***** Second Call for Papers *****
Socially Inspired Computing - Engineering with Social Metaphors
** Deadline 15th November 2004 **
A 2-day workshop at the AISB convention on "Social Intelligence and
Interaction in Animals, Robots And Agents", 12-15 April 2005, at University
of Hertfordshire, de Havilland Campus, Hatfield, England. Co-organised by:
David Hales and Bruce Edmonds.
Web page: http://cfpm.org/sic
Ideas from biology have been successfully applied to the design,
construction and adjustment of computer systems. This workshop aims to
focus on work which contributes to doing the same with ideas and metaphors
originating in social phenomena.
This symposium will be back-to-back with the AISB symposium on "Emerging
Artificial Societies", so you can attend both at the convention. Details
about the whole convention and the 14 other co-located symposia see:
http://aisb2005.feis.herts.ac.uk
Submitted papers should be 6-10 pages long and will be thoroughly refereed.
Authors intending to submit should first consult the web-page for submission
instructions, and more exact guidance as to the suitability of papers etc.
Conditional upon the quality of the papers, we intend to seek publication as
a special issue of a suitable journal (as has happened with previous
workshops we have organised).
*** Important Dates:
Deadline for submissions (full papers): 15th Nov 2004
Notification of acceptance: 7th Dec 2004
Deadline for submission of final versions: 21st Dec 2004
