Dear Colleagues:

The Computers and Information Systems (CIS) division of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the Computers and Information Systems (CIS) Track at the 2017 IISE Annual Conference and Expo. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering research and practitioner communities. The 2017 IISE Annual Conference and Expo will be one conference. There are no longer separate ISERC and Applied Solutions sessions. This exciting change will bring researchers and practitioners together to share the latest advances in computers & information systems field.

IISE is currently working on uploading papers of previous years onto the IISE website. Papers are not required, but strongly encouraged. Presentation only submissions will not be indexed in the conference proceedings.

If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) the presenting author for the paper must register for the conference by March 13, 2017 (presentations/papers without the presenting author registered for the conference will be withdrawn from the program and the proceedings); (b) the presenting author must attend and present the paper at the conference (presenting authors who fail to attend will have their paper withdrawn from the proceedings); and (c) we ask that you be ready to serve as a reviewer for fellow authors and follow review deadlines - all authors who submit a paper are expected to review two papers.

There are also opportunities to organize invited sessions or panels. In addition to research and practitioner presentations, the annual conference offers many opportunities for attendees, including plant tours, networking, and keynote speakers.

We look forward to seeing you in Pittsburgh!
