considered among the most important scholars
in computational fluid mechanics worlwide -- see them in the above
photo)
were also Plenary Speakers in the Recent WSEAS Conference
in Fluid Mechanics. See details...
The WSEAS events always
attract the most famous university
professors as Plenary Speakers.
This is one of the major characteristics of the WSEAS Events.

GREAT COMPETITION
The WSEAS Organizing Committee announced during the Banquet a
competition among its members and friends:
Write an article (post-conference report) with theme:
"The role and importance of the WSEAS in the
dissemination of
scientific knowledge and the knowledge transfer: My personal
experience".
This report must be based exclusively on your personal experience
in some WSEAS meeting and might contain photos also. No specific format
is determined; however your text must not be
less than 100 words or one A4 page
and should be sent directly to WSEAS until 30 September 2008 by email
to

The winners will be announced on the web.
WSEAS provides a very important
tool to all the participants
A permanent username and password for accessing WSEAS conference proceedings
on-line for ever.

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
Best Papers (Evaluated by committees of 6
international experts, different for each discipline)

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.

JOURNALS:
What is the Permanent Procedure for additional Journal publication for a very
small number of High-Quality Papers presented in the WSEAS Conferences (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 and upload it via
http://............... (the full web address was given only to authors
who presented a paper)
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.
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 who presented a paper) So, in this form you will need a password (the
password was given only to the authors who presented a paper).

.: SOCIAL
PART (Coffee-Breaks, Banquet, Excursions)
6 coffee-breaks - light lunches: Coffee, Tea, Milk, Sandwiches, Sweets,
Cakes, Pastries, Juices were available for the Guests during the conference.
A wonderful Gala with more than 50 different courses (self-service buffet) were
given to the participants in the evening of the second day of the conferences.
Most of the participants danced and enjoyed themselves during this fantastic
