** How will the Internet Conference be organized ?
The intention is (1) to distribute a CD that contains all materials for the conference. It will include abstracts and papers presented at the 5th International Eco-city Conference (2) to enable people who were unable to be in Shenzhen to present their papers at the Internet Conference.

They will be supported further by the web where additional materials from authors and participants can be made available.
