The IEEE Systems and Information Engineering Design Symposium (SIEDS'15) is a student-focused international forum for applied research, development, and design in Systems and Information Engineering. The Symposium is the leading showcase for undergraduate and Master's graduate design projects, such as those from capstone design courses or from baccalaureate, honors, or design-oriented graduate theses. Projects must extend beyond the analysis of systems and include the synthesis of alternative solutions to a problem. When appropriate, implementation and testing of a design is encouraged. Faculty, industry, and government project advisors are welcome coauthors.

Contributed papers are solicited that apply diverse methodologies, including:

    Data Modeling: including Big Data, Data Analytics, and Data Mining
    Decision Analysis and Optimization
    Systems Integration & Design
    Simulation and Stochastic Modeling
    Human Factors and Cognitive Engineering
    Risk Analysis, Technology Management, and Policy

Papers can describe work in a wide variety of application areas, including:

    Telecommunications and Information Technology
    Healthcare
    Energy
    Robotics and Sensor Networks
    Transportation and Logistics
    Critical Infrastructure
    Military Applications
    Economic and Financial Systems
    Environmental
    E-Business
    Manufacturing
    Education

Papers should emphasize the application of fundamental systems analysis and design concepts. Symposium papers presented will appear in a copyrighted CD-ROM proceedings, available on-site and through IEEE Press. Papers not accepted for the proceedings will be considered for the conference poster sessions.
