The International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA) is a major annual international conference bringing together researchers, engineers, developers and practitioners from academia and industry working in all interdisciplinary areas of computational intelligence and system engineering to share their experience, and exchange and cross-fertilize their ideas. The first day will include tutorials and workshops, organized by leading experts in the field.

Proceedings: As in previous years, we expect the ISDA 2014 proceedings to be published by IEEE subject to fulfilling its quality requirements. It is mandatory for at least one author to register for every paper that is included in the conference proceedings. Proceedings will be made available during the conference.
