The Athens Institute for Education and Research (ATINER) organizes its 2nd Annual International Conference on Fine Arts in Athens, Greece, 6-9 June 2011. The conference website is: www.atiner.gr/arts.htm

 The aim of the conference is to bring together scholars, researchers and students from all areas of Fine Arts (such as Animation, Architecture, Art History, Art Education, Book Arts, Ceramics, Community Arts, Fashion Design, Fiber, Furniture/Woodworking, Glass, Graphic Design, Illustration, Industrial Design, Interior Design, Jewellery/Metal Arts, Media Arts, Painting/Drawing, Photography, Printmaking, Sculpture, Fiber Arts, Visual Studies, Writing and Literature, etc) and Performing Arts (such as music, drama, dance, etc). Panel organizers are encouraged to submit their proposals by inviting other scholars that do research in the area.

 The registration fee of 250 (euro), covers access to all sessions, two lunches, coffee breaks, and conference material. Special arrangements will be made with a local luxury hotel for a limited number of rooms at a special conference rate. In addition, a number of special events will be organized: a Greek night of entertainment, a special one-day cruise in the Greek islands and a half-day tour around the wider area of Athens (Attica).

 Please submit an abstract of no more than 300 words (using email only to: atiner@atiner.gr) by 15th of November 2010 addresses to: Dr. Stephen Andrew Arbury, Academic Member of ATINER and Professor, Radford University, USA. Abstracts should include: Title of Paper, Full Name (s), Affiliation, Current Position, an email address and at least 3 keywords that best describe the subject of your submission. Decisions are reached within 4 weeks. If you want to participate without presenting a paper, i.e. chair a session, review papers to be included in the conference proceedings or books, contribute to the editing of a book, or any other contribution, please send an email to Dr. Gregory T. Papanikos, (gtp@atiner.gr) Director, ATINER.

 The Athens Institute for Education and Research (ATINER) was established in 1995 as an independent academic organization with the mission to become a forum, where academics and researchers - from all over the world - could meet in Athens and exchange ideas on their research and discuss the future developments of their discipline. Since 1995, ATINER has organized more than 100 international conferences and has published over 80 books. Academically, the Institute consists of four research divisions and nineteen research units. Each research unit organizes at least an annual conference and undertakes various small and large research projects.

We invite you to submit a paper/abstract to The 2nd International
Conference on Education, Training, and Informatics: ICETI 2011 (March
27th - 30th, 2011 - Orlando, Florida, USA):
http://www.2011iiisconferences.org/ICETI

If you have any colleagues who might be interested in making a
submission to the conference, please feel free to forward this e-mail to
them.

Below are the deadlines for ICETI 2011:

Papers/Abstracts Submission and Invited Session Proposals: September
8th, 2010 Authors Notifications: November 15th, 2010 Camera-ready, full
papers: December 6th, 2010

Technical keynote speakers will be selected from early submissions
because this selection requires an additional evaluation according to
the quality of the paper, assessed by its reviewers, the authors' CV and
the paper's topic.

All Submitted papers/abstracts will go through three reviewing
processes: (1) double-blind (at least three reviewers), (2) non-blind,
and (3) participative peer reviews. These three kinds of review will
support the selection process of those papers/abstracts that will be
accepted for their presentation at the conference, as well as those to
be selected for their publication in JSCI Journal.

Pre-Conference and Post-conference Virtual sessions (via electronic
forums) will be held for each session included in the conference
program, so that sessions papers can be read before the conference, and
authors presenting at the same session can interact during one week
before and after the conference. Authors can also participate in
peer-to-peer reviewing in virtual sessions.

Submissions for Face-to-Face or for Virtual Participation are both
accepted. Both kinds of submissions will have the same reviewing process
and the accepted papers will be included in the same proceedings.

Authors of accepted papers who registered in the conference can have
access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the
reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers/abstracts, so
they can accordingly improve the final version of their papers.
Non-registered authors will not have access to the reviews of their
respective submissions

Registration fees of an effective invited session organizer will be
waived according to the policy described in the web page  (click on
'Invited Session', then on 'Benefits for the Organizers of Invited
Sessions'), where you can get information about the ten benefits for an
invited session organizer. For Invited Sessions Proposals, please visit
the conference web site, or directly to
http://www.2011iiisconferences.org/iceti/organizer.asp

Authors of the best 10%-20% of the papers presented at the conference
(included those virtually presented) will be invited to adapt their
papers for their publication in the Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics
and Informatics.
