WSEAS Transactions candidates in ISI (5 Journals, Submission Deadline: May 31, 2011). Our Journals are published in hard copy and Web. Open access for all. No fees for the authors...

Dear Colleagues,

WSEAS Transactions seek original manuscripts for five different special issues (see below).
Upload now full papers in our Special Issues of WSEAS Transactions. 
Authors can upload their papers to WSEAS Transactions regardless of whether they have attended a WSEAS conference or not. Authors can upload their papers to WSEAS Transactions regardless of whether these papers are extended version of some WSEAS conference or not.
Upload original and high-quality papers until May 31 in 5 different WSEAS Journals (Transactions).

The WSEAS Journals never asked and will never ask "fees" or "donations" from authors, though they offer their papers in open PDF (no username and password) for everybody on the web and are also printed in hard copy. They are indexed by SCOPUS, ACM, AMS, IET (INSPEC), CSA, Zentrablatt, and many others seewww.wseas.us/indexes  , and are also candidates for ISI with serious hope to include them in ISI soon.

Papers must be Original and of High Quality and must be able to receive future citations from other ISI Journals. 
Five WSEAS Transactions (Signal Processing, Circuits and Systems, Fluid Mechanics, Heat and Mass Transfer, Biology and Biomedicine)seek original manuscripts for the following special issues.

Timing is common for all these 5 special issues (see below). 

These papers must be original and must not have common part with papers that you have possible uploaded in WSEAS Transactions or NAUN or University Press Journals or in any other journal.

2] WSEAS Transactions on Circuits and Systems: Special Issue in:  Fuzzy Systems and Applications

WSEAS Transactions on Circuits and Systems seeks original manuscripts for a Special Issue  in Fuzzy Systems and Applications Fuzzy systems is an alternative to traditional notions of set membership and logic that has its origins in ancient Greek philosophy, and applications at the leading edge of Artificial Intelligence. Yet, despite its long-standing origins, it is a relatively new field, and as such leaves much room for development. This paper will present the foundations of fuzzy systems, along with some of the more noteworthy objections to its use, with examples drawn from current research in the field of Artificial Intelligence. Ultimately, it will be demonstrated that the use of fuzzy systems makes a viable addition to the field of Artificial Intelligence, and perhaps more generally to formal mathematics as a whole. Fuzzy systems have demonstrated the ability to formalize in a computationally efficient manner the approximate reasoning capability typical of humans. One of the important research challenges today is to further develop the fuzzy systems theory towards the design of intelligent systems with a higher level of flexibility and autonomy, so that the systems can evolve their structure and knowledge depending on the environment and ultimately - evolve their intelligence. To address the problems of modelling, control, prediction, classification and data processing in a dynamically changing and evolving environment, a system must be able to fully adapt its structure and adjust its parameters, rather than use a pre-trained and a fixed structure. That is, the system must be able to evolve, to self-develop, to self-organize, to self-evaluate and to self-improve.

ΑΝΑΚΟΙΝΩΣΗ

Επειδή κάποιοι ανόητοι Έλληνες "συνάδελφοι" διασπείρουν από καιρό σε καιρό, 

εδώ στην Ελλάδα, ανόητες φήμες ότι δήθεν πρέπει να πληρώσεις χρήματα για να δημοσιεύσεις άρθρα στα περιοδικά μας

ή ότι δήθεν πρέπει να έρθεις πρώτα στο συνέδριο μας για να περάσεις άρθρο στα περιοδικά μας. 
Δηλώνουμε ότι πρόκειται για ΣΥΚΟΦΑΝΤΙΕΣ και ΛΑΣΠΗ του χειρίστου είδους που στοιχειθετούν ποινικό αδίκημα
και που αν επαναληφθούν θα καταφύγουμε στα ποινικά δικαστήρια.

Λυπούμαστε που θα τους στενοχωρήσουμε αλλά από τότε που όλα μας τα συνέδρια μπήκαν στο ISI, 
προχωράει και η είσοδος των περιοδικών. Ήδη τα πρώτα μας περιοδικά πέρασαν τα πρώτα τεστ με επιτυχία,

Εις ό,τι δε αφορά τις κακοήθειες που κάποιοι ζηλότυποι διαδίδουν τους ενημερώνουμε με το κείμενο που υπάρχει στην Ιστοσελίδα μας

Όποιος θέλει ας μας "τεστάρει"

Λέει το κείμενο www.wseas.org 

About WSEAS Journals:  The WSEAS Journals are entirely independent from the WSEAS Conferences, since they are currently candidates in ISI Web of Knowledge (all the WSEAS Conferences and Books have been already in ISI Web of Knowledge).  Authors can send (upload) their papers to WSEAS Transactions regardless of whether they have attended a WSEAS conference or not. Also the WSEAS Transactions are the only open access journals in the world where the Authors do not pay any kind of registration fees or publication fees or "donation" (i.e. the full PDF files of the papers are permanantly open for everybody, without any restrictions, while the authors are not charged with any kind of fees). The Editors-in-Chief, being assisted by the members of the Editorial Boards, are the absolute decision makers for the acceptance or not of the submitted papers. WSEAS simply prints out the papers in hard copies &  on the web.

Professors against Plagiarism in IRAN http://professorsagainstplagiarism.blogspot.com/

http://professorsagainstplagiarism.blogspot.com/
Senior officials in the Iranian government are suspected of plagiarizing
published scientific content for political gain.
Nature, the international weekly journal of science, reported last week that
its research unearthed even more plagiarism allegations against prominent
figures in Iran. The first person to be implicated more than a year ago was
Masumeh Ebtekar, the head of the Environmental Protection Organization under
President Khatami.
A few months ago, Nature tabbed Transport Minister Hamid Behbahani, who
supervised President Ahmadi-nejad's doctoral thesis, for plagiarism in a
paper he co-authored. Nature says the paper appeared based on three earlier
articles by three different authors. The journal Transport retracted the
paper in October, but the Iranian government has not investigated the
allegations.
Behbahani told the public he did not plagiarize and that only parts of the
article were identical to earlier work. He called the plagiarism allegations
a "media attack, far from fairness and integrity" and "an illegitimate
accusation."
The Majlis did, however, informally investigate Science Minister Kamran
Daneshjou and the four papers he co-authored. Daneshjou oversaw this year's
elections in his previous post of deputy interior minister. The Majlis
Science and Education Committee held an informal inquiry into the case and
dismissed it after Daneshjou's colleague and co-author, Majid Shahravi, took
responsibility for the content in the papers. Three of the four papers have
been retracted from publications. The fourth paper was published in an
Iranian journal.

Nature speculates that the frequent cases of plagiarism in Iran are partly
the result of poor fluency in English. Nature said the culture in Iran and
some other developing countries expects officials to have strong academic
credentials. That encourages resort to plagiarism to uphold this cultural
expectation and gain promotions.
Nature notes many of Iran's best scientists left Iran after the 1979 Islamic
revolution because universities were asked to eliminate Western influences
and staff. Iranian research improved and became more credible in the late
1990s with the help of President Mohammad Khatami who made academic
appointments based on merit, Nature said. It said research in Iran has gone
downhill since Ahmadi-nejad took power in 2005 because political influence
directed promotions within universities.
