[DMANET] submission deadline extension for CSDM 2010 in Paris (oct 2010)

Submission deadline extension to February 2, 2010.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
First International Conference on Complex Systems Design and Management
(CSDM 2010)
------------------------------------------------------------------------

October 27-29, 2010 - Paris , Cite Universitaire (France)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

//Call for papers//

The management of large-scale complex industrial systems has a
considerable strategic importance for an important number of
enterprises (most notably in Europe and North America). This spawned
the relatively new academic field of "system architecture &
engineering", producing a body of research that allows engineers to
manage the increasing complexity of the technical systems they
design. By its very nature, this field is at the interface between
industry and academia, and requires its practitioners to be well
versed in industrial application-related as well as theoretical
knowledge. The ambition of the CSDM conference is to be the meeting
point of reference for the industrial and academic environments
working in the design and management of complex industrial systems.

*Important dates*

- Submission deadline: February 2, 2010 (was: Jan. 22)
- Acceptance notice for industrial contributions: March 15, 2010
- Acceptance notice for academics contributions: March 31, 2010
- Final version submission deadline: May 31, 2010
- Conference: October 27-29, 2010

*Submission procedure*

As the CSDM conference is both industrial and academic, there will be
different submission procedures according to the type of submitted
contributions. Industrial submissions are aimed to present good
practices in industry, shared experiences and case studies: either a
12-pages PDF-formatted paper or a 15-slides PowerPoint presentation is
acceptable for selection purposes. Scientific submissions are aimed to
present innovative methodological, technical or scientific results: a
12-pages PDF-formatted paper is necessary for selection purposes.
Subject to contribution acceptance, inclusion on the Springer
proceedings book requires a 12-pages paper formatted according to
specific Springer style files. More details can be found on the
conference website.

*Proceedings and publications*

The conference proceedings will be published in a dedicated 2-volume
edited book by Springer-Verlag (Science and Engineering). Selected
papers will be published in special issues appearing in international
journals covering the conference topics. We already have an agreement
with Concurrent Engineering Research and Applications.
