> RoboCup International Symposium 2018
> Call for Papers
> 
> OVERVIEW
> 
> The 22nd Annual RoboCup International Symposium will be held in conjunction
> with RoboCup 2018. The Symposium is a primary venue for presentation and
> discussion of scientific contributions to a variety of research areas
> related to all RoboCup divisions (RoboCup Soccer, RoboCup Rescue, RoboCup at
> Home, RoboCup at Work, and RoboCup Junior). Its scope includes, but is not
> restricted to, research and educational activities in robotics and
> artificial intelligence.
> 
> Due to its interdisciplinary nature, the Symposium offers a unique venue for
> exploring both theory and practice in wide spectrum of research fields. The
> experimental, interactive, and benchmark character of the RoboCup initiative
> presents an opportunity to disseminate novel ideas and promising
> technologies, rapidly adopted and field-tested by a large, and still
> growing, community.
> 
> SUBMISSION
> 
> We solicit submissions of papers reporting high-quality, original research
> with relevance to robotics and artificial intelligence; topics of interest
> include, but are not limited to, the AREAS OF INTEREST listed below.
> Researchers in these areas, even if not actively participating in RoboCup
> teams, are urged to submit their work. We welcome both papers describing
> real- world research and papers reporting theoretical results, 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.
> 
> The proceedings of the RoboCup International Symposium are published and
> archived within the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence
> (LNAI) series. 
> Submitted papers are limited to 12 pages formatted according to the LNAI
> requirements (http://www.springer.com/series/1244 [1]) and must be
> electronically submitted through the symposium website:
> https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=robocupsymposium2018 [2].
> 
> All contributions are peer-reviewed by a number of reviewers, and evaluated
> by members of the senior program committee.
> 
> DEVELOPMENT TRACK
> 
> To encourage open-source release of hardware and software components, a
> special track on open-source development will be part of the 2018 RoboCup
> International Symposium. Contributions to this track are limited to eight
> pages, formatted according to LNAI requirements. Contributions should
> include evidence of impact of the released component on the RoboCup
> community. Review of these contributions will be based on technical
> contribution and benefit to the RoboCup community.
