1st Call for Papers - 2nd International Symposium on Distributed Computing
and Artificial Intelligence (DCAI'09)
June 10th ā€“ 12th , 2009 - Salamanca - Spain 
http://dcai.usal.es/

The International Symposium on Distributed Computing and Artificial
Intelligence 2009 is an annual forum that will bring together ideas,
projects, lessons, etc. associated with distributed computing, artificial
intelligence and its applications in different themes. This meeting will be
held at the University of Salamanca in June 10-12th, 2009.

This symposium will be organized by the Biomedicine, Intelligent System and
Educational Technology Research Group (http://bisite.usal.es/) of the
University of Salamanca. The technology transfer in this field is still a
challenge and for that reason this type of contributions will be specially
considered in this symposium. This conference is the forum in which to
present application of innovative techniques to complex problems.

The workshop will be organized into the 10th International Work-Conference
on Artificial Neural Networks (IWANN2009). (http://iwann.usal.es/)

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Everyone interested in participating and presenting his/her work in this
workshop may do it by sending a contribution. The papers should be written
in English. There are three possibilities: 

1- Long papers:
A maximum length of 8 pages. They must consist of original, relevant and
previously unpublished sound research results related to any of the topics
of the conference. 

2- Short papers: 
A maximum length of 4 pages. They can be project report, a summary of a PhD
thesis, or work in progress. 

3- Doctoral consortium:
PhD students are invited to present the topic and progress of their
research, in order to obtain feedback from a panel of experts. The length of
these papers should be no longer than 8 pages.

- Papers Format 
Papers must be prepared according to the LNCS template of Springer (MS-WORD
or LaTex format) without page numbers.

- Publication
All papers accepted will be published in an special volume of IWANN in
Lecture Notes in Computer Science ( LNCS Springer Verlag) . IWANN is
included in the ranking of the best conferences established by the Computer
Science Conference Ranking based on the "Estimated Impact of Conference
(EIC)", concretely in position 55 among 620 considered (in the Artificial
Intelligence field). Therefore the papers will be indexed by CiteSeer.IST ,
and by the organization Computing Research and Education Association (CORE)
.
