Subject: CFP OPTICS 2013 - 4th International Conference on Optical Communications Systems
CALL FOR PAPERS 4th International Conference on Optical Communications Systems - OPTICS 2013 Website: http://www.optics.icete.org July 29 - 31, 2013 Reykjavík, Iceland Important Deadlines: Regular Papers Paper Submission: February 22, 2013 Authors Notification: May 6, 2013 Final Paper Submission and Registration: May 20, 2013 Sponsored by: INSTICC - Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication Co-organized by: Reykjavik University INSTICC is Member of: WFMC- Workflow Management The purpose of OPTICS 2013, the International Conference on Optical Communication Systems, is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested on any of the optical communication components of an optical communication system, or the system itself. An optical communication system consists of a transmitter, which encodes a message into an optical signal, a channel, which carries the signal to its destination, and a receiver, which reproduces the message from the received optical signal. Optical fiber is currently the main means for high-rate transmission in communication networks. In the last years, there is a great deal of ongoing research efforts that span the entire protocol stack of optical networks, with representative areas being architecture of optical components, optoelectronics, wavelength routing, energy efficiency, Quality of Service, hybrid optical-wireless networks etc. Ideas on how to analyze and approach problems by combining optical technologies, electronic interfaces, and communication technologies, either in the scope of R&D projects, engineering or network management, are welcome. Papers describing new methods or technologies, advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged. Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the Proceedings of OPTICS, with an ISBN. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions. The best papers will be selected to appear either in an international journal or in a book to be published by Springer-Verlag. Special sessions, case-studies and tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific topics related to the main conference are also envisaged: researchers interested in organizing a special session, or companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. KEYNOTE SPEAKERS ICETE 2013 will have several invited keynote speakers, who are internationally recognized experts in their areas. Their names are not yet confirmed. PUBLICATIONS All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SciTePress is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/). A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a CCIS Series book The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and EI (Elsevier Index). AWARDS Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://www.optics.icete.org/BestPaperAward.aspx).
