The IMECS 2008 is organized by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), and serves as good platforms for the engineering community members to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. The last conference in 2007 has attracted a total of over one thousand participants from over 50 countries. All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN: 978-988-98671-8-8). 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. Revised and expanded version of the selected papers may also be included as book chapters in the standalone edited books under the framework of cooperation between IAENG and Springer.
