Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA 2002) is an International workshop that brings together international soft computing / computational intelligence/ artificial Intelligence  researchers, developers, practitioners, and users. The aim of ISDA 2002 is to serve as a forum to present current and future work as well as to exchange research ideas in this field.

 

ISDA 2002 invites authors to submit their original and unpublished work that demonstrate current research in all areas of soft computing and computational intelligence including design of artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary algorithms, hybrid systems, agents, and their applications in science, technology, business and commercial.

     Paper Submissions & Publication

Paper Submission

Authors of contributed and invited papers are requested to submit, before February 28, 2002,an article not exceeding six pages of their research  presentation  (each additional page costs US$50.00 per page).  Please type each  article  single spaced on one side of 8.5x11 size paper with one inch margin on all sides. 

 

Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. All full papers are to be submitted in PDF, postscript or MS word version electronically to: isda02@softcomputing.net 

 

Hard copies should be sent only if electronic submission is not possible. All papers will be peer reviewed by at least two independent referees of the international program committee of ISDA'02. 

 

Extended version of selected papers will be considered as book chapters for a special edited volume which will be published in the "Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing" by Springer Verlag, Germany. Authors should indicate  whether they wish their papers to be considered for this special volume.

 

Extended version of outstanding papers will be invited for the  Elsevier Science International On-line " Applied Soft Computing Journal" (official journal of the World Federation on Soft Computing) . The  paper will be selected by the International Technical Committee of ISDA 2002.
