CFP: AISB-50: a convention celebrating 50 years of the AISB

The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (SSAISB) is the largest Artificial Intelligence Society in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1964, the society has an international membership drawn from both academia and industry.   The deadlines for symposia proposals is 22 August 2013. For all enquiries, please contact Prof. Mark Bishop (Chair of the AISB): [email protected]

AISB-50: a convention commemorating both 50 years since the founding of the society for the study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (the AISB) and sixty years since the death of Alan Turing, founding father of both Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, will be held at Goldsmiths, University of London, UK from the 1st to the 4th April 2014. Typical symposia last for one or two days, and can include any type of event of academic benefit: talks, posters, panels, discussions, demonstrations, outreach sessions, etc. Proposals to run symposia are welcomed across all areas of  Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour; some potential themes are listed below:

• Knowledge Representation
• Computational Intelligence and the Computational theory of mind
