ICCI 2005

The ICCI 2005 International Congress on Computational Intelligence is a 
high-quality, high-impact Computational Intelligence  conference, held 
at the Corporación Universitaria del Sinu at Montería, Colombia. The 
ICCI 2005 is organized by The Colombian  Network of Computational 
Intelligence, Red CIC, an international organization dedicated to the 
promotion of scientific  research and industrial development in the 
Computational Intelligence area.
The upcoming meeting in this conference series follows the great success 
of ICCI 2001 and ICCI 2003 held in the Universidad  Nacional de Colombia 
at Medellin. The aim of ICCI 2005 is to bring together researchers and 
practitioners from diverse  fields, such as computer science, 
information technology, business, education, human factors, system 
engineering, electric-electronic engineering and industry to (1) examine 
the design principles and performance characteristics of various  
approaches in Computational Intelligence technology, and (2) increase 
the cross-fertilization and applications of ideas on  the development of 
Computational Intelligence systems in different domains in Colombia and 
Latin America. The nature of  Computational Intelligence is that there 
is a wide diversity of techniques and applications and it is hoped that 
this  diversity will be exhibited in the papers accepted.


PAPER SUBMISSION

* High-quality papers in all CI related areas are solicited, among 
which, papers exploring new directions will receive a

careful and supportive review.
* All submitted papers will be peer reviewed on the basis of technical 
quality, relevance, significance, and clarity. After

acceptance for presentation the papers will be published in the 
proceedings (provided that at least one author is registered

for the conference).
* Proposals for special sessions/workshops are welcome. Persons 
interested in organising a session/workshop should contact

the program chairs.
* To submit your manuscript take into account that:
    o ICCI 2005 will accept ONLY on-line submission of papers, of up to 
8 pages, written in English or Spanish.
    o The only accepted formats for submissions are Postscript or PDF 
formats.

Further submission instructions are provided in the conference web site.

STUDENT BEST PAPER AWARD COMPETITION

Two categories (undergraduate and postgraduate) will be considered for
The Student Best Paper Award Competition. The first listed author of each
paper is the student who will make the oral presentation. Only
contributions with a maximum of 3 co-authors will be considered.
The student must have contributed at least with the 50% of the scientific
work. All participating papers must be accompanied by the advisor's
nomination.
The nominated papers will be reviewed through the usual review process and
by a panel of experts chosen from the Program Committee. Based on these
reviews, five papers for each category will be selected as finalists for
the Awards. The winners of the student best paper competition will be
selected at the conference and will be based on both the written paper and
the final oral presentation by the student. The winners will be announced
at the conference closing session. A written certification will be
awarded to the winners.
