iiWAS2009 and MoMM2009 invite PhD and masters students
to present, discuss, and defend their substantial and 
mature work, work-in-progress, or preliminary results in 
front of an international and renowned audience of researchers. 
MDC aims at offering valuable feedback to the students 
according to their stage of research and will, therefore, 
foster extensive discussions following the students' 
presentations.

The colloquium will be organized in parallel to iiWAS2009
and MoMM2009 conferences, which are going to take place in
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, December 14-16, 2009. The scope of
MDC submissions should be related to the topics of interest
shaped by iiWAS2009 and MoMM2009.

Paper Submissions and Review Process

Paper submissions are solicited up to 5 pages length in PDF 
format. Each contribution should contain a problem statement, 
an overview  of related work in the area, a presentation of 
the contribution to the research domain addressed by iiWAS2009 
and MoMM2009, a description of the methodological approach, 
and results achieved so far. All papers will be peer reviewed 
by three members of the international TPC and judged according 
to relevance, clarity and correctness, and novelty and 
originality.
