[CogSci] CogSIMA deadline March 18

[Christian Lebiere]

The paper submission deadline for the CogSIMA conference has been extended
to March 18:

http://www.wikicfp.com/cfp/servlet/event.showcfp?eventid=68884&copyownerid=73015

CogSIMA 2018 continues and expands the research domain of situation
management that was established by the first conference CogSIMA 2011. The
aim of CogSIMA conferences is to provide a venue for presenting scientific
results on interdisciplinary studies of complex heterogeneous dynamical
systems that include humans, physical systems, and computer agents whose
behaviors depend on situations.

All papers must present original and unpublished work that is not currently
under review elsewhere. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three
independent referees. Papers will be evaluated according to their
significance, originality, technical content, style, clarity, and relevance
to the conference. At least one author of each accepted paper is required
to attend the conference. Three types of paper submissions will be
accepted:

Oral Papers (5-7 pages): Papers that describe new results that advance the
state-of-the-art
Poster Papers (3-5 pages): Papers that describe work in progress
Late Breaking Reports (2-3 pages): Papers to present early findings of
cutting-edge research

Quantitative and/or qualitative methods and results are welcome, as well as
hypotheses-driven or more open-ended exploratory work. Submissions must
clearly outline the methodology (manipulations, measurements, environment
and context, etc.) and technologies used, for both replicability and
enabling in-depth review. In addition, research providing novel system
designs, algorithms, interface technologies, and computational methods
supporting elements of situation management are encouraged. It is assumed
that the submitted papers address the issues related to the general domain
of situation management

Topics:
Cognitive models of situation awareness, decision making, and situation
management
Studies of concepts of situation, context, event, goal, intention, action,
activity, behavior in interactive human-machine systems
Situation sensing, perception, comprehension, tracking, prediction and
management
Collaborative decision support
Approaches to spatial and temporal reasoning, reasoning about goals,
intentions and actions, and collective reasoning by teams of human and/or
machine agents
Metrics and evaluation of performance of hybrid human-machine systems
Situation-dependent data integration
Information fusion
Modeling of situations – model acquisition, construction, adaptation and
learning
Models of human-machine collaboration, hybrid and distributed cognition
Ontology-based computing
Context modeling and discovering
Systems, platforms and tools for situation awareness and decision support
System-level experiments
Application-specific research

Call for Special Sessions

Interested attendees are encouraged to propose special sessions, which
consist of five papers that provide a focused discussion of new or
innovative topics. Each proposal must include the session title,
description, and organizers. Special session papers will undergo the same
review process. Special session papers must be clearly indicated when
submitted with a copy sent to the designated special session organizer.

Call for Tutorials

Proposals are invited for half-day tutorials. Tutorials will be held on 11
June 2018. Tutorial proposal must include tutorial title, outline and
description, and bio of the tutorial instructor. Tutorial should be
submitted via EDAS as paper submissions with page limit of 1. For
inquiries, please contact admin at cogsima.org.

Submission Guidelines

Submitted papers should clearly indicate on the first page the submission
type. Authors of accepted papers will need to sign an IEEE copyright
release form and present their paper at the conference. The conference
proceedings will be digitally published by IEEE Systems, Man, and
Cybernetics Society and will be included into the IEEE Explore Digital
Library.
All paper submissions will be handled electronically in EDAS via the
CogSIMA 2018 submission page. Authors should prepare a Portable Document
Format (PDF) version of their full paper in 2-column style (main text in
10-point size) including figures and correct margins. Please use the
stylesheet templates provided by IEEE to assure that your proposal is in
line with our guidelines. For more information contact admin at cogsima.org.

Publication

The conference proceedings will be electronically published in the IEEE
CogSIMA Conference Proceedings and will be included into the IEEE Explore
Digital Library. At least one author of an accepted paper is required to
register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the
paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference unless
the TPC grants permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance of
the event and who is qualified both to present and answer questions.
Non-refundable registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final
IEEE formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. For authors with
multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to 3
papers.

Due Dates

Oral/Poster Papers and Tutorials: March 18, 2018 (Extended Deadline)
