SUBMISSION OF PAPERS, PUBLICATION, INDEXING INFORMATION:

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers
by uploading them to the evaluation web site at:
http://worldcomp.cviog.uga.edu/
Submissions must be uploaded by March 21, 2010 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).
At this time, 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.)

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, 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.

All accepted papers will be published in the respective
conference proceedings (in both, printed book/ISBN form as well
as online). The proceedings will be indexed in Inspec / IET /
The Institute for Engineering and Technology, DBLP / Computer
Science 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, IOS, ...) - 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.

IMPORTANT DATES:

March 21, 2010:    Submission of papers (about 5 to 7 pages)
April 10, 2010:    Notification of acceptance (+/- two days)
May 1, 2010:       Final papers + Copyright + Registration
