GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION
Original papers from the above-mentioned
areas will be considered. This includes
three categories of submissions:
1)
Original
and unpublished research
2)
Reports
of innovative artificial intelligence applications in the arts, sciences,
engineering, business, government, education and industry
3)
Reports
of successful technology transfer to new problem domains
Each category of submissions will be
reviewed by peer groups appropriate to that category. Accepted papers in all categories will be
published in the symposium proceedings.
Expanded versions of selected papers from all categories will be
considered for publication in the ACM/SIGAPP quarterly Applied Computing Review
or one of the other participating SIGs' publications. Submission guidelines must be strictly
followed:
1)
Submit
the original manuscripts to the SAC 2009 submission systems. The electronic file format should be either
WORD, Post Script or PDF (PDF preferred).
2)
The
author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the
paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. This is to facilitate
blind review.
Only
the paper title should be shown at the first page without the author's
information.
3)
The
body of paper should not exceed 4,000 words (approximately 15 pages,
double-spaced).
4)
A
separate cover sheet attached to each copy should show the title of the paper,
the author(s) name(s) and affiliation(s), and the address (including e-mail,
telephone, and FAX) to which correspondence should be sent.. A few key words should be provided.
5)
NOTE:
A paper cannot be sent to more than one track.
JOURNAL PUBLICATION
Some selected papers will be invited for
publication in a special issue of International Journal of Fuzzy Systems
(http://www.fuzzy.org.tw/English/default.htm).
