From: William K. Erickson <WKE@SU-AI.ARPA> Call For Papers ****************************************************************** SPACE STATION AUTOMATION to be held in conjunction with the International Conference on INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND COMPUTER VISION II ****************************************************************** Part of the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers' (SPIE) 1985 Cambridge Symposium on Optical and Electro-Optical Engineering 15-20 September 1985 Hyatt Regency Cambridge Cambridge, Massachusetts Chairman: Wun C. Chiou, Sr., NASA/Ames Research Center In the next decade an increasing amount of research will be devoted to the applications of artificial intelligence and robotics technology to space station automation. The purpose of the conference is to bring together researchers in the areas of artificial intelligence, image science and robotics who are working on various aspects of space station automation. Papers on the following and related topics as applied to this unique microgravity, high vacuum, high radiation environment are invited. Topics of interest include: * Space automation and tele-science * Image understanding and scene analysis * Machine/computer vision * Autonomous/self-organizing systems * Hardware architecture designs * Knowledge-based expert systems If you are interested in participating in this conference, please leave your name and address at the SPIE Registration Desk, or contact: Cambridge 1985 SPIE P.O.
