The Second International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT 2004) is an annual conference organizing by the Department of Telecommuni-cations Science, Faculty of Science and Technology, Assumption University.
Assumption University has an outstanding reputation for organizing similar events during the past several years. After the great success of the first event (8-10 April 2003), ICT 2004 planned to become an annual forum with a strong international flavor. The authors are invited to submit research papers, maximum ten pages and/or a proposal to organize a technical session/workshop. All accepted papers would be published in the conference proceedings.
Submission of Papers
Prospective authors are invited to submit an electronic version of their paper to the ICT Secretariat by the due date. The length of the camera-ready papers (if accepted) will be limited to ten pages. Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere.
