CODS-COMAD 2018 is hosting a demonstration session that provides a forum to researchers and developers to display their software systems, prototypes, conceptual designs, libraries, etc., in an interactive setting. Please see Demo Track (http://www.cods-comad.in/2018/demo.html) for more details. The industry track of the conference aims to bring together the leading industry and academia practitioners to share their insights, expertise and experiences. We invite original papers describing case studies, experiences and applied research in the areas mentioned above for this track. Bookmark this page for further updates on tutorials. Accepted papers will be presented either as an oral talk or as a poster at the conference. The proceedings will be published in ACM Digital Library. Additionally, authors of selected papers will have the choice to opt their paper out of the conference proceedings. This will enable the paper presented at COMAD-CoDS to be resubmitted at a different future venue. The submissions should not exceed 10 pages of content plus unlimited references and should be formatted in the standard ACM style available at the ACM Master Article Template. In case of submissions to the industry track, papers should not exceed 6 pages of content plus references and should be formatted in the standard ACM style.
