Biggest Fake Conference in Computer Science
by georgepeter＠hushmail.com 12 Apr '13

12 Apr '13

We are researchers from different parts of the world and conducted a study on the world’s biggest bogus computer science conference WORLDCOMP ( http://sites.google.com/site/worlddump1 ) organized by Prof. Hamid Arabnia from University of Georgia, USA. We submitted a fake paper to WORLDCOMP 2011 and again (the same paper with a modified title) to WORLDCOMP 2012. This paper had numerous fundamental mistakes. Sample statements from that paper include: (1). Binary logic is fuzzy logic and vice versa (2). Pascal developed fuzzy logic (3). Object oriented languages do not exhibit any polymorphism or inheritance (4). TCP and IP are synonyms and are part of OSI model (5). Distributed systems deal with only one computer (6). Laptop is an example for a super computer (7). Operating system is an example for computer hardware Also, our paper did not express any conceptual meaning. However, it was accepted both the times without any modifications (and without any reviews) and we were invited to submit the final paper and a payment of $500+ fee to present the paper. We decided to use the fee for better purposes than making Prof. Hamid Arabnia (Chairman of WORLDCOMP) rich. After that, we received few reminders from WORLDCOMP to pay the fee but we never responded. We MUST say that you should look at the above website if you have any thoughts to submit a paper to WORLDCOMP. DBLP and other indexing agencies have stopped indexing WORLDCOMP’s proceedings since 2011 due to its fakeness. See http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/conf/icai/index.html for of one of the conferences of WORLDCOMP and notice that there is no listing after 2010. See http://sites.google.com/site/dumpconf for comments from well-known researchers about WORLDCOMP. If WORLDCOMP is not fake then why did DBLP suddenly stopped listing the proceedings after? The status of your WORLDCOMP papers can be changed from “scientific” to “other” (i.e., junk or non-technical) at any time. See the comments http://www.mail-archive.com/tccc@lists.cs.columbia.edu/msg05168.html of a respected researcher on this. Better not to have a paper than having it in WORLDCOMP and spoil the resume and peace of mind forever! Our study revealed that WORLDCOMP is a money making business, using University of Georgia mask, for Prof. Hamid Arabnia. He is throwing out a small chunk of that money (around 20 dollars per paper published in WORLDCOMP’s proceedings) to his puppet (Mr. Ashu Solo or A.M.G. Solo) who publicizes WORLDCOMP and also defends it at various forums, using fake/anonymous names. The puppet uses fake names and defames other conferences to divert traffic to WORLDCOMP. He also makes anonymous phone calls and threatens the critiques of WORLDCOMP (see Item 7 in Section 5 of http://sites.google.com/site/dumpconf ).That is, the puppet does all his best to get a maximum number of papers published at WORLDCOMP to get more money into his (and Prof. Hamid Arabnia’s) pockets. Monte Carlo Resort (the venue of WORLDCOMP until 2012) has refused to provide the venue for WORLDCOMP’13 because of the fears of their image being tarnished due to WORLDCOMP’s fraudulent activities. WORLDCOMP’13 will be held at a different resort. WORLDCOMP will not be held after 2013. The paper submission deadline for WORLDCOMP’13 was March 18 and it was extended to April 6 and now it is extended to April 20 (it may be extended again) but still there are no committee members, no reviewers, and there is no conference Chairman. The only contact details available on WORLDCOMP’s website is just an email address! Prof. Hamid Arabnia expends the deadline to get more papers (means, more registration fee into his pocket!). Let us make a direct request to Prof. Hamid arabnia: publish all reviews for all the papers (after blocking identifiable details) since 2000 conference. Reveal the names and affiliations of all the reviewers (for each year) and how many papers each reviewer had reviewed on average. We also request him to look at the Open Challenge at https://sites.google.com/site/moneycomp1 Sorry for posting to multiple lists. Spreading the word is the only way to stop this bogus conference. Please forward this message to other mailing lists and people. We are shocked with Prof. Hamid Arabnia and his puppet’s activities http://worldcomp-fake-bogus.blogspot.com Search Google using the keyword worldcomp fake for additional links.

Product CalendarTag on zope2.13.19
by Giampiero Benvenuti 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hello! I'm running a zope2.13.19 instance on my mac. I intstalled the product Calendar version 1.0.19 I adjusted the file __init__.py Change the line: from ImageFile import ImageFile with: from App.ImageFile import ImageFile so far so good. Still, one problem is this type of error: SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xf1' in file /Applications/zope21319/Products/Calendar/CalendarTag.py on line 139, but no encoding declared; Is pointing to lines containing non ASCII character such as this one: 'pl': ('StyczeÒ','Luty','Marzec','KwiecieÒ','Maj','Czerwiec','Lipiec','SierpieÒ','WrzesieÒ','Paºdziernik','Listopad','GrudzieÒ') What is the best way to take care of this issue? Of course, the fastest is to get rid of some languages... not good. It could be nice to release a complete working version of the product. Please give me some hints. Thank You, Giampiero

ANN: eGenix mxODBC Zope/Plone Database Adapter 2.1.1
by eGenix Team: M.-A. Lemburg 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

________________________________________________________________________ ANNOUNCEMENT mxODBC Zope/Plone Database Adapter Version 2.1.1 for Zope and the Plone CMS Available for Plone 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2, Zope 2.12 and 2.13, on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and other platforms This announcement is also available on our web-site for online reading: http://www.egenix.com/company/news/eGenix-mxODBC-Zope-DA-2.1.1-GA.html ________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION The eGenix mxODBC Zope DA allows you to easily connect your Zope or Plone CMS installation to just about any database backend on the market today, giving you the reliability of the commercially supported eGenix product mxODBC and the flexibility of the ODBC standard as middle-tier architecture. The mxODBC Zope Database Adapter is highly portable, just like Zope itself and provides a high performance interface to all your ODBC data sources, using a single well-supported interface on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and other platforms. This makes it ideal for deployment in ZEO Clusters and Zope hosting environments where stability and high performance are a top priority, establishing an excellent basis and scalable solution for your Plone CMS. Product page: http://www.egenix.com/products/zope/mxODBCZopeDA/ ________________________________________________________________________ NEWS We are pleased to announce the new version 2.1.1 of our mxODBC Zope/Plone Database Adapter product. Feature Enhancements -------------------- * Added a new connection property "ODBC cursor type" which allows easily adjusting the ODBC cursor type to be used for mxODBC Zope DA connection objects. This new property allows enhancing the performance of the adapter significantly, when using it with MS SQL Server or IBM DB2 database backends. Please see below for details. Driver Compatibility -------------------- * MS SQL Server performance can now be much enhanced, and increased to levels beyond that of previous mxODBC Zope DA releases, by adjusting the connection ODBC cursor type to "Forward only cursors". The performance increase compared to mxODBC Zope DA 2.1.0 is enormous: from 2-3x faster executes/fetches for average queries, up to 300x faster for simple cases. In mxODBC Zope DA 2.2, we will switch to using "Forward only cursors" per default for all database backends. * IBM DB2 can benefit from the same performance enhancements using "Forward only cursors". The effect is a lot smaller, but still noticeable: up to 2x faster executes/fetches with forward-only cursors, compared to mxODBC Zope DA 2.1.0. * Added documentation to explain the different cursor types, compatibility with different database backends and effects on performance. Fixes ----- * Fixed the installation instructions to be more generic and easily adaptable to Plone and Zope installations on both Windows and Unix platforms. For the full set of changes please check the change log: http://www.egenix.com/products/zope/mxODBCZopeDA/changelog.html ________________________________________________________________________ FEATURES Version 2.1.0 of our mxODBC Zope/Plone Database Adapter product was released on 2012-09-18. Please see the full announcement for highlights of the 2.1 release: http://www.egenix.com/company/news/eGenix-mxODBC-Zope-DA-2.1.0-GA.html For the full set of features mxODBC has to offer, please see: http://www.egenix.com/products/zope/mxODBCZopeDA/#Features ________________________________________________________________________ UPGRADING Users are encouraged to upgrade to this latest mxODBC Zope/Plone DA release to benefit from the new features and updated ODBC driver support.
