Last Call for Papers (extended): IAENG International Conference on Imaging Engineering (ICIE 2009) CFP: IAENG International Conference on Imaging Engineering ICIE 2009 From: International Association of Engineers The 2009 IAENG International Conference on Imaging Engineering 18-20 March, 2009, Hong Kong http://www.iaeng.org/IMECS2009/ICIE2009.html The conference ICIE'09 is held under the International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2009. The IMECS 2009 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 2008 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: 978-988-17012-2-0). 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. For reference, the following IAENG post conference edited books, Trends in Intelligent Systems and Computer Engineering, Advances in Communication Systems and Electrical Engineering, and Advances in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research, have been published by Springer.
