Community Services
Community services encompass a wide array of programs aimed at improving community well-being. They include social, healthcare, educational, recreational, elderly, and youth services, as well as community development, emergency response, environmental initiatives, and cultural programs.
To enhance community services, technology can be used for digital access, data analytics, online service delivery, smart infrastructure, community engagement, telehealth, e-government, emergency notifications, virtual learning, IoT for safety, data collection, digital inclusion, and more. These technologies improve efficiency, accessibility, and quality of service delivery.
Specific technologies, such as IoT, AI/ML, smart infrastructure, 5G/6G, mobile apps, blockchain, drones, AR/VR, biotech, robotics, data analytics, renewable energy, cybersecurity, remote sensing, voice assistants, and advanced computing, can be developed to innovate community services. The choice depends on community needs and collaboration among stakeholders is vital for successful implementation.

Submission and Publication
I4CS solicits submissions of unpublished papers presenting research results, industrial experiences and applications, as well as detailed specifications of open problems.
Electronic submission is required. Full papers of no more than 20 pages and written in English should be submitted as PDF files using the EasyChair conference management system (submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=i4cs2025). All submitted papers will be subject to a single-blind review process by at least three members of the program committee. "Single-blind" means that the reviewers know the identities of the authors of a submitted paper, but the authors do not know the identities of the reviewers. In this process, anonymizing submissions is not necessary.
I4CS Proceedings have been published with Springer in Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series. We will continue our cooperation with Springer. For formatting instructions and templates please refer to https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines. In addition, the papers will be submitted to indexing libraries, e.g. DBLP, Scopus, and for consideration by the Web of Science (WoS) conference proceedings citation index.
