Hi.. I have been visiting this ...Anonymous 2 ......<br />Hi.. I have been visiting this blog since I had come to know that ICFCA conference is a big fraud and nothing more than that. I had also submitted a paper in icfca but later on I withdrew my paper when I came to know that they are not associated with acm and many such claims which later was revealed as false. ICFCA have also refunded me the registration fees. Today I visited ICFCA website and found that instead of techinal committee a list of reviewers has been added and all the reviewers are indians. Quite strange that all of a suden the list of reviewers has been revealed though no review comments were received by the authors. The rate at which icfca is changing something or the other everyday, it will not be surprising if the persons whose names have been mentioned in the reviewer list of ICFCA are actually the reviewers of ICFCA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-67929945209401999512009-12-15T14:54:20.633+05:302009-12-15T14:54:20.633+05:30Reply to comment 42:

His phone number is +919901815031. <br /><br />Now he claims to publish the articles "with initial indexing with DBLP and citeseer". Only time will tell if he is true to his tall claims. Till now he has excelled in his phony tactics. If he doesn't stay true to his latest claim we may have to go to the press and the police maybe and ruin this guy aka Thrope's career. <br /><br />Big names - ACM, Google, Intel, Duke University, etc..... - vanished one by one from the wb site. If citeseer and DBLP meet the same fate later on we'll have to hunt and nail this guy down so that he doesn't fall into these scanference habits any more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-64098121179246837702009-12-14T12:03:15.608+05:302009-12-14T12:03:15.608+05:30hey jit can u please come to me in g-talk?

For such low number of attendees, it is unfeasible for us to conduct an oral presentation of the research papers. Hence, we are calling off the presentations/ conference based on the response of the participants. We apologize to the authors who were interested in oral presentation.<br /><br />All the manuscripts are being published in the maiden issue of the "International Journal on Futuristic Computer Applications" with initial indexing with DBLP and citeseer. The Digital Library will be launched for public usage on Feb 25th, 2010. The journal hardcopy and the certificates will be posted to you on Feb 25th, 2010.<br /><br />Please note that J. Thrope, Steve Peterson and S. Subramaniam are not associated with ICFCA any longer.<br /><br />We profusely apologize for the unforeseen developments. For any clarifications on "International Journal on Futuristic Computer Applications" and indexing, please write to chair@icfca.org.<br /><br />Since, this is a maiden launch of the "International Journal on Futuristic Computer Applications" DL, we need your continued support towards this initiative.<br /><br /><br />Thanking you,<br />IJFCA Support Desk,<br />ICFCA PublicationsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-30079872639066839272009-12-11T11:22:58.010+05:302009-12-11T11:22:58.010+05:30Reply to comment 41:

When questioned, he seemed to have an answer to everything from the missing ACM and company logos to why the Hall in IISc wasn't booked. He insists that the ICFCA is being run by volunteers from all over the world and he happens to be just one of them. As for Prof. Thrope at Duke, he feigns ignorance saying that he assumed the volunteer existed. <br /><br />What do you wish to do with this guy? If you could let us know, we can proceed further. He has promised to contact all the authors within the next two days informing about the refund in case any authors wish to withdraw their papers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-12406550529790306162009-12-07T14:21:32.131+05:302009-12-07T14:21:32.131+05:30I realised I have been duped just today!!!

Apologies but I want my research to be published. It matters less if its under ACM. If the work is under "open access" like IJFCA its better since it will be available freely on the web. ICFCA should meet the launch date of the Journal. Its also mentioned that the journal is the initial issue and so, there is no point of argument.Moiz Hussainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05617898555610036085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-46057900874685103772009-11-27T13:15:59.246+05:302009-11-27T13:15:59.246+05:30I sent a mail asking for the details.

For my question regarding contact details, the mails reads that telephonic contact details are reserved only for personnel usage asking me to direct any queries to the official mail address.<br /><br />I think its valid response from ICFCA.

It does not list the addresses of its main organizers. It advertised about a conferences in Bangalore which it is now not going to hold. Anyway it fooled many authors into submitting to it. The authors can tell us if there was any reviewing done.<br /><br />What will come out on Feb 25, 2010 is that hundreds of authors, some from well known places, got fooled. <br /><br />That will not and should not legitimize the ICFCA journal. <br /><br />This should be publicized enough that any self-respecting author withdraws their paper from that journal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-12143619567807156882009-11-26T12:50:41.746+05:302009-11-26T12:50:41.746+05:30Big Day Feb 25, 2010..
