About Chengdu, China

Located in southwest China, Chengdu is the capital of the Sichuan province of China. It is the 5th most populous city in China. It is also an important economic center as well as transportation and communication hubs in China. The Chengdu's cuisine is considered to be the most outstanding in China. It also has lots of tea houses and bars. One of the key industries is the Tranditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It also houses major pharmaceutical R&D centers and hi-tech companies like Intel, Microsoft, Lenovo, etc. More detailed information on Chengdu can be found at the following official website: http://www.chengdu.gov.cn/echengdu.

   
Invited Sessions
The conference will feature invited sessions on specialized topics of interests. The invited sessions are intended to usher in, in-depth discussions in special areas relevant to the conference theme. The session organizers will coordinate the associated review process. The conference proceedings will include all papers from the invited sessions.
   
Paper Submission
Papers must be written in English and should describe original work. Papers should be submitted in pdf format through the online submission website by January 27, 2008. The length of the paper is limited to a maximum of 6 pages (US letter size, single spacing, Times Roman of font size 10, double columns format), including figures, tables and references.
