Cambridge Scholars Press will be changing its name to Cambridge Scholars Publishing on the 1st of November 2006. The majority of titles appearing in 2007 will carry the new imprint.

tripleC journal is planned for the 1th of November.
Soon we will be able to tell you the expected publication date for the CSP book too.

Our editing of the materials for the CSP book and the tripleC journal is approaching the final phase.
Very soon (within a week or so) we will be able to tell you when the publication may be expected.

Please note that all papers (including those for tripleC) should be sent to gordana.dodig-crnkovic@mdh.se
with "ECAP 2005 paper" in the subject line.

Notification of acceptance sent to the authors. Here are the formatting rules for the book.
Formatting for the tripleC journal is given in http://triplec.uti.at/PRS/new_article.php

The process of publication of the proceedings of E-CAP 2005@MDH Sweden is converging and we have reached the point when the selection of papers has been made for two publications:

1. A book with working title 'Computing, Philosophy, and Cognitive Science' published by Cambridge Scholars Press http://www.cambridgescholarspress.com/

2. A special issue of tripleC, a refereed web open-access journal http://triplec.uti.at/
 

As the result of a gratifying circumstance that we have got unexpectedly many contributions (almost every participant submitted their papers), we are still in the process of reviewing, but we expect the notification of acceptance sent 3rd March 2006.

Full paper notification acceptance is posponed to 21th February 2006, as a result of two deadline extensions for full papers.

http://www.anvendtetikk.ntnu.no/ecap06//?id=14 Information about E-CAP 2006 conference in Trondheim, Norway!

The new deadline for paper submission is set to October 20th, 2005 - as many people needed more time, and we are trying to get published as many of excellent papers presented on the conference as possible. Please send your papers to gordana.dodig-crnkovic@mdh.se

Information about publishing

     The articles should be no longer than  4,000 words total, including the abstract and references.  It is intended that some  will go into a book 'Computing, Philosophy, and Cognitive Science' published by Cambridge Scholars Press http://www.cambridgescholarspress.com/ and some into Wolfgang Hofkirchner's Triple C  journal http://triplec.uti.at/.
     Articles will go through the usual peer-review process before the final decision regarding publication is made by editors. No special formatting conditions are specified at this stage, as book and journal formats differ.

     We will inform  everyone of decisions by December 31st, and ask people whose  paper has been accepted if they want to make any minor revisions at  that time.
