CALL FOR PAPERS and Call For Workshop/Session Proposals
==============================================
FECS'11
The 2011 International Conference on Frontiers
in Education: Computer Science and Computer Engineering
Date and Location: July 18-21, 2011, Las Vegas, USA
www.world-academy-of-science.org/
==============================================
You are invited to submit a full paper for consideration. All accepted
papers will be published in the FECS conference proceedings (in printed book form; later, the proceedings will also be accessible online) - the proceedings will be indexed in Inspec / IET / The Institute for Engineering & Technology, DBLP / Computer Science Bibliography, and others. Those interested in proposing workshops/sessions, should refer to the relevant sections that appear below.
The main keynote lecture will be delivered by Prof. David Lorge Parnas (Fellow of IEEE, ACM, RSC, CAE, GI; MRIA); there will also be 8 other distinguished speakers, 12 planned tutorials and panel discussions as well as about 70 research paper presentations.
