This workshop brings together researchers, developers, and users of automatic identification technologies including: 
  • Biometrics: Fingerprint, Eye, Face, Voice (Speaker Recognition),  Hand, Signature, etc. 
  • Bar Code Systems and Other Symbologies 
  • Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) 
  • Other Visual Identification Technologies 
These auto-ID fields are at an exciting time in their evolution. Novel research developments are being made at a high rate, and these are being implemented into commercial systems. This workshop encourages attendance of both academic and industry participants to present, examine, and discuss new developments. The two-day workshop will include paper presentations, panel sessions, technology demonstrations, and meetings. 

Technical papers are solicited in the topic areas listed above. These papers may describe research ideas, technical systems, or applications. Prospective authors should submit their full papers or extended abstracts not exceeding 10 pages as per instructions given below.

For paper submission, please send your paper by 19-Nov-2001 to,
