JOURNALS:
BEST PAPERS: The authors of the
Best Papers will be invited to send extended versions of their papers after the
conference to the Editor-in-Chiefs of WSEAS Journals. These extended versions
might be published in the WSEAS Journals after the conference with additional
review. This very limited number of high-quality papers will be announced in the
Post-Conference report of the
Conference.
No-show authors will be excluded from any further publication in WSEAS Journals,
regardless of the quality of their papers. Additionally, they will be required
to pay extra shipping and handling fees in order for the organizing committee to
mail out their registration receipt, CD-ROM proceedings, and one volume of the
hard-copy proceedings.These journals are covered by:
