Authors are invited to submit their papers in English of up to 10 pages, presenting the results of original research or innovative practical applications. Practical experiences with state-of-the-art AI methodologies are also acceptable when they reflect lessons of unique value to the conference attendees. Shorter works, up to 6 pages, may be submitted as short papers representing work in progress or suggesting possible research directions.
All paper submissions will be done electronically, at the web site http://ssdut.dlut.edu.cn/iea-aie2012/. Papers will be peer reviewed and final copies of papers for inclusion in the conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag (format instructions available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) in their 'Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence' series. Referees will be asked to nominate papers for a Best Paper Award to be announced at the conference. All papers will be automatically considered for publication in an expanded form in selected international journals, including Applied Intelligence, Soft Computing, Evolutionary Intelligence, Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing.
