PURPOSE/HISTORY:
This set of joint conferences is the largest annual gathering of
researchers in computer science, computer engineering and applied
computing. Many of the 25 joint conferences in WORLDCOMP are the
premier conferences for presentation of advances in their respective
fields. We anticipate to have 2,600 or more attendees from over 80
countries participating in the 2008 joint conferences.
The motivation is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated research
conferences into a coordinated research meeting held in a common
place at a common time. The main goal is to provide a forum for
exchange of ideas in a number of research areas that interact. The
model used to form these annual conferences facilitates communication
among researchers from all over the world in different fields of
computer science, computer engineering and applied computing. Both
inward research (core areas of computer science and engineering) and
outward research (multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, and
applications) will be covered during the conferences.
WORLCOMP'08 will be composed of research presentations, keynote
lectures, invited presentations, tutorials, panel discussions, and
poster presentations. In recent past, keynote and/or tutorial speakers
included: Prof. Michael J. Flynn (Stanford U.); Prof. John H. Holland
(U. of Michigan, Ann Arbor); Prof. H. J. Siegel (Colorado State U.);
Prof. Barry Vercoe (MIT); Prof. Ruzena Bajcsy (U. of California,
Berkeley); Prof. David Cheriton (Stanford U.), Prof. A. K. Dunker
(Indiana U. and Purdue U.); Prof. Jun Liu (Harvard U.); Dr. Jim Gettys
(developer of X Window, ...); Dr. Chris Rowen (President and CEO,
Tensilica, Inc.); and many other distinguished speakers.
FEATURED 2008 KEYNOTE LECTURES:
Prof. David A. Patterson
University of California at Berkeley, California, USA
Member, National Academy of Engineering
Member, National Academy of Sciences
Fellow of IEEE, ACM, and AAAS
Shared (with John Hennessy) the IEEE John von Neumann Medal
Prof. Ophir Frieder
Georgetown University, Washington, DC, USA
The Royden B. Davis, SJ, Chair in Interdisciplinary Studies at
Georgetown University,
IITRI Chair Professor of Computer Science at Illinois Institute
of Technology,
Director, Information Retrieval lab (IIT)
Fellow of IEEE, ACM, and AAAS
(in addition to the above, each of the 25 conferences will have at least
one keynote and one invited lecture).
FEATURED TUTORIAL:
Prof. H. J. Siegel
Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
Abell Endowed Chair Distinguished Professor of ECE

Fellow of IEEE and ACM
(in addition to the above, there will also be 11 other tutorials).
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper
(about 5 to 7 pages - single space, font size of 10 to 12) to
H. R. Arabnia by Feb. 25, 2008. email submissions in MS document
or PDF formats are preferable (Fax or postal submissions are also
fine.) All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable (later,
the authors of accepted papers will be asked to follow a particular
typesetting format to prepare their papers for publication.)
The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be limited
to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been previously
published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. The
first page of the draft paper should include: title of the paper,
name, affiliation, postal address, email address, and telephone
number for each author. The first page should also identify the
name of the Contact Author and a maximum of 5 topical keywords that
would best represent the content of the paper. Finally, the name
of the conference that the paper is being submitted to must be
stated on the first page.
Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity,
impact, and soundness. Each paper will be refereed by two experts
in the field who are independent of the conference program committee.
The referees' evaluations will then be reviewed by two members of
the program committee who will recommend a decision to the chair of
the track that the paper has been submitted to. The chair will make
the final decision. Lastly, the Camera-Ready papers will be reviewed
by one member of the program committee.

MEMBERS OF PROGRAM AND ORGANIZING COMMITTEES:
The Program Committee includes members of chapters of World Academy
of Science (chapters: supercomputing; scientific computing; AI;
imaging science; databases; simulation; software engineering;
embedded systems; internet and web technologies; communications;
computer security; and bioinformatics.) The Program Committee for
individual conferences is currently being compiled. Those interested
in joining the Program Committee should email H. R. Arabnia
(hra at cs.uga.edu) the following information: Name, affiliation
and position, complete mailing address, email address, a short
biography together with research interests and the name of the
conference offering to help with.
Many who have already joined the committees of individual tracks
are renowned leaders, scholars, researchers, scientists and
practitioners of the highest ranks; many are directors of research
laboratories, fellows of various societies, heads/chairs of
departments, deans and provosts.
LOCATION OF CONFERENCES:
The conferences will be held in the Monte Carlo hotel, Las Vegas,
Nevada, USA (with any overflows at other near-by hotels). This is
a mega hotel with excellent conference facilities and over 3,000
rooms. It is minutes from the airport with 24-hour shuttle
service to and from the airport. This hotel has many recreational
attractions, including: spa, pools, sunning decks, Easy River,
wave pool, lighted tennis courts, health spa, nightly shows,
a number of restaurants, ... The negotiated room rate for
conference attendees is very reasonable. The hotel is within
walking distance from most other attractions.
