 INVITED SESSIONS
 
 Based on past conferences experience we suggest the following steps in
 order to organize an invited session:
 
 1) Identify a special topic in the scope of SCI 2001, and the invited
 session title.
 2) Fill the invited session organization form, provided in the
 conference
 web page. If you don't have access to the web, contact the General
 Chair,
 via e-mail, ncallaos@callaos.com ncallaos@aol.com 
callaos@telcel.net.ve
 
 3) If the identified topic is suitable, the General Chair will accept
 the
 proposal, and you will receive an acceptation by e-mail, in few days.
 This
 acceptation is not a final approval of the proposed session, but a
 pre-approval.
 Final approval will depend on identifying at least five papers for the
 proposed session and informing, at least,
 about their titles. With this acceptation a) the proposed session will
 be
 included in the conference web page as well as its organizer and chair
 name: and b) its organizer will be able to announce his/her invited
 session
 in the context of SCI 2001, by any media that he/she thinks
 appropriated,
 such as: Web page, hard copy call for papers, call for papers attached
 to
 e-mails, etc.
 4) Contact researchers and/or practitioners in your field to see if
they
 
 can contribute a paper to your proposed session and attend at SCI 2001.
 5) Collect the extended abstracts or the paper drafts from each
 prospective
 participant.
 6) Write a summary (1-2 page) with the main objectives, which must be
 related to the invited/selected papers.
 7) As soon as you have 5 papers, you will complete the form in regard
to
 
 the invited session papers, provided in the conference web site.
 8) Step 7 will take your invited session to the status of an approved
 one,
 if the papers fulfil all the requirements  (papers quality, etc). All
 the
 approved invited sessions will be included in the SCI 2001 conference
 program.
