PICom-09

The 8th International Conference on Pervasive Intelligence and
Computing

December 12-14, 2009, Chengdu, China

Technical Sponsored by IEEE Chengdu Section

CALL FOR PAPERS

========================================================================
=========

Over the last fifty years, computational intelligence has evolved from
logic-based

artificial intelligence, nature-inspired soft computing, social-oriented
agent

technology to cyber-physical integrated ubiquitous intelligence towards
Pervasive

Intelligence (PI). The International Conference on Pervasive
Intelligence and

Computing is intended to cover all kinds of these intelligent paradigms
as well as

their applications in various pervasive computing. PICom-09 is the next
event, in a

series of highly successful International Conferences on Pervasive
Intelligence and

Computing (PICom), previously held as PCC-03 (Las Vegas, USA, June
2003), PCC-04

(Las Vegas, USA, June 2004), PSC-05 (Las Vegas, USA, June 2005), PCAC-06


(Vienna, Austria, April 2006), PCAC-07 (Niagara Falls, Canada, May
2007), IPC-07

(Jeju, Korea, December 2007), IPC-08 (Sydney, Australia, December 2008).


Topics are divided into 8 tracks, and include but are not limited to the
following:

T1. Artificial Intelligence & Knowledge Computing
