Active researchers are invited to organize Special Sessions as part of
the main conference. Each session should have five very good quality papers.
If
you are interested to organize a session and wish to chair or co-chair
sessions please contact:
The Programme Chair ([log in to unmask]).
CE2002 Workshops report very recent research in the form of a shorter
paper and provides a forum for active discussion. Every workshop should
have 4/5 papers. If you are interested to organize one workshop in your
area of specialization, please contact the Workshop Chair:
Dr. Fiona Lettice ([log in to unmask])
The CE2002 Exhibition gives Conference delegates the chance to meet
face-to-face representatives from leading CAD/PDM/IT companies. The
Exhibition will explore a number of key issues, such as IT for Product
Realisation,
E-engineering, E-manufacturing, and E-business. To demonstrate your product
or
consultancy, please book a stand with:
Dr. Victor Taratoukhine ([log in to unmask])
