IEEE/WIC/ACM Intelligent Agent Technology 2008
CALL FOR PAPERS
#####################################################################
2008 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on
Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT-08)
December 9-12, 2008, Sydney, Australia
http://datamining.it.uts.edu.au/wi08/html/iat/
Sponsored By
IEEE Computer Society
Web Intelligence Consortium (WIC)
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)
IAT 2008 provides a leading international forum to bring together
researchers and practitioners from diverse fields, such as computer
science, information technology, business, education, human factors,
systems engineering, and robotics, to (1) examine the design
principles and performance characteristics of various approaches in
intelligent agent technology, and (2) increase the cross-fertilization
of ideas on the development of autonomous agents and multi-agent
systems among different domains. By encouraging idea-sharing and
discussions on the underlying logical, cognitive, physical, and
sociological foundations as well as the enabling technologies of
intelligent agents, IAT 2008 will foster the development of novel
paradigms and advanced solutions in agent-based computing.
IAT 2008 will be jointly held with the 2008 IEEE/WIC/ACM International
Conference on Web Intelligence (WI-08). The two conferences will have
a joint opening, keynote, reception, and banquet. Attendees only need
to register for one conference and can attend workshops, sessions,
tutorials, panels, exhibits and demonstrations across the two
conferences. We are also planning a joint panel, joint paper sessions,
and doctor symposium that discuss common problems in the two areas.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
On-Line Submissions and Publication
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
High-quality papers in all IAT related areas are solicited.
Paper submissions should be limited to a maximum of 7 pages in the
IEEE 2-column format, the same as the camera-ready format (see the
Author Guidelines of last year at
http://www.ieeeconfpublishing.org/cpir/AuthorKit.asp?Community=CPS&Facility=CPS_Nov&ERoom=IAT+2007).
All submitted papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee on
the basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity.
Note that IAT'08 will accept ONLY on-line submissions, containing
PDF versions. Please use the Submission Form on the IAT'08
website to submit your paper. Accepted papers will be published in the
conference proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Press that are
indexed by EI.
Submissions accepted as regular papers will be allocated 7 pages in the
proceedings and accorded oral presentation times in the main conference.
Submissions accepted as short papers will be allocated 4
pages in the proceedings and will have a shorter presentation time at
the conference than regular papers.
All co-authors will be notified at all time, for the submission,
notification, and confirmation on the attendance. Submitting a paper
to the conference and workshops means that, if the paper is accepted,
at least one author should attend the conference to present the
paper. The acceptance list and no-show list will be openly published
on-line. For no-show authors, their affiliations will receive a
notification.
A selected number of IAT'08 accepted papers will be expanded and
revised for inclusion in Web Intelligence and Agent Systems: An
International Journal (http://wi-consortium.org/journal.html) and in
Annual Review of Intelligent Informatics
(http://www.wi-consortium.org/annual.html)
The best paper awards will be conferred at the conference on the
authors of (1) the best research paper and (2) the best application
paper. Application-oriented submissions will be considered for the
best application paper award.
More detailed instructions and the On-Line Submission Form can be
found from the IAT'08 homepage: http://datamining.it.uts.edu.au/wi08/html/iat/.
++++++++++
Workshops
++++++++++
As an important part of the conference, the workshop program will
focus on new research challenges and initiatives. All papers accepted
for workshops will be included in the Workshop Proceedings published
by the IEEE Computer Society Press that are indexed by EI, and will be
available at the workshops. Detailed information is available at the
conference homepage.
The Program Committees of the IAT-08 and WI-08 invite proposals for
Workshops. The workshop organizers will be responsible for
advertising the workshop, forming the program committees, reviewing
and selecting the papers, and guaranteeing a high quality worthy of
the prestige and range of the Conference.
Note: we will not have a separate workshop registration fee
(i.e., conference registration covers everything).
++++++++++
Tutorials
++++++++++
IAT'08 also welcomes Tutorial proposals. IAT'08 will include tutorials
providing in-depth background on subjects that are of broad interest
to the Web intelligence community. Both short (2 hours) and long (half
day) tutorials will be considered. The tutorials will be part of the
main conference technical program. Detailed information is available
at the conference homepage.
Note: we will not have a separate tutorials registration fee
(i.e., only one conference registration covers everything).
++++++++++++++++++++
Industry/Demo-Track
++++++++++++++++++++
We solicit Industry/Demo-Track papers by the following methods.
(1) Industry papers of 4 pages can be submitted on the same schedule as
the research track.
(2) Separate 2 page demo proposals can submitted at a later schedule.
(3) Full regular paper submissions can include a demo option.
That is, a full paper submissions will be asked to
specify if they would like to give a demonstration; choice of
demonstrations (while utilizing information from the regular reviewing
process) will be selected based on value as a demonstration.
For options (1) and (2), please find more detailed instructions at
the homepage: http://datamining.it.uts.edu.au/wi08/html/iat/
