CALL FOR PAPERS

ICNC'06-FSKD'06 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists and researchers to present the state of the art of computational algorithms inspired from nature, including biological, ecological, and physical systems. It is an exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of techniques and methods are being studied for dealing with large, complex, and dynamic problems. The joint conferences will feature plenary speeches given by worldwide renowned scholars, regular sessions with broad coverage, and some special sessions focused on cross-fertilization over these exciting and yet closely-related areas.

Specific areas include, but are not limited to neural computation, evolutionary computation, quantum computation, DNA computation, chemical computation, information processing in cells and tissues, molecular computation, computation with words, fuzzy computation, granular computation, artificial life, swarm intelligence, ants colony, artificial immune systems, etc., with applications to knowledge discovery, finance, operations research, and more.

Submission of Papers

Prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality manuscripts written in English via the online submission system. The submission of a paper implies that the paper is original and has not been submitted to elsewhere for possible publication. There is no page limit for the submission. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field based on originality, significance, quality and clarity. Authors should use the Latex style files or MS-Word templates provided by the Spring Lecture Notes to format their papers. The ICNC'06 and FSKD'06 conference proceedings will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) and Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), respectively. Furthermore, a selected number of authors will be invited to expand and revise their papers for possible inclusions in peer-reviewed international journals or edited books.
