Dear Prospective Author: This is just a friendly reminder that the deadline for the IRI 2007 paper submission is Friday, April 13, 2007 (US Pacific Daylight Savings Time). Afterward, the paper reviewing starts immediately without delay, in order to meet the publishing deadline. Again, all information regarding paper submission requirements and channels (for the main conference or individual workshops) are elaborated in the conference web page at this URL: http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri07/ ********** WHY IEEE-IRI? *********** Please click on the following links to view the newly uploaded slides for additional reasons you may want to attend our IRI conference. http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri07/docs/SoSE.ppt (Powerpoint) http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri07/docs/SoSE.pdf (PDF) or visit the website. ************************************ [Apologies if you received multiple copies because of cross-posting] Chengcui Zhang Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Computer and Information Sciences University of Alabama at Birmingham =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= *** Paper submission deadline: April 13, 2007 (FIRM) ----------------------------------------------------------------- The 2007 IEEE International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration (IEEE IRI-2007) Sponsored by: The IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society August 13-15, 2007, Hilton Hotel, Las Vegas, USA http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri07/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- With the rapidly increasing volumes of information in digital form, we are constantly faced with newer challenges with regards to efficiently using it and extracting useful knowledge from it. Information reuse and integration (IRI) seeks to maximally exploit such available information to create new knowledge and to reuse it for addressing newer challenges. It plays a pivotal role in the capture, maintenance, integration, validation, extrapolation, and application of knowledge to augment decision capabilities in various application domains. The IEEE International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration conference serves as a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address real-world problems with real-world solutions. The IEEE IRI will feature contributed as well as invited papers. Theoretical and applied papers are both included in this call. The conference program will include special sessions, open forum workshops and keynote speeches. Several funding agency program directors - including NSF, ONR, et al. - will present an open panel discussion entitled Funding Opportunities in Information Reuse and Systems Engineering. The conference includes, but is not limited to, the areas listed below: - Large Scale Data and System Integration - Component-Based Design and Reuse - Unifying Data Models (UML, XML, etc.) and Ontologies - Database Integration - Structured/Semi-structured Data - Middleware & Web Services - Reuse in Software Engineering - Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery - Sensory and Information Fusion - Reuse in Modeling & Simulation - Automation, Integration and Reuse across Various Applications - Information Security & Privacy - Survivable Systems & Infrastructures - AI & Decision Support Systems - Heuristic Optimization and Search - Knowledge Acquisition and Management - Fuzzy and Neural Systems - Soft Computing - Evolutionary Computing - Case-Based Reasoning - Natural Language Understanding - Knowledge Management and E-Government - Command & Control Systems (C4ISR) - Human-Machine Information Systems - Space and Robotic Systems - Biomedical & Healthcare Systems - Homeland Security & Critical Infrastructure Protection - Manufacturing Systems & Business Process Engineering - Multimedia Systems - Service-Oriented Architecture - Autonomous Agents in Web-based Systems - Information Integration in Grid Computing Environment - Information Integration in Mobile Computing Environment - Information Integration in Ubiquitous Computing Environment - Systems of Systems - Semantic Web and Emerging Applications - Information Reuse, Integration and Sharing in Collaborative Environments Instructions for Authors: ------------------------- Papers reporting original and unpublished research results pertaining to the above and related topics are solicited. Full paper manuscripts must be in English of length 4 to 6 pages (using the IEEE two-column template). Submissions should include the title, author(s), affiliation(s), e-mail address(es), tel/fax numbers, abstract, and postal address(es) on the first page. Papers should be submitted at the conference web site: http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri07. If web submission is not possible, manuscripts should be sent as an attachment via email to either of the Program Chairs (mailing address available on the conference website) on or before the deadline date of April 13, 2007. The attachment must be in .pdf (preferred) or word.doc format. The subject of the email must be IEEE IRI 2007 Submission. Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Authors should certify that their papers represent substantially new work and are previously unpublished. Paper submission implies the intent of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper, if accepted. Authors of selected papers that are also presented at the conference will be invited to submit expanded versions of their papers for review for publication in an approved special issue of the IEEE SMC Transactions, part C, on IRI to be published in 2008.
