Call for Papers: IAENG International Conference on Control andAutomation (ICCA 2009)

CFP: IAENG International Conference on Control and Automation ICCA
2009

From: International Association of Engineers

The 2009 IAENG International Conference on Control and Automation
18-20 March, 2009, Hong Kong
http://www.iaeng.org/IMECS2009/ICCA2009.html

The conference ICCA'09 is held under the International MultiConference
of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2009. The IMECS 2009 is organized
by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), and serves as
good platforms for the engineering community members to meet with each
other and to exchange ideas. The last conference in 2008 has attracted
a total of over one thousand participants from over 50 countries.

All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN:
978-988-17012-2-0). The abstracts will be indexed and available at
major academic databases. The accepted papers will also be considered
for publication in the special issues of the journal Engineering
Letters, in IAENG journals and in edited books. Revised and expanded
version of the selected papers may also be included as book chapters
in the standalone edited books under the framework of cooperation
between IAENG and Springer. For reference, the following IAENG post
conference edited books, Trends in Intelligent Systems and Computer
Engineering, Advances in Communication Systems and Electrical
Engineering, and Advances in Industrial Engineering and Operations
Research, have been published by Springer.

It is our target that the reviewing process and the result
notification for each submitted manuscript can be completed within one
month from its submission. The reviewing process is to ensure the
quality of the accepted papers in the WCE congress. The conferences
have enjoyed high reputation among many research colleagues ( for
example, see the http://cs.conference-ranking.net/ or http://www.conference-ranking.com/
or http://www.conference-ranking.org/cs.html ).
