We will celebrate the common theme of Big Data in Global Brain and Social Networks and we welcome industry sessions representing both local and international companies developing solutions and running projects related to those areas.
CALL FOR PANEL PROPOSALS
Panel submissions are invited for WI-IAT 2015. Web Intelligence (WI'15) will provide a leading international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in exploring the fundamental roles as well as practical impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (e.g., knowledge representation, planning, knowledge discovery and data mining, intelligent agents, and social network intelligence) on the next generation of Web-empowered products, systems, services, and activities. Intelligent Agent Technology 2015 (IAT'15) will provide a leading international forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from diverse fields, such as computer science, information technology, business, education, human factors, systems engineering, and robotics, to examine the design principles and performance characteristics of various approaches in intelligent agent technology.
The panels shall offer an interactive forum that engages panelists and the audience in lively discussion of important and often controversial issues. Panels should be lively, interactive, informative and relevant. Panels should not be a set of independent talks. The panel chair organizer should facilitate discussion. For example, the chair panel organizer may challenge panelists with questions after short opening statements.
All inquiries and submission of panel proposals should be addressed to the Panel Chairs via e-mail.
