Please contact the conference program co-chairs if you are interested
in organizing a workshop or a special session. A one-page proposal
with the following items is required:
Title of the workshop/special session
Name of the organizer(s)
A list of program committee members (reviewers)
E-mail address of the lead organizer
A brief description of the theme
Each special session should include at least 5 invited (or accepted)
papers. Each workshop should include at least 2 special sessions (10
papers). Paper review process of the workshop/special session will be
arranged by the workshop/special session organizer(s). It is the
responsibility of the organizer(s) to ensure the quality of papers in
the workshop/special sessions. The schedule of workshops/special
sessions will be the same as the main conference (See Important Dates
below). Each workshop/special session can set up the web site of the
workshop/special session. However papers will be printed in the same
volume as the main conference.
Special issue of Journals
The DMS conference is closely coordinated with the International
Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering, the Journal
of Visual Languages and Computing and the International Journal of
Distance Education Technologies. Usually the best ranked papers from
the conference, after rigorous reviews, extensive revisions and
further enhancements, will appear in one or more special issues of the
above journals. Papers suggested for the special issue(s) will be
reviewed by external reviewers following the standard procedure of
review stipulated by the respective journal.
Conference Hotel
The DMS2009 Conference will be held at the Hotel Sofitel, Redwood
City, San Francisco Bay, USA. The hotel has made available for these
limited dates (9/10/2009 - 9/13/2009) to DMS2009 attendees a discount

Manuscript must include a 200-word abstract and no more than 6 pages
of IEEE double column text (include figures and references).
Research papers must not be published or under consideration for
publication in a journal or in a conference with proceedings. Research
papers will be evaluated based on originality, significance, technical
soundness and clarify of exposition.
System papers should report on existing research prototypes by clearly
