CALL FOR PAPERS
ICNC'06-FSKD'06 aims to provide a high-level international forum for
scientists and researchers to present the state of the
art of computational algorithms inspired from nature, including biological,
ecological, and physical systems. It is an
exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of
techniques and methods are being studied for dealing
with large, complex, and dynamic problems. The joint conferences will
feature plenary speeches given by worldwide renowned
scholars, regular sessions with broad coverage, and some special sessions
focused on cross-fertilization over these exciting
and yet closely-related areas.
Specific areas include, but are not limited to neural computation,
evolutionary computation, quantum computation, DNA
computation, chemical computation, information processing in cells and
tissues, molecular computation, computation with
words, fuzzy computation, granular computation, artificial life, swarm
intelligence, ants colony, artificial immune systems,
etc., with applications to knowledge discovery, finance, operations
research, and more.
Submission of Papers
Prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality manuscripts written
in English via the online submission system. The
submission of a paper implies that the paper is original and has not been
submitted to elsewhere for possible publication.
There is no page limit for the submission. All submissions will be
peer-reviewed by experts in the field based on
originality, significance, quality and clarity. Authors should use the Latex
style files or MS-Word templates provided by
the Spring Lecture Notes to format their papers. The ICNC'06 and FSKD'06
conference proceedings will be published in
Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) and Lecture Notes in
Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), respectively.
Furthermore, a selected number of authors will be invited to expand and
revise their papers for possible inclusions in peer
-reviewed international journals or edited books.
