Call for Papers (extended): The 2012 International Conference of Manufacturing Engineering and Engineering Management (ICMEEM 2012)

CFP (extended): The 2012 International Conference of Manufacturing Engineering and Engineering Management (ICMEEM 2012)
From: International Association of Engineers (IAENG)
Draft Paper Submission Deadline (extended): 23 March, 2012
Camera-Ready papers & Registration Deadline (extended): 5 April, 2012
ICMEEM 2012: London, U.K., 4-6 July, 2012
http://www.iaeng.org/WCE2012/ICMEEM2012.html

The conference ICMEEM'12 is held under the World Congress on Engineering 2012. The WCE 2012 is organized by International Association of Engineers (IAENG),
a non-profit international association for the engineers and the computer
scientists. The congress has the focus on the frontier topics in the theoretical
and applied engineering and computer science subjects. The WCE conferences serve
as good platforms for our members and the entire engineering community to meet
with each other and to exchange ideas. The recent IAENG conference has attracted
more than eight hundred participants from over 30 countries. Our congress
committees have been formed with over three hundred committee members who are
mainly research center heads, faculty deans, department heads, professors, and
research scientists from different universities like Cambridge, Imperial College,
Harvard, MIT and Oxford etc.

The conference proceedings will be published by IAENG (ISBN: 978-988-19251-3-8)
in hardcopy. The full-text congress proceeding will be indexed in major database
indexes so that it can be assessed easily. Revised and expanded version of the
selected papers may be included as book chapters in the standalone edited books
under the framework of cooperation between publishers like Springer and IAENG. The abstracts will be indexed and available at major academic databases.
The accepted papers will also be considered for publication in the special issues
of the journal Engineering Letters, in IAENG journals and in edited books. For
reference, the recent IAENG post conference edited books include titles like
for example: Current Themes in Engineering Science by America Institute of Physics,
Trends in Intelligent Systems and Computer Engineering,
Advances in Communication Systems and Electrical Engineering, and
Advances in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research by Springer.
