- Call for Participation
- The Sixth International Symposium of
- Robotics Research
-
- The Sixth International Symposium of Robotics Research will be held
- near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, from October 2 to 5, 1993. The
- goal of the symposium is to bring together active, leading robotics
- researchers from academia, government, and industry, to define the
- state of the art of robotics and its future direction.
-
- The symposium will be held in an informal setting with a limited
- number of participants in order to maximize interaction. During the
- four-day symposium, approximately fifty papers will be presented, in a
- single track, to cover the broad research area of robotics; some
- papers will be presented in sessions focused on specific research
- areas, others will be presented in a panel format to facilitate group
- discussion.
-
- Papers representing authoritative reviews of established research
- areas as well as papers reporting on new areas are sought for
- presentation at the symposium. A number of leading researchers will
- be asked to submit an extended abstract outlining a paper representing
- their area of research to be presented at the symposium. Researchers
- who feel that they have made a significant new contribution to
- robotics are invited to submit an abstract. All abstracts will be
- reviewed by the symposium Program Committee before final acceptance.
- Extended abstracts are due by February 1, 1993, to either Program
- Chairman. Decisions of acceptance will be made by April 1, 1993, and
- the final papers are due by September 1, 1993.
-
- The proceedings of the symposium will be published as a book, with
- introductions to each section written by senior members of the
- robotics research community. Attendance at the symposium is limited
- to the presenters and to invited participants.
