eann 2009 - The 11th International Conference of Engineering Applications of Neural Networks eann2009

The 11th International Conference of Engineering Applications of Neural Networks eann2009

Authors are invited to submit original, English-language research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. Papers should be no longer than 15 pages formatted in Springerï¿?ï¿?s single colunm format (detailed instructions for submissions to follow). Theoretical results are welcome, but in the spirit of the previous EANN conferences, the paper should concentrate on the application of Neural Networks rather than just the algorithm or the theory.

Submitted papers will be refereed by at least three reviewers for quality, correctness, originality, and relevance. Notification and reviews will be communicated via email. Accepted papers will be presented at the conference and included in the published proceedings by Springer's CCIS (Communications in Computer and Information Science) Series, www.springer.com/series/7899. Please follow the instructions on Springer's LNCS webpage www.springer.com/lncs when formatting to ensure that your paper is included in the proceedings.

Proposals for special sessions that examine emerging, innovative, or otherwise provocative issues within the conference area are alos encouraged. Session proposals should include a 1-2 page summary of the topic and the names and affiliations of 2-3 panelists who have made a commitment to participate. Both industry and academic session panel members are very welcome.

Proposals for 90-minute tutorials are also invited on relevant topics. Tutorial proposals less than 5 pages long are invited that identify the intended audience and give enough information to give a sense of what will be covered.

A fully electronic review process is in place. Technical papers, panel and tutorial proposals should be submitted electronically by the 30th of April 2009. In particular, before submitting a paper (in pdf, postscript or MS Word), an author should submit an abstract by the 30th of April 2009 (in order to get a paper id and a password). Panel and tutorial proposals should be sent by email to the general chair. Full papers must be submitted to the review system by 30th of April 2009. Notification of acceptance and reviewers comments will be sent by 21st of May 2009. The camera-ready papers must be submitted by 4th of June 2009

Registration fees must be received by the 4th June 2009 to guarantee inclusion of accepted papers.

Please email the general chair Prof Dominic Palmer-Brown eann2009-AT-uel.ac.uk if you are interested in chairing special sessions, submitting papers or serving on the programme committee.

Submit abstracts and papers must be submitted at http://www.uel.ac.uk/eann2009/submissions.htm.

If you have any questions related to the submission process please email Dr Chrisina Draganova c.draganova-AT-uel.ac.uk.
