The 2008 International Symposium on Applied Computing and Computational Sciences (ACCS 2008) will be held on 1-3 August, 2008 in Hong Kong, China. It provides three day’s focus on the science and its application that are the basis for the Applied Computing and Computational Sciences. The theme of the plenary session is “Applying Computing to Improve Life” featuring invited speakers who will further explore this topic that is so significant for this fields. Concurrent sessions and a poster session will cover a wide range of topics and issues, including both contributed papers and special sessions developed on specific themes, all with a central focus of Applied Computing and Computational Sciences.

This symposium provides an idea-exchange and discussion platform for the world’s researchers and academia, where internationally recognized researchers and practitioners share cutting-edge information, address the hottest issue in computational sciences and applications, explore new computational technologies, exchange and build upon new ideas. And meantime the symposium will also provide researchers and practitioners interested in new computational technologies an opportunity to highlight innovative research directions, and a growing number of novel applications.
