******** EUSAI 2004 ************************************
**** 2nd European Symposium on Ambient Intelligence ****
First Call for Papers
November 8-10 2004
Eindhoven University of Technology
Eindhoven, The Netherlands
http://www.eusai.net
* 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 2nd 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.
* 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.
