PURPOSE / HISTORY:
This set of joint conferences is the largest annual gathering
of researchers in computer science, computer engineering and
applied computing. We anticipate to have 2,000 or more
attendees from over 85 countries participating at the Congress.
A number of individual research tracks of WORLDCOMP have been
held for many years; for example, PDPTA has been held annually
since 1995 (PDPTA'10 is the 16th annual conference); ERSA has
been held annually since 2001 (ERSA'10 is the 10th annual
conference); ICAI has been held annually since 1999 (ICAI'10
is the 12th annual conference); other tracks of WORLDCOMP
Congress have similar records.
The motivation behind this federated conference is to assemble
a spectrum of affiliated research conferences into a coordinated
research meeting held in a common place at a common time. The
main goal is to provide a forum for exchange of ideas in a
number of research areas that interact. The model used to form
these annual conferences facilitates communication among
researchers from all over the world in different fields of
computer science, computer engineering and applied computing.
Both inward research (core areas of computer science and
engineering) and outward research (multi-disciplinary,
inter-disciplinary, and applications) will be covered during
the conferences. 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.
WORLDCOMP'10 will be composed of research presentations, keynote
lectures, invited presentations, tutorials, panel discussions,
and poster presentations. In recent past, keynote/tutorial/panel
speakers have included: Prof. David A. Patterson (pioneer/computer
architecture, U. of California, Berkeley), Dr. K. Eric Drexler
(known as Father of Nanotechnology), Prof. John H. Holland (known
as Father of Genetic Algorithms; U. of Michigan), Prof. Ian Foster
(known as Father of Grid Computing; U. of Chicago & ANL),
Prof. Ruzena Bajcsy (pioneer/VR, U. of California, Berkeley),
Prof. Barry Vercoe (Founding member of MIT Media Lab, MIT),
Dr. Jim Gettys (known as X-man, developer of X Window System,
xhost; OLPC), Prof. John Koza (known as Father of Genetic
Programming, Stanford U.), Prof. Brian D. Athey (NIH Program
Director, U. of Michigan), Prof. Viktor K. Prasanna (pioneer,
U. of Southern California), Dr. Jose L. Munoz (NSF Program
Director and Consultant), Prof. Jun Liu (Broad Institute of
MIT & Harvard U.), Anousheh Ansari (CEO, Prodea Systems & first
female private space explorer), and many other distinguished
speakers. To get a feeling about the conferences' atmosphere,

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 1, 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). 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.)
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. Finally, the name of the conference that the paper
is being submitted to must be stated on the first page.
Full papers will be evaluated for originality, significance,
clarity, impact, and soundness. Each paper will be refereed
by two experts in the field who are independent of the
conference program committee. The referees' evaluations will
then be reviewed by one member of the program committee who
will recommend a decision to the chair of the track that
the paper has been submitted to. The chair will make the
final decision. Lastly, the final papers will be reviewed
by one member of the program committee.
All accepted papers will be published in the respective
conference proceedings (in both, printed book 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.
PROPOSAL FOR ORGANIZING SESSIONS/WORKSHOPS:
Each session will have at least 6 paper presentations from
different authors (12 papers in the case of workshops). The
session chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their
sessions; including, soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, ...
The names of session chairs will appear as Associate Editors
in the conference proceedings and on the cover of the books.
Proposals to organize sessions should include the following
information: name and address (+ email) of proposer, his/her
biography, title of session, a 100-word description of the
topic of the session, the name of the conference the session
is submitted for consideration, and a short description on
how the session will be advertised (in most cases, session
proposers solicit papers from colleagues and researchers
whose work is known to the session proposer). email your
session proposal to H. R. Arabnia ( hra at cs.uga.edu ). We would
like to receive the session proposals by January 16, 2010.
IMPORTANT DATES:
Jan. 16, 2010: Proposals for organizing sessions/workshops
March 1, 2010: Submission of papers (about 5 to 7 pages)

MEMBERS OF PROGRAM AND ORGANIZING COMMITTEES:
The Program Committee includes members of chapters of World
Academy of Science (chapters: supercomputing; scientific
computing; AI; imaging science; databases; simulation;
software eng.; embedded systems; internet & web technologies;
communications; computer security; & bioinformatics.) The
Program Committee for individual conferences is currently
being formed. Many who have already joined the committees
of individual tracks are renowned leaders, scholars,
researchers, scientists and practitioners of the highest
ranks; many are directors of research labs., fellows of
various societies, heads/chairs of departments, program
directors of research funding agencies, deans and provosts.
Program Committee members are expected to have established
a strong and documented research track record. Those
interested in joining the Program Committee should email
H. R. Arabnia (hra at cs.uga.edu) the following information for
consideration/evaluation: Name, affiliation and position,
complete mailing address, email address, a one-page biography
that includes research expertise and the name of the
conference offering to help with.
LOCATION OF CONFERENCES:
The conferences will be held at Monte Carlo Resort, Las Vegas,
Nevada, USA (with any overflows at other near-by hotels).
This is a mega hotel with excellent conference facilities and
over 3,000 rooms. It is minutes from the airport with 24-hour
shuttle service to and from the airport. This hotel has many
recreational attractions, including: waterfalls, spa, pools,
sunning decks, Easy River, wave pool, nightly shows, many
restaurants, ... The negotiated room rate for conference
attendees is very reasonable. The hotel is adjacent to
CityCenter ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CityCenter ) which
is the largest private development in the United States' history
(costing over $11 Billion) with access to additional recreational
and entertainment attractions.
