Dear FRIAM folks:
We were extremely pleased with the turnout and participation of last
year's AAAI Fall Symposium on CAS and the Threshold Effect. With
over 70 participants, it turned out to be quite an exciting week!
Therefore, we have decided to continue with a second event this
year, to be held November 11th - 13th. Planning is already underway
and we are currently preparing our proposal to the AAAI.
This year's proposed theme will be ... Complex Adaptive Systems and
Resilience: Views from the Natural and Social Sciences. In some
disciplines, this concept may be more commonly referred to as
"robustness," "homeostasis," or "basins of attraction." But
whatever the term, we will be exploring the common phenomenon of
complex systems that exhibit the ability to persist in, and adapt
to, a changing environment. As with last year's symposium, we will
solicit papers and proposals that cover a wide variety of domains,
in order to continue our efforts to build a community of researchers
from across disciplines.
As part of the proposal process, AAAI asks that we provide a list of
folks who may be interested in attending this event. As before, you
don't have to commit at this time ... simply reply back via email if
you would like to participate in any way, or simply be kept abreast
of developments as we continue the planning process.
Please include your name and current affiliation so that we can list
that information in our proposal.
Thanks, everyone, and I look forward to hearing from you. And feel
free to pass this along to folks you think may be interested!
Sincerely,
Ted Carmichael
