    Submission Guidelines for Special Session Papers

     

    The authors intended to contribute to IEEE WCCI 2014 Special Sessions are kindly recommended to follow the manuscript style information and templates of regular IEEE WCCI 2014 papers, as described here.

     

    Please note that each Special Session is specifically and exclusively related to one of the three conferences composing the IEEE WCCI 2014, i.e., IJCNN 2014 (NN), FUZZ-IEEE 2014 (FZ), and IEEE CEC 2014 (EC).

     

    When submitting their manuscripts, authors are recommended to follow these steps:

     

    1. Identify the conference associated to the Special Session they are interested in, by looking at the "Accepted Special Session" list under the column called ID, i.e., NN = IJCNN 2014, FZ = FUZZ-IEEE 2014, and EC = IEEE CEC 2014;

     

    2. Go to the related conference submission website;

     

    3. Select the Special Session name in the Main Research topic dropdown list;

     

    4. Fill out the input fields, upload the pdf file and finalize the submission by January 20, 2014.

     

    This guideline is intended to special session organizers for them to forward it to all potential authors.
