            International Multiconferences will attract about 2000
            participants. The 2002 event will be composed of 14
            (planned) international conferences - attendees will have
            full access to all 14 conferences' sessions and tracks.




SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:


            Prospective authors are invited to submit three copies
            of their draft paper (about 5 pages - single spaced and
            font size of 10 to 12) to H. R. Arabnia by the due date
            (who may be forwarding the papers to respective conference
            chairs/committees).
            E-mail and Fax submissions are also acceptable.
            The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be
            limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been
            previously published or currently submitted for publication
            elsewhere.
            The first page of the draft paper should include:

            rooms. The hotel is minutes from the Las Vegas airport
            with 24-hour shuttle service to and from the airport.
            This hotel has many vacation and recreational attractions,
            including: waterfalls, casino, spa, pools & kiddie pools,
            sunning decks, Easy River water ride, wave pool with
            cascades, lighted tennis courts, health spa (with workout
            equipment, whirlpool, sauna, ...), arcade virtual reality
            game rooms, nightly shows, snack bars, a number of
            restaurants, shopping area, bars, ... Many of these
            attractions are open 24 hours a day and most are suitable for
            families and children. The negotiated hotel's room rate
            for conference attendees is very reasonable (79USD + tax)
            per night (no extra charge for double occupancy) for the
            duration of the conference.
            The hotel is within walking distance from most other
            Las Vegas attractions (major shopping areas, recreational
            destinations, fine dining and night clubs, free street
            shows, ...).
            For the benefit of our international colleagues: the
            state of Nevada neighbors with the states of California,
