   PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

           Papers reporting original and unpublished research results and
   experience  are  solicited.  Papers  will  be  selected based on their
   originality,  timeliness,  significance,  relevance,  and  clarity  of
   presentation.  Accepted  and presented papers will be published in the
   conference proceedings. Submissions should include an abstract, key words,
   the e-mail address of the corresponding author, and must not exceed 10 pages
   of  single column, including tables and figures. Submissions imply the
   willingness of at least one author to register, attend the conference, and
   present   the  paper.  Submissions  to  PDCAT'05  are  conducted  only
   electronically.  Authors should send the manuscripts in the PDF or DOC
   formats to pdcat05@jaist.ac.jp including the keyword of PDCAT2005 and the
   appropriate topic codes inside the email subjects. For example, if you have
   a paper in the topic of Internetconnection networks, the email subject may
   be 'PDCAT2005 Submission (1-01)'.   If you cannot find a suitable topic for
   your paper, please use the subject 'PDCAT2005 Submission (others)'.

          It is planned that the conference proceedings of PDCAT'05 will be
   published in English by IEEE Computer Society (cited by EI) and extended
   versions of some selected papers are to be published in special issues of
   two  journals: IEICE Trans. on Information and Systems (cited by SCI),
   International Journal High Performance Computing and Networking.
