We would like to cordially invite you to consider contributing a paper
to LaSCoG-SCoDiS'14 - held as a part of the Federated Conference on
Computer Science and Information Systems (FedCSIS 2014).

FedCSIS is an annual international multi-conference organized by the
Polish Information Processing Society (PTI) in technical cooperation
with the IEEE Region 8, IEEE Computer Society, IEEE Poland Section
Computer Society Chapter, IEEE Poland (Gdansk) Section Computer Society
Chapter, ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing, ACM Lodz
Chapter, International Federation for Information Processing, European
Alliance for Innovation, Informatics Europe, IEEE-CIS Poland Section
