About IEEE SoSE 2008:

IEEE SMC Society announces the third International Conference on System of Systems Engineering (SoSE) with its vast ramifications in numerous engineering fields such as control, computing, communication, information technology and the applications to manufacturing, defense, national and homeland security, aerospace, aeronautics, energy, environment, etc.

The SoSE 2008 will be held at Portola Plaza & SPA Hotel, Monterey, CA from June 2nd - June 4th, 2008. The conference theme is SoSE in Service of Energy and Security reflecting the need of growing recognition that significant changes in large-scale systems integration. For general and technical program inquiries about the conference,

Please contact the conference General Chair, Dr. Mo Jamshidi (moj@wacong.org) (mo.jamshidi@utsa.edu) , and the Program Co-Chairs, Dr. Bret Michael (bmichael@nps.edu) and Dr. Ferat Sahin (feseee@rit.edu) respectively.

SoSE 2008 provides a world-class forum of all aspects of systems engineering, human- machine systems and emerging cybernetics. Papers related to this theme are especially solicited, including theories, methodologies, and applications of System of Systems in science, technology, industrial, education, and etcetera
