Introduction
The IAJC-IJME Conference
Committee is very pleased to invite researchers, engineers, and practitioners
to present their latest accomplishments, innovations, and potential future
directions in engineering, engineering technology, industrial technology, and entrepreneurship.
The IAJC-IJME Conference is intended as a meeting point to discuss advances
and collaborations in engineering, engineering technology, industrial
technology, and entrepreneurship. Various fields of engineering , engineering technology,
industrial technology, and entrepreneurship are facing significant changes and will encompass
knowledge, information, and data from related fields of study. Works from
all fields of engineering, engineering technology, and industrial technology
are considered for acceptance.
We welcome
full papers for peer review and works-in-progress (WIPs). We also invite
submissions and ideas for panels, special sessions, workshops, and expositions.

Procedures for
Submitting Papers
- Abstract Submission
is closed
- Authors should
submit a 300 or fewer words abstract (Using Microsoft Word in
English) of their paper to
submission@ijme.us to the attention of conference review
committee no later than April 7, 2008.
All authors should indicate if their
abstract (s)
are in the area of Engineering, Engineering Technology, Industrial
Technology, Science or Entrepreneurship.
- Abstract Acceptance
Notification
- All submitted abstracts
will be reviewed by the
IAJC-IJME Conference Committee. Participants
will be notified by email on April 14, 2008.
- Full Paper Submission
- The selected authors must
submit their full manuscripts to
submission@ijme.us by
June 16, 2008. Full papers should be
formatted according to the specifications on the
Author's
Kit Web page. All presentations must be in English.
- Full Papers Acceptance
- All submitted full papers
will be blind peer-reviewed by three or more reviewers selected by the
IAJC-IJME Conference Committee. Participants will be notified
by email on August 15, 2008.
- Final Paper Submission
Deadline
- All final papers must be
submitted by September 05, 2008.
- Final Paper Acceptance/Rejection Notification
- Authors will be notified by September
15, 2008 if their
final/revised paper is accepted or rejected for publication in the
conference proceedings.
A Full Paper
- Submissions must adhere to
the Procedures for Submitting Papers and the
Author's
Kit guidelines.
- Initially, you must submit electronically
an abstract of 300 words or fewer, via the IAJC-IJME Conference Web site. Your abstract must contain the
author's name, abstract title, author's affiliation, phone number, fax number,
and e-mail address.
- One author from each paper is
expected to register for and participate in the IAJC-IJME Conference.
A Works-in-Progress
(WIP)
- A WIP describes preliminary
developments of an ongoing project that involves state-of-the-art implementation,
creative pilot programs, or nontraditional concepts.
- WIP papers are expected to include
importance to the community, current project status, expected outcomes,
projected status by the conference date, preliminary results, and an evaluation
plan. WIP abstracts will be judged
in the same way as full papers. Authors must submit electronically
an abstract of 300 words or fewer via the IAJC-IJME Conference Web page.
The title of a WIP abstract
must indicate that it is a WIP (for example, "WIP: A Study of Engineering
Principals and Practices"). The abstract must contain the author's name,
abstract title, author's affiliation, phone number, fax number, and e-mail
address.
- One author from each paper is
expected to register for and participate in the conference.
Workshops
The workshop
is open to all individuals interested in all fields of engineering, engineering
technology, and industrial technology. To encourage interaction and a broad
exchange of ideas, the workshop will be limited to 15 to 20 participants,
and ample time will be allotted for general discussion. Attendance is limited
to people actively participating in the talks or in the discussions.
Panels & Special
Sessions
- Panels and special sessions
are scheduled as part of the technical program in parallel with traditional
paper presentations.
- Panel sessions normally consist
of short presentations by several speakers followed by a discussion period
with the audience. Special sessions allow a variety
of nontraditional formats and emphasize the involvement of all audience
members in active learning. Special sessions are nontraditional
in the sense that they are not like pre-conference workshops. They give
session leaders an opportunity to take risks and try something that may
be unproven in content and/or format. Thus they provide experiences that
are "at the frontiers."
- Sessions are 90 or 120 minutes
in length.
Expositions
- Submit to the IAJC-IJME Conference
Committee the plans for a potential exposition.
- The plans must include the relevancy
to modern engineering and related topics. A possible schedule and list
of potential demonstrations, types of exhibits, and speakers is required. A description of security and
security measures must be defined and submitted.
- Hours of operations and number
of days must be submitted and concurrent with normal
IAJC-IJME conference dates.
Potential Topics
of Interest
The following list represents
potential areas of interest for the IAJC-IJME Conference. If your topic does not appear in this list,
please submit an abstract or WIP for review and potential acceptance for
the conference to: Mark Rajai

Assurances
Engineering is the application of science to the needs of humanity.
This is accomplished through knowledge, mathematics, and practical
experience applied to the design of useful objects or processes.
Professional practitioners of engineering are called engineers.

- Computer - Networking - Electrical - Mechanical - Surveying
- Telecommunications
Engineering Technology is a broad term for the field that forms
the backbone of manufacturing and other industries. It's often
divided into smaller, specialized areas and skill sets. Electrical
and mechanical engineering technologies create power systems and
their components — things like electrical devices, motors,
engines, semiconductors, circuits, and computers. Civil engineering
technology focuses on building bridges, tunnels, and transportation
systems — from subway and rail to air and space travel.
Computer and telecommunications engineering technologies are at
work in computer hardware and software, as well as in data and
network systems.

Process
Industrial Technology is primarily involved with the management,
operation, and maintenance of complex technological systems while
Engineering and Engineering Technology are primarily involved
with the design and installation of these systems.

Entrepreneurship |
ALL FACETS OF ENGINEERING, ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY, INDUSTRIAL
TECHNOLOGY, AND ENTREPRENEURIAL LEADERSHIP IN BUSINESS AND TECHNOLOGY
ENDEAVORS.
Entrepreneurship seeks to reform or revolutionize the pattern of production by exploiting an invention or, more generally, an untried technological possibility for producing a new commodity or producing an old one in a new way, by opening up anew source of supply of materials or a new outlet for products. Entrepreneurship essentially consists in doing things that are not generally done in the ordinary course of business routine. Entrepreneurship is the dynamic process of creating incremental wealth. This wealth created by individuals who assume the major risks in terms of equity, time, and/or career commitment of providing value for some product or service. The product or service itself may or may not be new or unique but value must somehow be infused by the entrepreneur by securing and allocating the necessary skills and resources.
