In 2009, the conference was held in Sibiu between 26 and 28 November on the premises of the Land Forces Academy and the topic (the knowledge-based organization) was the Knowledge-Based Organization.
Conference Proceedings are published as books by “Nicolae Balcescu” Land Forces Academy Publishing House and include full papers. Our Publishing House is recognized by CNCSIS (National University Research Council) and the ISSN of Conference Proceedings is 1843-6722. Part of the papers published in the conference proceedings are selected to be published in the scientific publications of the Land Forces Academy, Revista Academiei Fortelor Terestre (the Land Forces Academy Review) and Buletin Stiintific (the Scientific Bulletin), publications which are included in the international databases EBSCO and Proquest.
Out of the total number of 417 papers that we received in 2009, only 370 have been accepted for publication, the percentage of rejected papers being higher than 10% (papers have been rejected either because of the poor quality in scientific content, or because the issues addressed did not fit into the topic of the conference).
In order to be published, papers must deal with issues that fall under the topic of the conference and must meet the international editorial and publishing standards (papers written in English, abstracts, keywords, complete and up-to-date references and bibliography).
