FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS

International Conference of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering 2007 (ICCMSE 2007), HOTEL PANORAMA, Chania, Crete, Greece, 27 October - 1 November 2007
URL Address: http://www.iccmse.org/

In the past decades many significant insights have been made in several areas of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering. New problems and methologies have appeared. There is permanently a need in these fields for the advancement of information exchange. This undoubtedly beneficial practice of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary interactions should be expressed by an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary conference on  Computational Methods  in Sciences and Engineering. ICCMSE 2007 aims at playing the above role and for this reason the aim of the conference is to bring together computational scientists and engineers from several disciplines in order to share methods, methologies and ideas.

The topics to be covered include (but are not limited to):

Computational Mathematics, Theoretical and Computational Physics and Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Computational Engineering and Mechanics,  Computational Biology and Medicine, Computational Geosciences and Meteorology, Computational Economics and Finance, Financial Forecasting, Scientific Computation, High Performance Computing, Parallel and Distributed Computing, Visualization, Problem Solving Environments, Software Tools, Advanced Numerical Algorithms, Modelling and Simulation of Complex System, Web-based Simulation and Computing, Grid-based Simulation and Computing, Computational Grids, Fuzzy Logic, Hybrid Computational Methods, Data Mining and Information Retrieval, Virtual Reality, Reliable Computing, Image Processing, Computational  Science and Education etc.

Proceedings:

Proceedings: We are proud to announce that the Proceedings of ICCMSE 2007 will be published in the very famous AIP (American Institute of Physics) Conference Proceedings.

• Invited Papers will be published in a Special Volume of the AIP (American Institute of Physics) Conference Proceedings
• Short papers (4 A4 pages) will be published in a Special Volume of the AIP (American Institute of Physics) Conference Proceedings

Each participant of ICCMSE 2007 will receive 2 Volumes of the Proceedings of ICCMSE 2007. The First Volume contains the papers of Invited Lecturers and Second Volume contains the short papers of the participants

  • Journal of Mathematical Chemistry (Springer-Verlag)
  • MATCH (Communications in Mathematical and in Computer Chemistry)
  • Applied Mathematics and Computation (Elsevier Science Publishers)
  • Molecular Simulation (Taylor & Francis)
  • International Journal of Quantum Chemistry (Wiley & Sons)
  • The Journal of Supercomputing (Kluwer Academic Publishers)
  • Mathematical and Computer Modelling (Elsevier Science Publishers)
  • Computing Letters (VSP/Brill)

Call for Sessions, Workshops and Minisymposia

Each session’s organizer will be responsible for the selection of papers. Each session or workshop should include at least 8 papers (from which 2 papers can be from the Organiser or his team). Each minisymposium should include at least 10 papers (from which 2 papers can be from the Organiser or his team).
The Session and the Symposium organisers will have benefits that are negotiable with the General Chair Professor Theodore Simos (tsimos@mail.ariadne-t.gr and iccmse@uop.gr)

DEADLINE FOR MINISYMPOSIA, SESSIONS AND OR WORKSHOP PROPOSAL: 15 June 2007 (PLEASE REFER TO THE NOTES IN THE PAGES OF CALL FOR PAPERS AND IMPORTANT DATES)
