Dear
Researchers & Practitioners!
You
are invited to participate in the 2006 International Conference on Data
Mining! DMIN'06 is an international conference held simultaneously with
28 other joint conferences as part of WORLDCOMP'06, The 2006 World
Congress in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Applied
Computing. WORLDCOMP'06 is one of the largest annual gatherings of
researchers and practitioners in computer science, computer engineering
and applied computing. Each of the joint conferences in WORLDCOMP is a
premier conference for presentation of advances in their respective
fields (for the complete list of joint conferences please see
www.dmin-2006.com
). The last set of conferences (DMIN'05 and affiliated events) had
research contributions from 76 countries and had attracted over 1,500
participants. It is anticipated to have over 2,000 participants for the
2006 event.
You
are invited to submit a draft paper via our website. All accepted papers
will be published in the respective conference proceedings. The names of
technical session/workshop organizers/chairs will appear on the cover of
the proceedings/books as Associate Editors.

theoretical research criteria, but will take general interest and
presentation stronger into consideration.
DRAFT PAPER
We
welcome all contributions through theoretical research papers and
industrial reports and case studies on applications in form of regular
research papers of 7 pages IEEE style. In addition, we welcome student
research proposals as short papers of 4 pages plus plenary presentations
to receive guidance from established experts, online demonstrations of
prototype software systems of 1 page and presentation in informal poster
sessions. Accepted submissions include:
-
regular research papers (max. 7 pages IEEE style, formal presentation)
-
regular application reports (max. 7 pages IEEE style, formal
presentation)
-
short research papers (max. 4 pages IEEE style, poster presentation)
-
short application reports (max. 4 pages IEEE style, poster presentation)
-
student research proposals (max. 4 pages IEEE style, formal
presentation)
-
software demonstrations (max. 1 page IEEE style, online presentation)
-
posters (max. 1 page IEEE style, poster presentation)
Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper (between 1
to 7 pages, standard 2 column IEEE style) via our online submission
systems by Feb. 20, 2006. Online submissions of PDF-files via the
conference management system are encouraged. In selected exceptions an
E-mail submission in MS Word or Adobe PDF format or Fax or postal
submissions are also acceptable.
CAMERA READY PAPERS
The
length of the camera ready papers accepted will be limited to 7 IEEE
style pages. Standard IEEE templates & typing instructions, copyright
