<div class="MsoPlainText">
Each conference (see below for the list) is composed of a
number of tracks.<o:p></o:p></div>

An important
mission of The Congress is "Providing a unique platform for<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
a diverse
community of constituents composed of scholars, researchers,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
developers,
educators, and practitioners. The Congress makes concerted<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
effort to reach out
to participants affiliated with diverse entities<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
(such as:
universities, institutions, corporations, government agencies,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
and research
centers/labs) from all over the world. The congress also<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
attempts to
connect participants from institutions that have teaching as<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
effort to reach out
to participants affiliated with diverse entities<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
(such as:
universities, institutions, corporations, government agencies,<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
A track can be a
session, a workshop, or a symposium. A session will have<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
at least 6
papers; a workshop at least 12 papers; and a symposium at least<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
18 papers. Track
chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their tracks,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
including:
soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, ... The names of track<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
chairs will
appear as Associate Editors in the conference proceedings and<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
on the cover of
the printed books (and indexed in science databases as such).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Track chairs who
attract a sufficient number of solid papers can propose<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
to edit books
with a major publisher based on the extended versions of the<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
papers accepted
in their tracks (the congress will facilitate and help such<o:p></o:p></div>

An important
mission of The Congress is "Providing a unique platform for<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
a diverse
community of constituents composed of scholars, researchers,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
developers,

<div class="MsoPlainText">
effort to reach
out to participants affiliated with diverse entities<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
(such as:
universities, institutions, corporations, government agencies,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
and research
centers/labs) from all over the world. The congress also<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
attempts to
connect participants from institutions that have teaching as<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
their main
mission with those who are affiliated with institutions that<o:p></o:p></div>

achieve its
institution and geography diversity objectives."<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

An important
mission of The Congress is "Providing a unique platform for<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
a diverse
community of constituents composed of scholars, researchers,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
developers,

<div class="MsoPlainText">
effort to reach
out to participants affiliated with diverse entities<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
(such as:
universities, institutions, corporations, government agencies,<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
Prospective
authors are invited to submit their papers by uploading them to the evaluation
web site at: <a href="http://world-comp.org/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">http://world-comp.org</span></a> . Submissions must be uploaded by March 15,
2014 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 that the paper is being submitted for consideration 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.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The proceedings
will be published in printed conference books (ISBN) and will also be made
available online. The printed proceedings/books will be available for
distribution on site at the conference. 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, & STN International);
and others. The proceedings/books of this congress have been evaluated for
inclusion into major science citation index databases. We are happy to report
that so far, the evaluation board of science citation index databases have

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."<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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.<o:p></o:p></div>

INVITATION:</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
You are invited to submit a "Late Breaking
Paper", "Position Paper", or "Abstract/Poster Paper"
for consideration. All accepted papers will be published in printed conference
books/proceedings (ISBN) and will also be made available online. Like prior
years, extended versions of selected papers (about 35%) will appear in journals
and edited research books (publishers include: Springer, Elsevier, BMC, and
others). 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
consideration in these books.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The web sites for the two book series will be made
available after the logistics are finalized by our committee and the publishers
(both book series projects have been approved.) 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:</div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
Submissions must be uploaded by June 2, 2013 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.)
Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for
publication elsewhere.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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. (Papers deemed to be philosophical, essay type,
or about controversial topics/applications will not be refereed but may be
considered for discussion/panels/presentation).</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The proceedings will be published in printed conference
books (ISBN) and will also be made available online. The proceedings will be
sent to science citation databases that track citation frequency/data for each
published paper. Science citation databases include: relevant Elsevier indexing
products (SCI Elsevier products include, among others: Scopus, <a href="http://www.info.scopus.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">www.info.scopus.com</span></a>; Engineering Village, <a href="http://www.ei.org/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">www.ei.org</span></a>; EMBASE, <a href="http://www.info.embase.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">www.info.embase.com</span></a>; and others); 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.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
In addition to the above, we have arranged two new book
series; one with Elsevier publishers (Transactions on Computer Science and

Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Applied Computing. The Congress is
the largest annual gathering of researchers in computer science, computer
engineering and applied computing. We anticipate to have 2,100 or more
attendees from over 85 countries.</div>

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."</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
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.</div>
