Paper Submission

Papers must be written in the correct format:  MS Word.doc  or LaTeX  or LaTeX2   and must be uploaded using the following form as .doc, or .pdf file. As in all the Previous Conferences, all the accepted and registered Papers will be indexed as peer-reviewed publications in ISI and SCOPUS and will be published in CD-ROM and Book (hard-copy). Extended Versions of all the Invited and Regular Papers will be published after the conference in 21 ISI Indexed Journals. Authors that prefer their extended version to appear in a Springer Verlag Volume can contact us after the conference at support@inase.org. Only full papers will be promoted to reviewers for thorough peer review. For the review process only active scholars with many recent publications in ISI and/or SCOPUS will be used and the list with their names will be published in the Proceedings: Hard-Copy and CD-ROM as in all our previous conferences.  The deadline for paper submission expired. We do not accept papers any longer.
