ICSI 2010 - The International Conference on Swarm Intelligence (ICSI 2010)

Requested by many authors and colleagues, the ICSI'2010 organizing committee has decided to extend the deadline of paper submission to

**January 31, 2010**

If you're interested in submitting a paper to ICSI'2010, please prepare your manuscript according to conference paper format as soon as possibe
and then submit it before the extended line (January 31) which will not be extended any more.

In addition, please visit conference website at http://www.cil.pku.edu.cn for details about conference organization, venue,
visa to entry, local acommondation and transportation, and social tours.

We are looking forward to see you in Beijing!

Kind regards,
