                   CALL FOR PAPERS

                      ICCM-2006: 
The 7th International Conference on Cognitive Modeling
      
           Trieste, Italy, 5 - 8 April 2006


The International Conference on Cognitive Modeling provides an international 
forum that allows cognitive scientists pursuing computational modeling to 
present, discuss and evaluate their models, to compare different architectural 
approaches, and to further the development, accumulation and integration of 
cognitive theories. 

The goal of ICCM-2006 is to foster the development of models of human cognition 
based on a principled integration of analytical, experimental and computational 
tools capable of providing theoretical accounts of phenomena spanning different 
levels of analysis, from the behavioral to the neuronal ones.

ICCM-2006 invites the submission of papers from the whole scope of modeling 
approaches including, but not restricted to,symbolic, connectionist, hybrid, 
neural, Bayesian, statistical and mathematical models.  

Authors are strongly encouraged (but not obliged) to include in the submission 
the code of the models discussed in their work.
