Meeting Description: 

The Symposium Spatial Reasoning and Communication is part of the AISB Artificial
and Ambient Intelligence Convention 2007. It aims at bringing together recent
research developments in spatial cognition in relation to ambient intelligence,
addressing in particular the relationship between humans and intelligent
technology interacting and communicating in spatial environments.  It welcomes
contributions to all aspects of spatial cognition concerning communication and
computation.
