International Workshop on Industrial Applications of Machine Intelligence and Vision(MIV-89) Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan April 10-12, 1989 FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS International Workshop on Industrial Applications of Machine Intelligence and Vision will be held in Tokyo, April 10-12, 1989. The Workshop is co-sponsored by IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, and IIS (Institute of Industrial Sci- ence, University of Tokyo). This is a follow-on interna- tional workshop to the successful 1st workshop held in February 1987 at the same place. The purpose of the Workshop is to stimulate interna- tional exchange and discussions on the two key technologies, "AI" and "Vision", for building tomorrow's industrial sys- tems and society. As seen in the title of the workshop, we emphasize advanced AI and Vision technologies applicable to industrial problems. Topics of interest include: * Foundations for AI and Vision Systems Knowledge Representation and Inference, Spatial Reason- ing, Vision Algorithms, Learning and Knowledge Acquisi- tion, New-Generation Programming, Cooperative/Parallel Processing, etc. * AI Technologies in the fields of Expert Systems (Diagnosis, Planning/Scheduling, Design), CAD, Control Systems, Robotics, Office Automa- tion, Human Interface, etc. * Vision Technologies in the fields of Pattern Information Processing, Factory Automation, Robotics, Multi-Media Database, Human Interface, etc. * Hardware Architectures for AI and/or Vision Systems Realtime/Parallel Hardware, Dedicated Processor, AI Computers, etc. * Advanced Environments for AI and Vision Systems All presentation will be in English. Presentations at the Workshop will be considered for publication in the IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics. Those who are working in the above fields are invited to submit an 800-word summary of their work. The summary, which may include figures, must be informative, since the paper will be selected on the basis of the summary. Four copies of the summary should be mailed before November 21, 1988 to: Prof. Mitsuru Ishizuka Institute of Industrial Science, University of Tokyo 7-22-1, Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo, 106, Japan Phone: +81-3-402-6231 ext.2651 or +81-3-470-5389(direct) Telefax: +81-3-402-5078 Telex: 02423216 IISTYOJ Acceptance of papers will be notified by December 20, 1988. Authors of accepted papers will receive an author's kit for the paper to be published in the Workshop Proceed- ings. The paper, which is 6 pages at maximum, must be received by February 10, 1989.
