- Other emerging topics


IMPORTANT DATES:

March 27, 2012:   Submission of full papers (about 7 pages)
April 6, 2012:       Notification of acceptance (+/- three days)
May 10, 2012:      Final papers + Copyright/Consent + Registration
July 16-19, 2012:  The 2012 International Workshop on Quantified

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers by sending
email to pavlos.eirinakis@mail.wvu.edu
Submissions must be emailed by April 1, 2012 and they must be in
pdf formats (about 7 pages including all figures, tables, and references -

Contact Author and a maximum of 5 topical keywords that would best
represent the content of the paper.

Each paper will be peer-reviewed by two experts in the field for
originality, significance, clarity, impact, and soundness.
You ARE permitted to submit work that has appeared before,
but indicate the same in your submission.
