* CONFERENCE THEME *
Ambient Intelligence represents a vision of the future where we shall be
surrounded by electronic environments, sensitive and responsive to
people. Ambient intelligence technologies are expected to combine
concepts of ubiquitous computing and intelligent systems putting humans
in the centre of technological developments. Ambient Intelligence
represents a long-term objective for European research bringing together
researchers across multiple disciplines: computer science, electronics
and mechanical engineering, design, architecture, social sciences,
software engineering, to name a few.
Following a successful first event last year, the Second European
Symposium on Ambient Intelligence, will be held in Eindhoven in the
Netherlands, on November 8-10, 2004. It aims to provide a venue for an
emerging multi-disciplinary community of researchers that work on
Ambient Intelligence.
* KEYNOTES INCLUDE *
Ted Selker (MIT Media Lab, USA)
Tom Rodden (University of Nottingham, UK)
* TOPICS *
The symposium addresses the following research areas in Ambient
Intelligence systems:
- Ubiquitous computing: wired, wireless and ad-hoc networking, discovery
mechanisms, software architectures, system integration and prototyping,
portable devices.
- Context awareness: sensors, tracking and positioning, smart devices,
wearable, models of context of use, software architectures for multi
platform interfaces.
- Intelligence: learning algorithms, user profiling, personalisation and
adaptivity, recommenders, autonomous intelligence, agent based user
interfaces.
- Natural user-system interaction: ambient interfaces, multimodal
interaction, innovative interaction styles and concepts.
