Dear Colleague,
I would like to invite you to the 42nd Annual Conference of Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology (CAA), held at Institut d’Art et d’Archéologie, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, Paris, on 22–25 April 2014.
CAA (
http://caaconference.org/) is an international and multidisciplinary academic community in archaeology, heritage management, computer science, informatics, and adjoining fields of research. An annual conference usually has plenary sessions, parallel sessions, poster sessions, hands-on workshops, roundtables, and scientific excursions, with hundreds of participants.
CAA welcomes papers or posters related to (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Field and laboratory data recording
- Historiography
- Ontologies and standards
- Internet and archaeology
- 3D Archaeology
- AIS (Archaeological Information Systems)
- GIS & spatial analysis
- Mathematics and Statistics in Archaeology
- Open source
- Computing in Epigraphy and History
- Multi-agent systems and complex system modelling
- Virtual Archaeology
GIS, remote sensing, and spatio-temporal analysis have been one of major topics of CAA for decades, as they has in geoarchaeology.
Therefore, I recommend this conference to my friends and colleagues in the IAG Working Group on Geoarchaeology.
Abstracts are due 31 October 2013.
I wish this announcement is of your interest, and hope to see you in Paris next April.
Best regards,
Kondo
