I am happy to invite you to be a speaker at the VIP Scientific

This year IPS-USA-2006 CAMBRIDGE, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, USA takes place 
from Thursday July 6 (arrival day) till Sunday July 9 (departure day). 
Detailed program and all relevant information are given at the web site of the conference.

In addition to other programs, a special VIP Scientific Forum is also
organized (other fori include the High Tech Forum, Talented Students Forum, etc.).

Please submit your title/abstract (which means that you have committed
to participate if your paper is accepted), as soon as possible, because
the space is limited.

Advantages are given to papers with several disciplines covered.

The major goal of this forum is to establish a podium for a fruitful
exchange of the newest scientific ideas, and that is why your
participation is extremely important to all of us. Only elite
researchers and professionals are invited.

If you like to accept this invitation, please send email (with title, 
abstract, and affiliation) to boston@rti7020.etf.bg.ac.yu

Conditions of this invitation are as follows:

1. Duration of your slot is 20 minutes

7. There is a number of reasons for submitting a paper to conferences organized by us.
The major one is that your paper is submitted to 12 reviewers, and you will get
at least about five of them (or even more, if your paper is in the field for witch
it is easier to find good reviewers).

8. There is a number of reasons for coming to conferences organized by us.
The major three are related to benefits of M+I+T++ interactions,
family type setting for new business relationships,
and mechanisms to enhance creativity.

   a. These days it is difficult to get a large project from agencies like DARPA or NSF,
      unless your proposal has the elements of multi-, inter-, and trans- disciplinary research,
      which is the major issue at conferences organized by us. 
   b. If you go to specialized conferences, even before going to the conference,
      you already know what response will you get; if you go to conferences organized by us,
      you get the response which is unthinkable of.
   c. If you are surrounded with people from different disciplines, you become more creative.

   d. If you go to conferences organized by us, you broaden your horizons,
      which is important for creativity;
      going periodically to conferences organized by us is like having
      a "Renaissance Weekend" from time to time.
   e. At specialized conferences you are surrounded by your best friends who are many times
      your worst enemies, so you have to be careful about what you talk;
      at conferences organized by us you are surrounded by friends only,
      and you can talk openly and freely. 
   f. At conferences organized by us you can create new business opportunity in a family like setting,
      because a number of mechanisms exist to enhance the family like atmosphere.
 
   g. Creativity is enhanced by careful selection of regions and hotels
      (where the conference takes place), and by presenters and attendees
      (who are selected to be invited).

9. Social program at conferences organized by us is unique!!!
You are welcome to check with past participants!

10. Also, location of this conference is a paradise for those who like to walk.
You have fantastic walking paths around the hotel, for miles in at least
two different directions.


Sincerely yours,

Prof. Dr. V. Milutinovic, Fellow of the IEEE,
General Chair of IPS-USA-2006 CAMBRIDGE, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, USA.
