Call for Papers
The fields of cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and the
social
sciences can together create a better understanding of cognition and
social
processes than they can independently of each other. Some efforts in
social
sciences, especially social simulations, have evolved an understanding
of
social processes in societies independently from the other two
fields.
However Sun (2006) among other has shown that there is relation
between
individual cognition and social processes. Can this connection be
understood
by exploring the relation****p between computational cognitive modeling
and
social simulation? How is the cognition of a society different from
individual cognition? In this session we will examine
these questions and many more. We invite submissions of research
that
investigate any of the following topics: (1) the relation between
individual
and social cognition, (2) multi-agent models that are related to
advances in
individual cognition, (3) social simulations that utilize cognitive
science
or artificial intelligence techniques, (4) aspects of social cognition
that
require modeling, and (5) the integration of cognitive models of
learning
into multi-agent
interaction.

Submission of Papers
Authors are invited to submit their draft paper (between 5 to 7 pages
-
single space, font size of 10 to 12) to Sule Yildirim
(suley@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
)
or Bill Rand (wrand@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
) before the deadline. E-mail
submissions in MS do***ent or PDF formats are preferable. All
reasonable
typesetting formats are acceptable. These are general guidelines, if
you
would like to submit in a different format please contact the
coordinators.
Papers must not have been previously published or current submitted
for
publication elsewhere. Upon acceptance authors will be asked to follow
the
IEEE style format in preparing their papers for publication (max. 7
pages).
The first page of the submission should include:
-Title of the paper
-Name, affiliation, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number
and fax
number for each author
-Name of the author who will present the paper should be indicated
-A maximum of five keywords
Session Format
The session will begin with an overview of the topic by the
coordinators,
and the peer-reviewed papers will then be orally presented. If time
permits
a wrap-up discussion will take place at the end of the session.
Im****tant Dates
Extended Submission deadline: 20 March, 2007.
Notification of acceptance: 7 April, 2007.
Camera-ready due: 27 April, 2007.
Conference registration deadline: 27 April, 2007.
Conference dates: June 25-28, 2007
See ICAI'07 website for complete details.
Publication
The conference proceedings will be published by CSREA Press (ISBN) in
hardcopy. The proceedings will be available for distribution at the
conference .
Some accepted papers will also be considered for journal publication
(soon
after the conference). All conference proceedings published by CSREA
Press
are considered for inclusion in major database indexes that are
designed to
provide easy access to the current literature of the sciences
(database
examples: ISI Thomson Scientific, IEE INSPEC, DBLP, ...).
