************************** CALL FOR PAPERS ***************************

    Second International Conference on Cognitive Science (ICCS'99)

       << Sponsored by The Japanese Cognitive Science Society >>

   Dates: July 27-30, 1999
   Location: International Convention Center at Waseda University
             Tokyo, Japan
   Abstract submissions due: January 31, 1999.

**********************************************************************

The Second International Conference on Cognitive Science Program$B!!(B
Committee invites abstracts for papers presenting research in broadly
defined studies of cognition.  Pieces of work are welcome from, but
not limited to, cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence,
linguistics, philosophy, cognitive anthropology, social cognition,
neuroscience, brain studies and comparative cognition.  Specific
encouragement is given to, but not limited to, interdisciplinary
topics such as studies on emotion, computer human interaction,
computer-supported collaborative work and learning, AI and games,
language acquisition, communication, connectionist models of cognitive
development, natural language processing and neural studies on memory
and higher-order cognition.  We welcome international viewpoints, in
hope of bringing yet newer challenges to this growing
interdisciplinary research field.

The conference will be held at the International Convention Center at
Waseda University, Tokyo.  For reservation, contact the local
arrangement person.  Registration details will be announced soon.

SESSIONS AND LANGUAGES

There will be oral and poster sessions at this conference.  Oral
presentations will be given in English, with English manuscripts for
the proceedings.  Poster presentations will be given either in English
or Japanese, with English or Japanese manuscripts.  We will also
consider chances for poster presentations to be given in yet other
languages: If you are considering presenting your work in some other
language than either English or Japanese, please contact us at
ICCS99 at sccs.chukyo-u.ac.jp.

Some plenary talks will be arranged to cover cutting-edge research
topics from various cognitive science research groups representing
Asia, Australia, Europe, the U.S., and other places where there has
been strong tradition of cognitive science research.

We are also in the process of organizing workshops and symposia to
highlight the international-interdisciplinary approach to this second
conference on studies of cognition.  Comments and suggestions are
welcome at ICCS99 at sccs.chukyo-u.ac.jp and iccs99org at etl.go.jp.

GUIDELINES FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS

Abstracts of 2000 words (or 6,000 characters in case of Japanese) or
less for original work are invited on topics broadly related to
studies on cognition.

For oral presentations, please submit English abstract.  If you
already have a full paper, we encourage you to submit it with the
abstract (URLs are fine).  This full version can either be in English
or Japanese, though the abstract should be in English.  This full
version is encouraged for securing high quality review. This does not
guarantee, even after acceptance, that the originally submitted full
version would automatically appear in the proceedings because of the
space availability.

For posters, please submit abstracts either in English or in Japanese.
The poster presentation, as well as the poster itself, can be given in
any language if you prefer, though the abstract and the proceedings
manuscript should be written either in English or in Japanese.  Please
indicate in which language you prefer to present the work.  We will
encourage attaching English captions to the posters when you choose to
give it in non-English languages.

Please send us four (4) anonymous copies of the abstract with a cover
sheet including author(s)'s name(s) and affiliations(s), contact
person's name and address, and the e-mail address (please add the fax
number if you have one).  Also please identify the preferred
presentation style (we may need to ask you to present the work in
other format than your proposal).  A template is provided below.
