第一回 文化とコンピューティング国際会議
(Culture and Computing 2010):論文募集

Postproceedings of the International Conference on Culture and Computing

We are organizing Culture and Computing 2010 as a collection of symposiums, panels, workshops, and exhibitions, hoping to share the issues, activities and research results regarding culture and computing.

To publish academic activities presented at the events of the conference, we invite you to submit papers for the conference post-proceedings that will be published as a volume of Springer Lecture Note Series (LNCS).


Paper

Papers are solicited on any aspect of culture and computing, but should describe research results presented at the symposiums, panels, workshops, or exhibitions in Culture and Computing 2010: at least one of the authors should attend and present their research activities at the conference.

Submit your paper (PDF) written in English including an abstract (150 words) by e-mail to:
culture-postproceedings[at]ai.soc.i.kyoto-u.ac.jp

Camera-ready papers should be 12 to 15 pages long and submitted in Springer LNCS format. Please follow the instructions for authors available at the Springer Web page:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html

Surface mail address and e-mail addresses should be included for all contributing authors.


Review

Since we have a fairly tight schedule, papers for review can be written in Japanese or English in any format. If you already prepared a paper for a workshop in Culture and Computing 2010, you can simply submit it for the conference post-proceedings review. However, if your paper will be accepted, your camera-ready paper should be submitted in English.

In order to ensure a qualified review process, the length of the papers for review should not be too short: at least 8 pages if formatted in the Springer Lecture Note Series (LNCS) format. Submitted papers will be reviewed by three distinguished researchers in the area of culture and computing.


Important Dates

Deadline for titles and abstracts: January 31st, 2010
Deadline for papers for review: February 15th, 2010
Author notification: March 8th, 2010
Deadline for camera ready papers: March 31st, 2010

電子情報通信学会「人工知能と知識処理」「異文化コラボレーション」合同研究会論文募集

インターネットの普及により,地球規模での異文化コラボレーションが可能になりつつあります. しかしながら,その障壁になっているのが言語の違いです.言語の違いは私たちの自由な コミュニケーションを妨げ,コラボレーションをより難しくしています.言語グリッドは, 機械翻訳と情報通信技術を用いてこの問題を解決しようする試みであり,インターネット上の 言語サービス(対訳辞書などの言語資源や機械翻訳などの言語処理機能)を自由に組み合わせて, 様々な機械翻訳システムやアプリケーションを構築可能にする情報プラットフォームです.

本研究会では,言語グリッドとそれに関連する異文化コラボレーションに関する以下のような研究発表を募集します.

  • 言語グリッドのための要素技術(言語サービス,オントロジ,情報検索,利用者インタフェース,サービス統合,Webコラボレーション,エージェント技術など)
  • 言語グリッドのためのプラットフォーム技術(グリッド,P2Pなど)
  • 言語グリッドにおける利用者支援
  • 言語グリッドのビジネス応用
  • 異文化コラボレーションのためのツールやアプリケーション
  • 異文化コラボレーションに関するフィールドワークや実践


テーマ

言語グリッドと異文化コラボレーション


申込方法

発表申込(氏名,所属,論文タイトル,アブストラクト[100~200字])は以下のURLから受け付けます.
