CALL FOR PAPERS AND PROPOSALS -- COGSCI 2000
The 22nd Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society
13-15 August 2000
Institute for Research in Cognitive Science
University of Pennsylvania
Philadelphia, PA USA
We are pleased to announce CogSci2000, the twenty-second
annual meeting of the Cognitive Science Society, and its
inaugural meeting for the twenty-first century. The
conference will take place August 13-15, 2000 at the
Inn at Penn located near the Institute for Research in
Cognitive Science, in the heart of the University of
Pennsylvania campus. As is fitting for this turn-of-the-
century meeting, we hope that the complement of
contributions will draw the boundaries of cognitive science
as broadly as possible.
PAPERS
Six page submissions presenting new research findings will
be reviewed and, if accepted, published as 6-page papers in
the Proceedings. Maximum word count depends on how many
figures are included and other details, but without figures
about 5000 words will fit into 6 pages of the proceedings.
Accepted papers will be assigned to 20-minute spoken
presentation or a poster session.
POSTERS
Full and student members of the society are invited to
submit research abstracts. These one-page abstracts will be
reviewed by the program committee, and if accepted, will be
published in the proceedings and presented in poster
sessions.
SYMPOSIA
These will consist of 2-hour sessions each consisting of
three or more presentations of well-integrated talks on a
common topic. There may also be a discussant and there will
be time reserved for audience discussion. A summary of the
symposia will be published in the proceedings. Please submit
all proposals for symposia to Bonnie Webber, Symposia Chair,
at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
TUTORIALS
Proposals are solicited to present tutorials at CogSci2000.
The tutorials will provide conference participants with the
opportunity to gain new insights, knowledge, and skills from
a broad range of areas in the field of cognitive science
from an instructional setting. Tutorial topics can come
from any area of cognitive science. Tutorials can be 1 day
or 1/2 day, and computer labs will be available. Tutorials
will be held on the days immediately preceding the
conference. Please submit all tutorial proposals to Toby
Mintz, Tutorial Chair, at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
EDUCATION SESSION
During the main conference, there will be a session
dedicated to Cognitive Science education. Please send your
ideas for this session to Mark Steedman, Education Session
Chair, at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DEADLINE: All submissions must be received by February 15,
2000.
SUBMISSIONS:
All submissions must be sent electronically for review.
