Submission of Papers

The World Congress on Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing (NABIC'09) brings together international researchers,developers, practitioners, and users. The aim is to build a 3 day platform where the concerned researchers /academicians /engineers from diverge regions of the world would converge to share their excitement and paradoxically, frustration towards the pursuit of building up of machines that would not be strictly algorithmic in nature and are capable of handling ambiguity, uncertainty etc. by applying common sense.

The theme for this symposium is "Nurturing Intelligent Computing Towards Advancement of Machine Intelligence".

The aim of NaBIC is to serve as a forum to present current and future work as well as to exchange research ideas in this field. NABIC'09 invites authors to submit their original and unpublished work that demonstrates current research in all areas of Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing, as well as proposals for workshops, industrial presentations, demonstrations, and tutorials.

Authors should submit an electronic version of papers using the submission system which will be available very soon.

Submitted papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical, experimental or application nature, or be unique experience reports.

Papers must be submitted no later than September 30, 2008 and electronic submission in PDF is required. The page limit for a full-length paper should consist of six pages.

Short papers describing novel research visions, work-in-progress or less mature results are also welcome, with the limit of 4 pages.

All submissions should be in the IEEE 8.5 two-column format. Papers should contain up to 5 keywords. Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance,

clarity, and soundness, and will be reviewed by at least three independent reviewers.
