Review Process:
Each paper was reviewed at least by 3 independent reviewers. The WSEAS
Secretariat sent each paper to 5 reviewers. Some papers received reviews from 5
different referees. The WSEAS Secretariat forwarded these comments by
personalized emails to the responsible for the correspondence author. The full
list of the reviewers will be available in the web page:
http://www.worldses.org/reviewers.htm
Additional features of the conferences :
1) Publication of the Proceedings in 3 media: hard-copy, CD, E-Library
(A)
Five books in the "Electrical and Computer Engineering Series" of WSEAS
(see
details, contents, author indices and editors below) with ISBN and ISSN
indexed by the major Citation Indices (ISI ranked):
www.worldses.org/indexes
(B)
CD-ROM Proceedings with pages' numbers
with ISBN and ISSN indexed by the major Citation Indexes:
www.worldses.org/indexes
(C)
E-Library:
http://www.wseas.org/online
and possible, for a very small number of papers:
(D)
JOURNAL PUBLICATION: Expanded and enhanced
versions of papers published in the conference proceedings also going to be
considered for possible publication in one of the WSEAS journals that
participate in the major International Scientific Indices (Elsevier, Scopus, EI,
Compendex, INSPEC, CSA .... see:
www.worldses.org/indexes ).
2)
WSEAS provides a very important tool to all the participants; a permanent
username and password for accessing WSEAS conference proceedings on-line for
ever.
3) The Participants received numerous coffee-breaks, and a Welcome Drink
4) Cultural and social activities as customary in WSEAS events.
5) The conference Books (Hard-Copy Proceedings), CD-ROM proceedings and Journals
(with selected papers) published by WSEAS Press continue to sell for a long time
after the meeting has taken place. This is another demonstration of the prestige
the scientific community attribute to the meetings organized by the WSEAS.
For example, they are distributed via AMAZON:

JOURNALS:
What is the Permanent Procedure for additional Journal publication for a very
small number of High-Quality Papers presented in the WSEAS Conferences in China
(after the recommendation of Chairmen). So, the authors with accepted &
presented papers received the following e-mail:
We have started now the procedure for the evaluation of the extended versions of
your papers for possible inclusion in the WSEAS journals after new rounds of
review.
INTRODUCTION: You know that our goal is to maintain very strong
international journals, to increase the impact of our beloved WSEAS
Transactions, really top journals as they really are. To this end, we need only
high quality papers, breakthrough works of archival value, i.e. papers that are
well written from any point of view, completed studies (with their numerical
examples or experiments that must be compared with the previous results in the
literature), excellent English language and of course correct WSEAS format. The
papers also must be substantially extended version of the paper that was
presented in the conference (with more than 40% new material). We need papers
that will attract the attention of other scholars citing them increasing our
impact. In the next few years, the WSEAS transactions must be in every academic
library, in every corner of the earth. To this end, we need your high quality
contribution.
HOW TO PROCEED: a) Check very carefully if your idea is really important,
breakthrough in your field and can appear in a Journal of the quality and the
level of the WSEAS Transactions. If you doubt, do not send it so easily. Your
paper must not be only a good idea. It must be a complete study with theoretical
background, complete bibliographical references; without grammatical and
syntactical errors. For theoretical works: full comparison with previous
published papers is necessary. We need numerical examples, applicability of the
method, originality, novelty and directions for future research. For
experimental or computational works: full comparison with previous published
papers is necessary. We need real experiments with the necessary documentation,
while for computational work, we need full benchmarks. Of course along
discussions for the applicability of the method, originality, novelty and
directions for future research.
b) Complete the extended version of your paper until February 28, 2008
and upload it via
http://............... (the full web address was given only to authors
that presented a paper)
until February 28, 2008
c) If your extended version fulfills the paragraph a), then our Editors will
send it to 3 independent Reviewers outside your country. If not, our Editors are
entitled to reject it from this early stage informing you properly. The positive
answer of the 3 reviewers is necessary (attention: 2 yes and 1 no implies NO,
i.e. rejection).
d) Our Editors will collect the reviewers' remarks and will send them again to
you for acceptance/ acceptance after minor revision / acceptance after major
revision / rejection
e) Possibly new rounds of review will be needed.
f) No additional fee is needed in case of acceptance.
After all this procedure, the accepted papers that come from WSEAS Conferences
in Canada will be published in the various WSEAS Transactions. IF you miss the
deadline of February 28, 2008 , or if your paper was not presented in the
WSEAS Conferences, THEN: you can upload it quite independently as regular paper
from the WSEAS Site for the Journals:
http://www.worldses.org/journals/index.html
The final list of the papers must have the approval of our Editors and 3
Reviewers, and of course the Editor-in-Chief of the particular Journal.
We want only authors that presented their papers to complete this web form:
http://............... (the full web address was given only to
authors that presented a paper) So, in this form you will need a password (the
password was given only to the authors that presented a paper).
BEST STUDENT PAPERS:
The Organizing Committee received the forms that the Session Chairmen filled in
after the end of their sessions and after additional evaluation and discussion
decided the following.
The Criteria were:
a) Originality and scientific impact
b) Good presentation
c) Paper presented by a student
The results of this evaluation
are:
