ICOCI 2006

call for papers.... yo



International conference on computing & informatic 2006 is coming to you soon. This is a Malaysian event organized by Malaysian, ya!

Why are they yelling ?
They need to look for sponsor, they need money to run it.

Organizer:
1. University Utara Malaysia
2. IEEE CS Malaysia
3. MDC, Malaysia
4. MOSTI (Ministry of Science, technology and innovation of Malaysia)
5. Ministry of energy, water and communication, Malaysia (MCMC)

So, organizer not willing to pay much for it, this should be it. MCMC, MDC and MOSTI are direct beneficiary of federal budget, who has more money than they are ?

perhaps it is bureaucratic issues, depending on who call for it, in this case I think is UUM whose research group is only benefiting from application-approved government research grant.

What is it ?
The ICOCI 2006 seeks papers describing research contributions to the field of computer communications and informatics. This conference aims to bring together academicians, researchers, scholars, corporate executives and representatives of interested organizations and foundations, to exchange opinions and experiences, views on emerging trends in the field of computer, communications and informatics.

CEO should attend to find out the following:
1. Is there any new technologies available ?
2. How far in-front or behind is your technical team in term of R & D?
3. Who is who in the field ?
4. Is what you are doing now already obsolete ? hehehe...very painful one ler (god bless u)

You can also do the following:
1. Hire CTO to your organization.
2. Teach those R & D geeks about making money in the ICT industry.
3. Educate researcher about the problems in the ICT industry. Don't just spend money and focus on inspiration.
4. Remind R & D group that they are spending federal money and should always make effort to contact evangelist like Brandon Teoh to help them with commercialization, earn the money and contribute back to the federal fund.

Don't Forget:
Also, don't forget to congratulate researchers for their great achievement and hard work. Inventions and innovations are subjective matter. There is no right and wrong, perhaps the biggest enemy is time.

Malaysia needed these people to help go through the fundamental phases. We can't jump straight to 2020. What needed is more coordinated activities, like accumulation of documentation and aggresive promotion for awarness.


Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Suitable topics will range from technical to applications and will include the following:

1. AI and intelligent systems
