Paper submission

Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers including results, figures and references. Paper will be accepted only by electronic submission through the conference web site. Prospective authors are expected to present their paper at the conference.

Proposal for special session

ICNN 2008 will include a number of special sessions. Proposal for special sessions must include a title, rationale, session outline, contact information for the session chairs(s), a list of authors who have agreed to present paper in the session, and abstract of each paper. If any of these requirements is missing in a proposal, it will not be accepted. Proposals for special sessions should be submitted to the conference secretariat before March 31, 2008.
