Call for Workshop Proposals
The EUROLAN 2001 Program Committee invites proposals for Workshops
to be held in conjunction with the EUROLAN 2001 Summer Institute. We intend
to accept two workshop proposals, each workshop being held during three
consecutive evenings at the beginning of each week of the summer institute.
For details, please consult:
http://www.infoiasi.ro/~eurolan2001/program.html
Areas of Interest
We welcome proposals on any topic of interest within the institute's main
theme.
Submission
Proposals should be submitted by electronic mail, in plain ASCII text, .rtf
or .doc files, as soon as possible, but no later than 8 December 2000. The
subject line should be: EUROLAN WORKSHOP PROPOSAL. Please submit your
proposals and any inquiries to Dan Cristea, dcristea at infoiasi.ro.
Reviewing
Proposals will be reviewed by the EUROLAN Program Committee:
Nancy IDE - Vassar College, Poughkeepsie
Dan CRISTEA - "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University, Iasi
Dan TUFIS - Romanian Academy, Bucharest
Laurent ROMARY - LORIA laboratories, Nancy
Daniel MARCU - University of Southern California
Proposals
Proposals for workshops should contain:
Scientific part:
- a title and a brief (about 500 word) content description of the workshop
topic.
Organizational part:
- any special requirements for technical needs (computer infrastructure,
etc.);
- the program committee.
Organization details
EUROLAN will support the workshops with the necessary equipment and workshop
rooms.
The workshops are expected to be organizationally and financially
self-supported, including reviewing of received contributions, selection of
papers, printing of the workshop proceedings.
The workshop participants are supposed to be registered as regular EUROLAN
students.
It is recommended that the program committees of the workshops include some
of the invited lecturers of EUROLAN 2001, so that the workshops could be
better interconnected with the institute's activities.
Important Dates
Submission Deadline for Workshop Proposal: December 8, 2000.
Notification of acceptance of Workshop Proposal: December 15, 2000.

Call FOR PAPER
Fourth International ICSC Symposia on
SOFT COMPUTING AND INTELLIGENT
SYSTEMS FOR INDUSTRY
June 26-29, 2001
Paisley, Scotland, U.K.
General Information
PURPOSE OF SOCO/ISFI 2001
The twin conferences, Soft Computing (SOCO 2001) and Intelligent Systems
for Industry (ISFI 2001) are intended to cover the field of "soft computing"
from pure blue-sky research (SOCO) to prototypes and applications of soft
computing. Soft computing has become a term embracing artificial neural
networks, evolutionary algorithms, belief networks, fuzzy sets and logics,
etc. (A fuller list of topics appears below).
AIM OF SOCO 2001 AND ISFI 2001
SOCO 2001 aims to be of broad interest to engineers, computer scientists and
all who use such technologies. It will be a forum for the
Dissemination of new research in the field of soft computing
Introduction of application-oriented researchers to leading edge new
research.
ISFI 2001 will encourage practitioners and researchers from industry,
commerce, education and governments to submit existing applications of soft
computing either as technical papers or as demonstrations. ISFI 2001 aims
to be a forum for the
Dissemination of results on new applications in this field
Introduction of pure research oriented personnel to applications of soft
computing.
Symposium Topics (SOCO'2001)
Soco'2001 will include contributions on long term research (theory
development, enhanced approaches, formal methods comparisons, applications,
etc.) in the area of soft-computing. Contributions are sought in areas based
on the list below, which is indicative only.
Neural Networks
Fuzzy Logic
Rough Sets
Genetic Algorithms and Evolutionary Computing
Chaos Theory
Al and Expert Systems
Probabilistic Reasoning, belief nets
Machine learning
Learning Algorithms and Intelligent Control
Pattern Recognition and Image Understanding
Distributed Intelligence
Self-Organizing Systems
Fuzzy Databases and Information Retrieval
Educational Aspects of Soft Computing

Symposium Topics (ISFI'2001)
ISFI'2001 will include contributions in the research area of Soft Computing
Application and, more general, related to medium-to-short term and
application driven developments Advanced Information Technology and
Industrial Intelligent Technology. Particular emphasis will be laid on
industrial realization, experimental application, application methodology
development and/or formalization, quantitative and qualitative problem
modelling.
Contributions are sought mainly in the areas based on the list below:
Industrial Area: Commerce, Energy, Transportation, Services, Medicine
etc.
High-Tech Area: Innovative Control and Diagnostics, Computer Vision,
Robotics and Remote Sensing, Speech Recognition and Machine Translation,
Mechatronics, etc.

The scientific program will include invited plenary talks, contributed
sessions, invited sessions, and tutorials.
Call for Invited Sessions
The organization of invited sessions is encouraged. Prospective organizers
are requested to send a session proposal (consisting of 4-5 invited papers,
the recommended session-chair and co-chair, as well as a short statement
describing the title and the purpose of the session) to the respective
symposium chair or the congress organizer. Invited sessions should
preferably start with a tutorial paper. The registration fee of the session
organizer will be waived, if at least 4 authors of invited papers register
to the conference.
Poster Presentations
Poster presentations are encouraged for people who wish to receive peer
feedback and practical examples of applied research are particularly
welcome. Poster sessions will allow the presentation and discussion of
respective papers, which will also be included in the conference
proceedings.
Call for Workshops, Tutorials and Other Contributions
Several workshops/tutorials are planned for SOCO/ISFI'2001. Each
workshop/tutorial will focus on a particular topic, and consist of several
presentations and open discussions. The proposal for a workshop/tutorial
should include the title, topics covered, proposed speakers, targeted
audiences, and estimated length (hours) of the workshop/tutorial. The
proposal should be submitted either to the congress chair, the corresponding
symposium chair or the congress organizer by January 15, 2001.
Submission of Papers
Prospective authors are requested to send a short biography and draft paper
of maximum 7 pages for review by the International Program Committee. All
submissions must be written in English, starting with a succinct statement
of the problem, the results achieved, their significance and a comparison
with previous work, as well as a list of references.
