SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers by uploading
them to the evaluation web site at: http://world-comp.org Submissions
must be uploaded by March 10, 2011 and they must be in either MS doc
(but not docx) or pdf formats (about 5 to 7 pages - single space, font
size of 10 to 12). All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable
(later, the authors of accepted papers will be asked to follow a
particular typesetting format to prepare their final papers for
publication.) Papers must not have been previously published or
currently submitted for publication elsewhere.
The first page of the paper should include: title of the paper, name,
affiliation, postal address, and email address 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 (ie, ICAI) that the
paper is being submitted for consideration must be stated on the first
page.
The length of the final/Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be
limited to 7 (two-column IEEE style) pages.
Each paper will be peer-reviewed by two experts in the field for
originality, significance, clarity, impact, and soundness. In cases of
contradictory recommendations, a member of the conference program
committee will be charged to make the final decision (accept/reject) -
often, this would involve seeking help from additional referees by
using a double-blinded review process. In addition, all papers whose
authors included a member of the conference program committee will be
evaluated using the double-blinded review
process. (Essay/philosophical papers will not be refereed but may be
considered for discussion/panels).
All proceedings of WORLDCOMP will be published and indexed in: Inspec
/ IET / The Institute for Engineering & Technology, DBLP / CS
Bibliography, and others. The printed proceedings will be available
for distribution on site at the conference.
In addition to the publication of the proceedings, selected authors
will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for
publication in a number of research books being proposed/contracted
with various publishers (such as, Springer, Elsevier, ...) - these
books would be composed after the conference. Also, many chairs of
sessions and workshops will be forming journal special issues to be
published after the conference.

GENERAL INFORMATION:
ICAI conference is a track of a federated research conference. It is
being held jointly (same location and dates) with a number of other
research conferences (WORLDCOMP). WORLDCOMP is the largest annual
gathering of researchers in computer science, computer engineering and
applied computing. We anticipate to have 2,000 or more attendees from
over 85 countries.
WORLDCOMP 2011 will be composed of research presentations, keynote
lectures, invited presentations, tutorials, panel discussions, and
poster presentations. In recent past, keynote/tutorial/panel speakers
have included: Prof. David A. Patterson (pioneer/ architecture, U. of
California, Berkeley), Dr. K. Eric Drexler (known as Father of
Nanotechnology), Prof. John H. Holland (known as Father of Genetic
Algorithms; U. of Michigan), Prof. Ian Foster (known as Father of Grid
Computing; U. of Chicago & ANL), Prof. Ruzena Bajcsy (pioneer/VR,
U. of California, Berkeley), Prof. Barry Vercoe (Founding member of
MIT Media Lab, MIT), Dr. Jim Gettys (known as X-man, developer of X
Window System, xhost; OLPC), Prof. John Koza (known as Father of
Genetic Programming, Stanford U.), Prof. Brian D. Athey (NIH Program
Director, U. of Michigan), Prof. Viktor K. Prasanna (pioneer, U. of
Southern California), Dr. Jose L. Munoz (NSF Program Director and
Consultant), Prof. Jun Liu (Broad Institute of MIT & Harvard U.),
Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh (Father of Fuzzy Logic), Dr. Firouz Naderi (Head,
NASA Mars Exploration Program/2000-2005 and Associate Director,
Project Formulation & Strategy, Jet Propulsion Lab, CalTech/NASA), and
many other distinguished speakers. To get a feeling about the
conferences' atmosphere, see the 2010 delegates photos available at:
www.pixagogo.com/1676934789
An important mission of WORLDCOMP is "Providing a unique platform for
a diverse community of constituents composed of scholars, researchers,
developers, educators, and practitioners. The Congress makes concerted
effort to reach out to participants affiliated with diverse entities
(such as: universities, institutions, corporations, government
agencies, and research centers/labs) from all over the world. The
congress also attempts to connect participants from institutions that
have teaching as their main mission with those who are affiliated with
institutions that have research as their main mission. The congress
uses a quota system to achieve its institution and geography diversity
objectives."
One main goal of the congress is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated
research conferences, workshops, and symposiums into a coordinated
research meeting held in a common place at a common time. This model
facilitates communication among researchers in different branches of
computer science, computer engineering, and applied computing. The
Congress also encourages multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary
research initiatives; ie, facilitating increased opportunities for
cross-fertilization across sub-disciplines.
PROPOSAL FOR ORGANIZING SESSIONS/WORKSHOPS:
Each session will have at least 6 paper presentations from different
authors (12 papers in the case of workshops). The session chairs will
be responsible for all aspects of their sessions; including,
soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, ... The names of session
chairs will appear as Associate Editors in the conference proceedings
and on the cover of the books.
Proposals to organize sessions should include the following
information: name and address (+ email) of proposer, his/her
biography, title of session, a 100-word description of the topic of
the session, the name of the conference the session is submitted for
consideration (ie, ICAI), and a short description on how the session
will be advertised (in most cases, session proposers solicit papers
from colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the session
proposer). email your session proposal to editor at world-comp.org We
would like to receive the session proposals as soon as possible
(preferably before Feb. 5, 2011).
