* Workshop on Web & Grid-based Virtual Laboratories, Experimenting and
Simulation
* Workshop on Parallel Evolutionary Computation
* Workshop on Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization: Design and
Applications

*******************************************************

Prospective authors are invited to submit a:
- full paper of 8 pages (PDF), for oral presentation. Authors must use the
double columns IEEE format.
- proposal to organize a workshop.

The submission of a paper implies that the paper is original and has not

accepted. Besides papers in regular sessions, papers in special sessions are
also invited to provide forums for focused discussions on new topics and
innovative applications of established approaches. A special session
consists of at least four related papers. Proposals for special sessions
including the session organizers, author names, paper titles, abstracts, and
brief statements on the purposes of the sessions must be submitted to by
February 15th, 2007.

All papers should be submitted electronically via Online Paper Submission
System (electronic link available). The format of the initial submissions
can be PDF. The file of the final accepted papers should be in either Word
or Latex.

All submitted papers will be refereed by experts in the respective fields
according to the criteria of originality, significance, quality, and
clarity. The authors of accepted papers will have an opportunity to revise
their papers and take into consideration the referees' comments and
suggestions, before submitting the final papers.

All accepted papers with paid registration will be included in the
Proceedings of ISDA'07, to be published by IEEE Computer Science. After the
conference, authors of best papers will be invited to submit an extended
version of their papers for possible inclusion in special issues of a
selection of international journals.
