orld Scientific has just launched its first e-proceedings website. Designed to enhance our service to conference organizers, it is more than just an electronic version of traditional proceedings - it features an interactive online forum for participants and visitors to discuss topics presented during a conference.

This website, in concert with our established facilities offering full preconference support through online submission and management of contributions, provides a total e-solution from the inception of your conference to its conclusion, and beyond. . .

Before the Conference

• Contributors register with a username and password before submitting articles.
• As many articles as desired can be uploaded to the predefined article categories of the conference; contributors can view, modify and delete their own contributions only.
• Automatic e-mail notification is given to the administrators, who can view, modify and delete any of the submitted articles.
• Administrators can query submitted articles based on the title, author's name or presentation sequence.

After the Conference

• Speakers and participants can access papers from the conference anytime, anywhere.
• The site acts as a forum where people can communicate about shared interests in real time.
• Postconference discussions can continue for up to six months after the conference date.
• Organizers can arrange to archive papers, allowing future participants to access papers presented at past conferences.
• Contact details (e-mails of individuals and specific groups) of the speakers are provided online.
• Organizers and speakers can obtain participants' feedback on a specific session or on the entire conference.
• For each session, a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section provides participants with answers to recurring questions.
