CALL FOR PAPERS & EXHIBITION
ACIDCA'2000
International Conference on
Artificial and Computational Intelligence for Decision, Control and
Automation in Engineering and Industrial Applications
<http://www.chez.com/acidca2000>
Monastir (Tunisia), 22-24 March 2000
Organized by :
Association for Innovation and Technology (Tunisia)
University of Sfax (ENIS - FSEGS)
Sponsored by :
IEEE SMC
Co-Sponsored by :
TSS
Supported by :
Tunisian State Secretariat of Scientific
Research and Technology(SERST)
*******************************************************************
SCOPE
-----
Technological innovation is related to more than one scientific field.
Cooperation between researchers in different scientific fields and
industrials is nowadays inevitable. The International Conference on
Artificial and Computational Intelligence for Decision, Control and
Automation in Engineering and Industrial Applications (ACIDCA'2000) will
provide a forum for theoretician and practitioner researchers, industrials,
and academic experts to exchange ideas, share experiences, promote
technological products, and address the important issue of the applications
of advanced topics in computational intelligence, artificial intelligence,
decision, control, and automation in engineering and industrial systems.
ACIDCA'2000 will include exhibits and demonstrations of real-world
applications and will be a job fair by matching up applicants with
employment opportunities.
TECHNICAL PROGRAM
-----------------
ACIDCA'2000 will be organized into seven thematic technical sessions
focusing on theory, implementation and applications. ACIDCA'2000 will also
include invited plenary speeches on selected advanced aspects given by
experts in the specific state-of-the art subject areas. Invited special
talks on major topics by eminent speakers will be included in the technical
sessions. There will be tutorial sessions on March 21. Detailed information
on the sessions along with tutorial abstracts will be available at
ACIDCA'2000 web site as soon as they are finalized.
EXHIBITION
----------
The exhibition will be held in parallel with ACIDCA'2000. All delegates and
guests will have an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the technical
characteristics, performances, and details concerning the function and
applications of the products and display. Exhibitors who wish to participate
in the exhibition are requested to send application forms (available on the
web site of the conference) to the Secretariat of ACIDCA'2000 no later than
October 15, 1999.
