series for many years, while some of them are relatively new. Their role is to focus and enrich discussions on selected areas pertinent to the general scope of each Track.

  • Track 1: Artificial Intelligence
    • Topical technical sessions:
      • 15th International Symposium on Advanced Artificial Intelligence in Applications (AAIA'20)
      • 13th International Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO'20)
      • 5th International Workshop on Language Technologies and Applications (LTA'20)
  • Track 2: Computer Science & Systems
    • Topical technical sessions:
      • Advances in Computer Science and Systems (ACS&S’20)
      • 13th Workshop on Computer Aspects of Numerical Algorithms (CANA'20)
      • 11th Workshop on Scalable Computing (WSC'20)
  • Track 3:  Network Systems and Applications
    • Topical technical sessions:
      • Advances in Network Systems and Applications (ANSA’20)
      • 4th Workshop on Internet of Things – Enablers, Challenges and Applications (IoT-ECAW’20)
      • International Forum of Cyber Security, Privacy, and Trust (NEMESIS'20)
  • Track 4: Information Systems and Technology
    • Topical technical sessions:
      • Advances in Information Systems and Technologies (AIST)
      • 2nd Special Session on Data Science in Health, Ecology and Commerce (DSH'20)
      • 15th Conference on Information Systems Management (ISM'20)
      • 26th Conference on Knowledge Acquisition and Management (KAM’20)
  • Track 5: Software and System Engineering
    • Topical technical sessions:
      • Advances in Software and System Engineering (ASSE’20)
      • 4th International Conference on Lean and Agile Software Development (LASD'20)
      • 6th Workshop on Model Driven Approaches in System Development (MDASD'20)
      • Joint 40th IEEE Software Engineering Workshop (SEW-40) and 7th International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems (IWCPS-7)

The 2020 edition of an AAIA’20 Data Mining Challenge was entitled “Network Device Workload Prediction”. The task was related to the monitoring of large IT infrastructures, and the estimation of their resource allocation. The challenge was sponsored by the EMCA Software and the Mazowia Branch of the Polish Information Processing Society (PTI). Papers resulting from the competition are included in the Conference Proceedings (within Track 1: AI).

Each paper, found in this volume, was refereed by at least two referees, and the acceptance rate of regular full papers was ~25.8% (52 regular full papers, out of 201 general submissions).

The program of FedCSIS required a dedicated effort of many people. We would like to express our warmest gratitude to all Committee members, of each Track and each Technical Session, for their hard work in attracting and later refereeing 206 submissions (regular and data mining).

We thank the authors of papers for their great contribution into theory and practice of computing and software systems. We are grateful to the invited speakers, for sharing their knowledge and wisdom with the participants.

Last, but not least, we thank prof. Fidanova and dr. Dobrinkova. It should be stressed that they made all the preparations to organize the conference in Bulgaria. They also worked with us diligently when we were forced to move the conference online. Stefka nad Nina, we are very grateful for all your efforts! As a matter of fact, we hope to organize FedCSIS in Bulgaria as soon as the World returns to normal (even if it will be the “new normal”).

We hope that you had an inspiring conference. We also hope to meet you again for the 16th Conference on Computer Science and Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS 2021). Please note an upcoming change in the conference name, from Information Systems to Intelligence Systems. The change is warranted, first, by the changes in the world around us. As can be easily observed, broadly understood, intelligence is permeating all aspects of our reality. Second, this change is already reflected by the kinds of paper submissions that are being received by all FedCSIS Tracks, and our intent to attract even more submissions related to all sorts of Intelligence Systems (including of course Artificial Intelligence, but also Business Intelligence, Management Intelligence, Human Intelligence, Financial Intelligence, Embedded Intelligence, Computational Intelligence, Collective Intelligence, Biomedical Intelligence, Military Intelligence, Network Intelligence…).

Taking into account the level of uncertainty related to COVID-19, we are seriously considering organizing the next edition of the conference online, again. However, the final decision has not been reached, yet.
