(Please, read and forward this by email) HOW , WHY and WHERE ? ? ? New Best Students Papers from 15 Conferences:

After evaluation on the FULL Paper of the proposed papers from the
Session Chairmen
we are glad to announce the following best Student papers.
Unlike, other meetings (outside the WSEAS), the WSEAS is very careful
to whom it gives the "Best Student Paper Prize". From each Session,
the Session Chairman in his report, can propose some papers or some
papers (2 or 3 maximum) that have been presented by a Student and have
up to 2 authors (the student and his supervisor).
(Special Cases: As an exception, only papers with very high quality
with a Student and two other co-authors can be proposed for the
prize.)
The WSEAS sends the package of all the chairmen report in a 5 members
Technical Committee and after some time period, they send us the best
student papers. This is the reason why sometimes the evaluation of the
best student paper is slow.
For example, below, you can find the best student paper of the WSEAS
Conference of September 2007 (ECC)
as well as WSEAS Conferences of December 2007 and January 2008

Safety requirements for tunnels: Commission sends reasoned opinion to
United Kingdom

The European Commission sent on 31 January a reasoned opinion to the
United Kingdom for failure to fulfil the reporting obligations under
Directive 2004/54 on minimum safety requirements for tunnels. This
Directive sets out technical requirements to reach a minimum level of
safety of tunnels and shall apply to all tunnels in the trans-European
road network, with lengths of over 500 metres.

=======================================================================
===========
After the Impressive Results for the WSEAS Journals (see SJR factors
below), we have started now
the FREE and OPEN Publication of the PDF of the accepted papers on the
Web.

Free for all the Scientists to Publish & Free to Download everything!

So, our authors will be able to receive more citations.
This is necessary for the WSEAS impact, since now all the PDFs will be
open for all and we must
be competitive regarding the scientific quality.

The main criterion for publication is: Scientific Quality: Original
Work, Breakthrough Publications that
will bring CITATIONS to the Authors and to the WSEAS of course.


Example of OPEN PDFs
http://www.worldses.org/journals/economics/economics-march2007.htm

Simultaneously, the Journals will be published in HARD COPY. If
somebody needs the hard copy, he will pay
the cost.

* Unfortunately for the old issues we cannot open their PDFs because
we have some constraints
from the subscribers.

On the other hand, WSEAS puts the bar for acceptance extremely high.
We have given instructions to the Reviewers.
See: http://www.worldses.org/review/index.html

Our Statistics for the WSEAS Journals say that for every 10 papers, 1
is accepted and 9 is rejected, approximately. We are waiting the
review of extended papers from July 2007 - December 2007 to announce
the official statistics per journal. Up to now, the rejection rate is
approximately: 10% accepted, 90% rejected
(For Conferences: See for each conference the link:

Please, forward this message to your colleagues.
