SUBMISSION OF
REGULAR 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 18, 2013 and must be in either MS doc or pdf formats
(about 7 pages including all figures, tables, and references - 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. The name of the conference (ie, EEE)
must also be stated on the first page of the paper as well as a 100 to 150-word
abstract. 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 would be charged to make the final
decision (accept/reject); often, this would involve seeking help from
additional referees.
Papers whose
authors include 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).
The proceedings
will be published in printed conference books (ISBN) and will also be made
available online. The proceedings will be indexed in science citation databases
that track citation frequency/data for each published paper. Science citation
databases include: Inspec / IET / The Institute for Engineering &
Technology; The French National Center for Scientific Research, CNRS, INIST
databases, PASCAL (accessable from INIST, Datastar, Dialog, EBSCO, OVID, Questel.Orbit,
Qwam, and STN International); and others. Though, there is no guarantee that
the proceedings will also be included in SCI EI Compendex/Elsevier indexings;
in the past, the proceedings were included in these databases. Therefore, we
will also be sending the proceedings for indexing procedures to SCI EI
Compendex/Elsevier. The printed proceedings/books will be available for
distribution on site at the conference.
In addition to
the above, we have arranged two new book series; one with Elsevier publishers (Transactions
on Computer Science and Applied Computing) and another with Springer publishers
(Transactions of Computational Science and Computational Intelligence). After
the conference, a significant number of authors of accepted papers of our
congress, will be given the opportunity to submit the extended version of their
papers for publication in these books. We anticipate having between 10 to 20
books a year in each of these book series projects. Each book in each series
will be subject to Elsevier and Springer science indexing products (which
includes: Scopus, Ei village, SCI, ...).
SUBMISSION OF
POSTER PAPERS:
Poster papers
can be 2 pages long. Authors are to follow the same instructions that appear
above (see, SUBMISSION OF REGULAR PAPERS) except for the submission is limited
to 2 pages. On the first page, the author should state that "This paper is
being submitted as a poster". Poster papers (if accepted) will be

available at: http://infinitydempsey.smugmug.com/WorldComp
An important
mission of the Congress 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 fields 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.
MEASURABLE
SCIENTIFIC IMPACT OF CONGRESS:
As of December
2012, papers published in the Congress proceedings have received over 27,000
citations (includes about 2,000 self-citations).
