General Information Original papers are invited for the 11th Online World Conference on Soft Computing in Industrial Applications (WSC11), to be held on the World Wide Web, WSC11 aims at bringing together outstanding research and developments in the field of soft computing (evolutionary computation, fuzzy logic, neural networks, Bayesian networks, and their fusion) and its applications, from across the world. Papers will be published on-line with the dual benefits of rapid dissemination and reduced cost. As with previous WSC conferences, Springer-Verlag has agreed to publish papers accepted for publication at WSC11 as an edited volume (with ISSN), after the conference. Furthermore, significantly revised and extended versions of a select set of papers from the conference will be invited for a "fast track" submission to the Elsevier Science (http://www.elsevier.com/) Applied Soft Computing Journal. During the conference, interactive discussions will be hosted between the authors and participants over the Internet. There will be a number of mirror sites around the world to ensure easy and rapid access to this major event from all locations. The registration to the conference is open to all (academics, students and industrial/commercial parties) and is completely free of charge. The WSC11 Program Committee would also like to invite proposals for special sessions to be held during the conference. All special sessions are to be organized around a specific topic in order to encourage in-depth discussions. Special sessions will be an integral part of the conference. WSC11 is now also inviting online tutorial proposals in topics related to soft computing in industrial applications. All accepted online tutorials will be held during the dates for WSC11.
