The first IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC) was held in 1995 in response to the growing interaction between the fields of computers and communications. ISCC 2021, in its 26th edition, will take place hopefully at Athens, Greece. Workshops are scheduled on Sept. 5th.

We call for great workshop proposals that cover ISCC exciting specific areas. All workshop papers are limited to no more than 6 pages in IEEE format aligned with the IEEE-ISCC main conference guidelines. It is expected that the organizers of workshops conform to the rules imposed by the IEEE-ISCC steering committee.

Accepted workshop papers will be included in the IEEE ISCC 2021 proceedings and will appear in the IEEE Xplore Library.
