At least one of the authors of the accepted paper will need to present the work at the conference.<br>Please refer to the paper submission page at <a href="http://www.icar2013.org">www.icar2013.org</a> for further details.<br><br>=================<br>Workshops and Tutorials<br>=================<br><br>Proposals for the organization of workshops and tutorials are solicited for ICAR 2013 that address advanced topics in robotics. Workshops should be focused on active areas of research in order to provide an informal forum for participants to exchange new ideas and new directions in developing research. Tutorials should provide self-contained descriptions of established research topics. The primary criteria for selection are anticipated level of interest, impact, novelty or creativity, and technical background of presenters.<br>See the "Workshops and Tutorials" section under "Submissions" at <a href="http://www.icar2013.org">www.icar2013.org</a> for further details.<br>Proposals for workshops and tutorials should be submitted via EasyChair: <a href="https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icar2013">https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icar2013</a><br><br>================<br>Special Journal Issue<br>================<br><br>Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to a special issue of the Journal of Intelligent and Robotics Systems (JINT). Selection of these papers will be based on the originality, significance, and clarity of the work. Extended papers will be subject to the same peer-review process required by JINT before acceptance for publication.<br><br>================<br>Invited Speakers<br>================<br><br>Ronald Arkin, Georgia Tech<br><a href="http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~arkin/">http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~arkin/</a><br><br>Ousamma Khatib, Stanford University<br>http://robotics.stanford.edu/~ok/<br><br>Bruno Siciliano, University of Napoli<br>http://wpage.unina.it/sicilian/<br><br>Kimon Valavanis, University of Denver<br>http://www.engr.du.edu/kvalavanis/<br><br>Richard Volpe, JPL<br>http://www-robotics.jpl.nasa.gov/people/Richard_Volpe/<br><br>=====================<br>Conference Committees<br>=====================<br><br>General Chair<br> Alfredo Weitzenfeld, University of South Florida, USA<br><br>Program Chair<br> Javier Ruiz del Solar, University of Chile, Chile<br><br>Publications Chair<br> Alejandra Barrera, ITAM, Mexico<br><br>Local Chair<br> Gonzalo Tejera, Universidad de la República, Uruguay<br><br>Finance Chair<br> Facundo Benavides, Universidad de la República, Uruguay<br><br>Steering Committee Chair<br> Paolo Fiorini, University of Verona, Italy<br><br>==============================================================<br><br><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;
