RoboCup International Symposium 2006
Bremen, Germany, 19-20 June 2006

>>> CALL FOR PAPERS >>> CALL FOR PAPERS <<< CALL FOR PAPERS <<<
OVERVIEW
The 10th annual RoboCup International Symposium will be held in
conjunction with RoboCup-2006. The Symposium represents the core
meeting for presentation and discussion of scientific contributions in
diverse areas related to the three main threads within RoboCup:
Soccer, Rescue and RoboCupJunior. Its scope encompasses, but is not
restricted to, research and education activities within the fields of
Artificial Intelligence and Robotics.
Following is a list of the major tracks of interest.
* multiagent systems and multi-robot systems:
-- learning and adaptive systems
-- cooperation and collaboration
-- teamwork and heterogeneous agents
-- dynamic resource allocation
-- adjustable autonomy
-- planning, reasoning and modeling
-- simulation
* sensory processing and control:
-- robot vision (including omnidirectional)
-- image processing
-- self-localization and navigation
-- world modeling
-- sensor-motor control
-- distributed sensor networks
* robot hardware and software:
-- system integration and software engineering
-- real-time and concurrent programming
-- robot programming environments and languages
-- embedded and mobile hardware
-- mobile robots and humanoids
-- new devices and materials for robots
* human-robot interaction:
-- visualization
-- speech synthesis and natural language generation
-- human-robot interfaces
* applications:
-- disaster rescue information systems
-- search and rescue robots
-- service robots
-- robots at home
* education and edutainment:
-- AI, robotics and science education
-- educational robotics
-- computer and robotic entertainment
SUBMISSION
We solicit submissions of papers reporting on high quality, original
work with relevance to the areas described above. The RoboCup
International Symposium includes, but is not limited to, these areas.
Due to its interdisciplinary nature and the exploration of various and
intimate connections of theory and practice across a wide spectrum of
different fields, the symposium offers an excellent opportunity to
introduce new techniques to various scientific disciplines. The
experimental, interactive and benchmark character of the RoboCup
initiative creates the opportunity to present, learn and evaluate
novel ideas and approaches with significant potential. If promising,
they are then rapidly adopted and field-tested by a large (and still
strongly growing) community. In particular, we would like to urge
also people not actively participating in a RoboCup team to submit
their work on above or related topics, as the RoboCup initiative
provides a uniquely powerful, effective and visible platform for rapid
evaluation and dissemination of successful scientific and
technological approaches. The introduction of RoboCup at Home, new for
2006, provides additional opportunity to expand the areas of
discussion at the Symposium.
Both papers describing real-world research and papers dealing with
strong theoretical results are welcome, as well as combinations
thereof. We also encourage the submission of high-quality overview
articles for any field related to the general scope of RoboCup,
especially the ones listed above. The proceedings of RoboCup are
published within the Springer LNAI series. All submissions to the
International Symposium are automatically entered in the selection
process for the RoboCup "Scientific Challenge Award", which recognizes
outstanding research within a field related to the scope of the
Symposium.
SUBMISSION FORMAT and INSTRUCTIONS
Submitted papers should follow the Springer LNAI format and are
limited to 12 pages. Instructions for formatting can be found at:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
Papers will be submitted electronically via ConfMaster and will be
blind-reviewed. Instructions on the electronics submission process
will be published on the symposium website.
The electronic submission process requires a PDF file of the full
paper, and the separate submission of an abstract.
