Although Assistive Technology could be discussed in many of the listed
sub-conferences it is hard to see where it would be expected by
participants.

Any indications of which theme it would be promoted through?

> PURPOSE / HISTORY: 
 
>    This set of joint conferences is the largest annual gathering of 
>    researchers in computer science, computer engineering and applied 
>    computing.  Many of the 25 joint conferences in WORLDCOMP are the 
>    premier conferences for presentation of advances in their respective 
>    fields.  We anticipate to have 2,600 or more attendees from over 80 
>    countries participating in the 2008 joint conferences. 
 
>    The motivation is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated research 
>    conferences into a coordinated research meeting held in a common 
>    place at a common time.  The main goal is to provide a forum for 
>    exchange of ideas in a number of research areas that interact.  The 
>    model used to form these annual conferences facilitates communication 
>    among researchers from all over the world in different fields of 
>    computer science, computer engineering and applied computing.  Both 
>    inward research (core areas of computer science and engineering) and 
>    outward research (multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, and 
>    applications) will be covered during the conferences. 
 
>    WORLCOMP'08 will be composed of research presentations, keynote 
>    lectures, invited presentations, tutorials, panel discussions, and 
>    poster presentations.  In recent past, keynote and/or tutorial speakers 
>    included: Prof. Michael J. Flynn (Stanford U.); Prof. John H. Holland 
>    (U. of Michigan, Ann Arbor); Prof. H. J. Siegel (Colorado State U.); 
>    Prof. Barry Vercoe (MIT); Prof. Ruzena Bajcsy (U. of California, 
>    Berkeley); Prof. David Cheriton (Stanford U.), Prof. A. K. Dunker 
>    (Indiana U. and Purdue U.); Prof. Jun Liu (Harvard U.); Dr. Jim Gettys 
>    (developer of X Window, ...); Dr. Chris Rowen (President and CEO, 
>    Tensilica, Inc.); and many other distinguished speakers. 
 
> SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: 
 
>    Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper 
>    (about 5 to 7 pages - single space, font size of 10 to 12) to 
>    H. R. Arabnia by Feb. 25, 2008. email submissions in MS document 
>    or PDF formats are preferable (Fax or postal submissions are also 
>    fine.)  All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable (later, 
>    the authors of accepted papers will be asked to follow a particular 
>    typesetting format to prepare their papers for publication.) 
 
>    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: title of the paper, 
>    name, affiliation, postal address, email address, and telephone 
>    number for each author.  The first page should also identify the 
>    name of the Contact Author and a maximum of 5 topical keywords that 
>    would best represent the content of the paper.  Finally, the name 
>    of the conference that the paper is being submitted to must be 
>    stated on the first page. 
 
>    Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, 
>    impact, and soundness.  Each paper will be refereed by two experts 
>    in the field who are independent of the conference program committee. 
>    The referees' evaluations will then be reviewed by two members of 
>    the program committee who will recommend a decision to the chair of 
>    the track that the paper has been submitted to.  The chair will make 
>    the final decision.  Lastly, the Camera-Ready papers will be reviewed 
>    by one member of the program committee. 
 
> PROPOSAL FOR ORGANIZING SESSIONS/WORKSHOPS: 
 
>    Each session will have at least 6 paper presentations from 
>    different authors (12 papers in the case of workshops).  The 
>    session chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their 
>    sessions; including, soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, ... 
>    The names of session chairs will appear as Associate Editors in 
>    the conference proceedings and on the cover of the books. 
 
>    Proposals to organize sessions should include the following 
>    information: name and address (+ email) of proposer, title of 
>    session, a 100-word description of the topic of the session, 
>    the name of the conference the session is submitted for 
>    consideration, and a short description on how the session will 
>    be advertised (in most cases, session proposers solicit papers 
>    from colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the 
>    session proposer).  email your proposal to H. R. Arabnia (address 
>    is given above).  We would like to receive the proposals by 
>    January 16, 2008.
