`Feats and Frontiers'
=====================
Edinburgh, 7 April 2001
A one-day international AI symposium in memory of Sidney Michaelson.
The idea is to celebrate some of the major achievements of Artificial
Intelligence over the last 30 years or so. But the Symposium will not
dwell on the past. We will select speakers who can illuminate the
first quarter of the new millennium by sketching out what they see as
the likely developments that will see AI contributing to emerging
technologies. This promises to be a very practical meeting at which
scholars at the forefront of AI research will mix with industry
delegates who have real problems to solve.
Speakers include
Prof. Marvin Minsky (MIT)
and Prof. Mike Brady (Oxford).
Organised by the BCS Edinburgh branch.
See http://www.dcs.napier.ac.uk/~mac/AI.html for details.
Submissions are invited for
- short papers on the achievement and/or promise of AI
- short reports/presentations for an industrial forum
- bids for a debate
- exhibits/demonstrations.
Deadlines:
12 January 2001 for papers (extended abstract) and debate bids
2 March 2001 for the industrial forum and exhibits/demonstrations
