CONFERENCE THEME

CCSO'93 focuses on the communication  aspects of
Cognitive Computer Science  for organizations  (CCSO), whatever
objectives and  means of such communication. It is concerned
with the development and use of knowledge intensive applications.

CCSO'93 investigates classes of applications
facilitating the implementation of communication systems able to
orchestrate various sub-systems for task performance support,
information retrieval, decision-making and intelligent training.

During CCSO'93, we will also discuss tools and techniques for
developing such systems, seeking research results
in relation to concepts, methods, tools and
techniques for knowledge modeling, natural-language
processing,  media integration, cognitive ergonomy and
communication of knowledge at a distance.

SUB-THEMES

A) Knowledge Communication Support Systems for
1. Intelligent Training
2. Task Performance
3. Information  Retrieval
4. Decision-Making
5. Integrated information and knowledge communication

B) Tools and Techniques
1. Knowledge Modeling
2. Natural Language Processing
3. Intelligent Interfaces and Cognitive Ergonomics
4. Document Structuring and Multi-Media Integration
5. The virtual organization:  creating, communicating, and living
    with distributed knowledge and expertise*

* Researchers are particularly encouraged to consider the
  presentation of a paper in relation to this subtheme;

- environmental pressures and organizational responses:
        competition, cooperation, and collaboration
- knowledge capital:  its creation and distribution,
        within and between organizations
- organizational redesign and new organizational structures:
        just-in-time knowledge building, distributed virtual
        work groups, telework, and electronic nomads
- obstacles to creating and using electronic collective
        intelligence (economical, social, psychological,
        organizational and technological)
- the concomitant human and organizational issues
(please direct any questions about this section to Duncan Sanderson
                                [e-mail])
