2008 IEEE SMC International Conference on DISTRIBUTED HUMAN-MACHINE
SYSTEMS 2008(DHMS 2008)

MARCH 9-12, 2008
Athens, Greece

Sponsored by the Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE:

DHMS 2008 will provide a unique opportunity for participants from
universities, industry, and government agencies to address
challenges, share solutions, and discuss future research directions
in distributed human-machine systems. A broad range of topics will
combine theory and applications for human- robot/human-machine
interaction and interfaces, distributed intelligent systems and
networks, agent and holonic systems, swarm intelligence, with the
goal of strengthening cooperation of academics, scientists,
researchers and engineers with industry.

TOPICS:

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Agents and agent-based systems
Biologically inspired systems
Collective robotics
Computational Intelligence
Decentralized systems
Distributed systems
Embedded intelligence
Evolutionary robotics
Genetic and evolutionary computation
Human-machine interfaces
Human-robot interaction
Industrial applications of holonic and agent-based systems
Intelligent systems
Knowledge systems for coalition operations
Swarms, Swarm intelligence
Unmanned systems
Virtual enterprises
Hybrid systems
Virtual reality

    20th European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information
                                  ESSLLI 2008
              Monday, 4 August - Friday, 15 August 2008
              Hamburg, Germany

                   CALL FOR COURSE and WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
                   --------------------------------------

The European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI)
is organized every year by the Association for Logic, Language and
Information (FoLLI, http://www.folli.org) in different sites around
Europe.

The main focus of ESSLLI is on the interface between linguistics,
logic and computation. ESSLLI offers foundational, introductory and
advanced courses, as well as workshops, covering a wide variety of
topics within the three areas of interest: Language and Computation,
Language and Logic, and Logic and Computation.

Previous summer schools have been highly successful, attracting up to
500 students from Europe and elsewhere. The school has developed into
an important meeting place and forum for discussion for students and
researchers interested in the interdisciplinary study of Logic,
Language and Information.

The ESSLLI 2008 Program Committee invites proposals for
foundational, introductory, and advanced courses, and for workshops
for the 20th annual Summer School on a wide range of timely topics
that have demonstrated their relevance in the following fields:

     - Logic and Language
     - Logic and Computation
     - Language and Computation

PROPOSAL SUBMISSION: Proposals should be submitted through a web form
available at http://www.folli.org/submission.php

All proposals should be submitted no later than

                  ******* Monday July 2, 2007. *******

Authors of proposals will be notified of the committee's decision no
later than Monday September 10, 2007. Proposers should follow the
guidelines below while preparing their submissions; proposals that
deviate can not be considered.
