CALL FOR PAPERS
International Conference on Information Technology
ITCC 2005
(Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society)
April 11-13, 2005, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
Submission Deadline: October 29, 2004

Theme
The rapid growth in information science and technology in general and the
complexity and volume of multimedia data in particular have introduced
new challenges for the research community. Of particular interest is the
need for a concise representation, efficient manipulation, and fast
transmission of multimedia data. Applications such as space science,
telemedicine, military, and robotics deal with large volumes of data
which need to be stored and processed in real time. The ITCC is an
international forum which brings together researchers and practitioners
working on different aspects of Information Technology. It is a gathering
where the latest theoretical and technological advances on Information
Technology are presented and discussed. All papers submitted to this
conference will be refereed by at least two independent referees. The
ITCC proceedings will be published by IEEE computer society available at
the time of the conference. The ITCC 2005 is sponsored by the IEEE
Computer Society, and is organized in cooperation with The Premier Hall
for Advancing Science and Engineering (PHASE) and The National
Supercomputing Center for Energy and the Environment (NSCEE). The ITCC
2005 is being held in conjunction with a related conference-
International Conference on Information Systems: New Generations (ISNG
2005) whose emphasis is primarily on information systems hardware,
prototypes and architectures.
Tracks
Proposals are solicited from those who are interested in organizing a
track dealing with a specific area of related to the conference theme.
Track organizers will be members of the Program Committee and will be
responsible for advertising, collecting and reviewing technical articles.
The names of the track organizers will appear in the ITCC proceedings as
associate editors of the Proceedings. Each track is anticipated to
include approximately 25 to 30 papers. Organizers with fewer submissions
may consider organizing sessions instead, with each session consisting of
4 to 5 papers.

Student Best Paper
Student best paper will be awarded at the conference. To be eligible,
the student must be the sole author of the paper, or the first author and
the primary contributor. (The winner of the award will present the paper
in a plenary session at the conference). A cover letter to the Program
Chair/Track Chair must identify the paper as a candidate for this
competition at the time of submission.
Submission Instruction
Papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical or
experimental nature, or be unique experience reports. Authors should send
a 6-page summary of their original and unpublished work including 5
keywords in the IEEE format to General Chair- selvaraj@egr.unlv.edu .
Electronic submission in the PDF format or Word document is strongly
encouraged. Per ITCC policy, except for invited papers, all papers will
be refereed by at least two independent referees. Accepted papers will
be published in the conference proceedings with an ISBN. Selected papers
presented in the conference will be considered for publication in a
special issue of an international journal. Submission of paper implies
that at least one author will register, attend and present the paper in
the conference.
