Call for Papers: International Conference on Soft Computing and
Applications (ICSCA 2008)
From: International Association of Engineers (IAENG)
San Francisco, USA, 22-24 October, 2008
http://www.iaeng.org/WCECS2008/ICSCA2008.html

The conference ICSCA'08 is held under the World Congress on
Engineering 2008. The WCECS 2008 is organized by the International
Association of Engineers (IAENG), a non-profit international
association for the engineers and the computer scientists. The
conference has the focus on the frontier topics in the theoretical and
applied engineering and computer science subjects. Our last IAENG
conference has attracted more than one thousand participants from over
50 countries, and our IAENG conference committees have been formed
with over two hundred committee members who are mainly research center
heads, faculty deans, department heads, professors, and research
scientists from universities like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, UCLA, UC
Berkeley and Yale etc.

All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN:
978-988-98671-0-2). The abstracts will be indexed and available at
major academic databases. The accepted papers will also be considered
for publication in the special issues of the journal Engineering
Letters, in IAENG journals and in edited books. Revised and expanded
version of the selected papers may also be included as book chapters
in the standalone edited books under the framework of cooperation
between IAENG and Springer, and between IAENG and America Institute of
Physics. For reference, the following post conference edited books of
our recent IAENG 2007 conferences: Trends in Intelligent Systems and
Computer Engineering, Advances in Communication Systems and Electrical
Engineering, Advances in Industrial Engineering and Operations
Research, and Advances in Computational Algorithms and Data Analysis,
have been published by Springer.

WCECS Submissions:

WCECS 2008 is now accepting manuscript submissions. Prospective
authors are invited to submit their draft paper in full paper (any
appropriate style) to WCECS { at }iaeng.org by 2 July, 2008. The
submitted file can be in MS Word format, PS format, or PDF formats.

The first page of the draft paper should include:
(1) Title of the paper;
(2) Name, affiliation and e-mail address for each author;
(3) A maximum of 5 keywords of the paper.

Also, the name of the conference that the paper is being submitted to
should be stated in the email. It is our target that the reviewing
process and the result notification for each submitted manuscript can
be completed within one month from its submission. The reviewing
process is to ensure the quality of the accepted papers in the WCECS
congress. The conferences have enjoyed high reputation among many
research colleagues (for example, see the http://cs.conference-ranking.net/
or http://www.conference-ranking.com/).

It is our target that the reviewing process and the result
notification for each submitted manuscript can be completed within one
month from its submission. The reviewing process is to ensure the
quality of the accepted papers in the WCECS congress. More details
