In addition, like prior years, extended versions of selected papers (about 35%) of the conference will appear in journals and edited research books (publishers include: Springer, Elsevier, BMC, and others); some of these books and journal special issues have already received the top 25% downloads in their respective fields. See the link below for a very small subset of the books published mostly based on extended versions of the accepted papers of this congress:
http://www.worldacademyofscience.org/worldcomp15/ws/publications. The titles of proceedings of the federated congress have been indexed into the ACM Digital Library ( http://dl.acm.org/ ) which includes bibliographic citations from major publishers in computing.

SAM’15 is part the 2015 World Congress in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Applied Computing. The Congress is composed of a number of tracks (federated/joint conferences, tutorials, sessions, workshops, poster and panel discussions); all will be held simultaneously, same location and dates: July 27-30, 2015.
