Dear all, Happy New Year! I would like to inform you about the 30th International Conference on Computers and Industrial Engineering that is going to take place in the Island of Tinos at the Cyclads (Aegean sea), Greece, June 29 - July 2, 2002. The conference URL is: http://cda2.imse.lsu.edu/tinos2002/index.htm Although the deadline for submission of papers has already expired, the organizers might be a little flexible for those interested in submitting a paper now. For this purpose, those interested in submitting a paper should contact the Conference Co-Chair and Program Chair: Evangelos (Vangelis) Triantaphyllou <trianta@lsu.edu> Furthermore, as I am organizing the following special session in this conference: "Theoretical and Methodological Approaches to Internet Research and Webometrics" for this purpose I am soliciting 3 papers closely related to each other on this topic. Therefore, I would appreciate if partners from the EU project EICSTES (http://www.eicstes.org/) or COMMORG (http://www.commorg.net/) who are interested in contributing into the above special session might contact me as soon as possible by sending to me the abstract of their intended contribution in this session.
