(reuter@informatik.tu-clausthal.de)


First Announcement for WAC 2004 (ISSCI)
http://www.www.wacong.org

The organizing Committee is pleased to invite you to submit papers to and attend the international World Automation Congress 2004 on ISSCI in Seville, June 28 - July 1, 2004. ISSCI – the 5th International Symposium on Soft Computing for Industry with applications of financial engineering – aims to bring together scientists, developers and users of hard- and software applications in which the principles of computational intelligence techniques are involved. By providing a number of themed tracks (both fundamental themes and application areas), the Programme Committee has attempted to provide foci for scientific contributions while offering an opportunity to the participants to engage in stimulating discussions with colleagues who may have quite different application frames of reference.

Furthermore papers are requested dealing with Soft Computing methods in Business Information Systems and Business Informatics as a special track within
the conference.

As the capital of Andalusia, Seville, possesses a high number of world-class conference facilities, communication infrastructures and hotels. Seville is also an ideal place for sightseeing. Its rich cultures and historical attractions such as the Giralda, the Alcazar, the Cathedral and the Barrio Santa Cruz will provide unique experiences for social activities.

Topics:

We solicit papers on theoretical issues and their applications related to Soft Computing Methods. Suggested topics include but are not limited to Theory and Software/Hardware Implementations of soft-computing techniques such as

Neural Nets,
Fuzzy Systems,
Fuzzy-Neural Systems,
Evolutionary Systems

and all kinds of R&D, industrial, medical or financial applications.

Papers and Submissions:

Papers should be submitted via Internet. To submit papers or obtain current information on ISSCI 2004 please visit http://www.in.tu-clausthal.de/conference
