CIIA 2015 continued the series of conferences whose main objective is to provide a forum for the dissemination of research accomplishments and to promote the interaction and collaboration between various research communities related to computer science and its applications. These conferences have been initiated by researchers from Algeria and extended to cover worldwide researchers focusing on promoting research, creating scientific networks, developing projects, as well as facilitating faculty and student exchanges, especially in Africa.This year the CIIA conference attracted 225 submissions from 20 countries including: Algeria, Bangladesh, Belgium, Canada, China, Finland, France, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Jordan, Morocco, Norway, Poland, Qatar, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, UK, and USA. In a rigorous reviewing process, the Program Committee (PC) selected 51 papers, which represents an acceptance rate of 22.6%. The PC included 200 researchers from 27 countries.The accepted papers were organized into the four following research tracks: Computational Intelligence, co-chaired by: Sadok Ben Yahia (FST, Tunisia) and Nadjet Kamel (Setif University, Algeria); Security and Network Technologies, co-chaired by Nadjib Badache (CERIST, Algeria) and Alfredo Cuzzocrea (ICAR-CNR and University of Calabria, Italy); Information Technology, co-chaired by Jorge Bernardi...
