Camera-Ready LATE BREAKING PAPERS, POSITION PAPERS, ABSTRACTS/
POSTERS Due for publication. Papers submitted and accepted in
response to this announcement will be published in the Final
Edition of the proceedings which will go to press soon after
the conference; they will also be indexed in science citation
index databases. The Final Edition of the proceedings will be
identical to the Preliminary Edition except for the addition
of the accepted LATE BREAKING PAPERS, POSITION PAPERS,
ABSTRACTS/POSTERS at the end of the books. The conference
would make the necessary arrangements to ship the printed
proceedings/books to such authors.
SUBMISSION OF LATE BREAKING PAPERS, POSITION PAPERS,
ABSTRACTS/POSTERS:
In response to this announcement, authors are given the
opportunity to
submit their papers for evaluation in one of the
following three paper
categories:
1. LATE BREAKING
PAPERS: describe late-breaking/recent developments in
the field.
The maximum number of pages is 7. Please write the
following on
the first page of your submission "name of conference:
LATE BREAKING
PAPER". If accepted, The length of the final/Camera-
Ready paper
will be limited to 7 (two-column IEEE style) pages and
the author
will be given the opportunity to present the paper in a
formal
session.
2. POSITION
PAPERS: enable discussions on emerging topics without the
experimentation normally present in an academic paper. Commonly,
such papers
will substantiate the opinions or positions put forward
with evidence
from an extensive objective discussion of the topic.
The maximum number
of pages is 5. Please write the following on the
first page of
your submission "name of conference: POSITION PAPER".
If accepted,
The length of the final/Camera-Ready paper will be
limited to 4
(two-column IEEE style) pages and the author will be
given the
opportunity to present the paper in a formal session.
3.
ABSTRACT/POSTER PAPERS: describe research roadmaps (similar to PhD
plan or PhD
prospectus). The maximum number of pages is 2. Please
write the
following on the first page of your submission "name of
conference:
ABSTRACT/POSTER PAPER". If accepted, The length of the
final/Camera-Ready paper will be limited to 2 (two-column IEEE
style) pages
and the author will be given the opportunity to
present the
paper in a discussion/poster session.
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 the due date (see IMPORTANT DATES) and
must be in either
MS doc or pdf formats. 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; these formatting instructions appear at:
http://world-comp.org
and they conform to the two-column IEEE style
format). 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 as well as a maximum of 5 topical
keywords that
would best represent the content of the paper. The first
page should also
identify the name of the Contact/Corresponding author
together with
his/her professional email address. A 100 to 150-word
abstract should
appear on the first page. Authors are to conform to the
common CODE OF
ETHICS FOR AUTHORS (The document for the Code of Ethics is
available on
the submission web site.)
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. All proceedings are also approved for
inclusion into
EBSCO ( www.ebsco.com ), one of the largest subject index
systems. The
titles of proceedings of the federated congress have been
indexed into
the ACM Digital Library ( http://dl.acm.org/ ) which
includes
bibliographic citations from major publishers in
computing.
In addition to the above, we have arranged two new book
series (multiple
books in each series); one with Elsevier publishers
(Emerging Trends in
Computer Science and Applied Computing) and another with
Springer
publishers (Transactions of Computational Science and
Computational
Intelligence). After the conference (the process may take
12 to 18
months), 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 consideration in these
books. We
anticipate having between 10 and 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, www.info.scopus.com ; SCI Compendex, Engineering
Village,
www.ei.org ; EMBASE, www.info.embase.com ; and others).
For a recent
and a very small subset of the books (and journal special
issues) that
have been published based on the extended versions of
many of our
congress papers, see the link below:
http://www.worldacademyofscience.org/worldcomp15/ws/books_journals
Note that authors who submit papers in response to this
announcement,
will have their papers evaluated for publication
consideration in the
Final Edition of the conference proceedings which will go
to press
soon after the conference (the conference would then make
the necessary
arrangements to ship the printed proceedings/books to
such authors).
The Final Edition of the conference proceedings will be
identical to
earlier edition except for a number of sections/chapters
appended to
the proceedings/book.

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;
i.e., facilitating increased opportunities for
cross-fertilization across
sub-disciplines.
