Special Sessions
The Program Committee of the SOLI'2008 calls for proposals for special sessions within the technical scope of the conference. Interested attendees are encouraged to propose special sessions. Each special session consists of at least five papers that provide a focused discussion of a topic and form a cohesive and complementary group in the session topic. Special sessions are not invited sessions and papers will undergo the same review process as regular conference papers and accepted papers will be included in the Proceedings of IEEE/SOLI'2008, which will be indexed by ISTP and EI, and included in the IEEE Xplore. For more detailed information, please refer to the conference website http://soli08.bjtu.edu.cn/session.asp
