5th International Workshop on Soft Computing Models in Industrial Applications 16th-18th June, 2010 Guimarães, Portugal
soco2010.di.uminho.pt
Soft computing represents a collection or set of computational techniques in machine learning, computer science and some engineering disciplines, which investigate, simulate and analyze very complex issues and phenomena. This workshop is mainly focused on its industrial applications. SOCO 2010 provides interesting opportunities to present and discuss the latest theoretical advances and real world applications in this multidisciplinary research field.
SOCO 2010 will be held in the beautiful and historic city of Guimarães, Portugal, nominated by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage. With exceptional opportunities for sightseeing and gastronomy, Guimarães is a wonderful venue for a great workshop.
Technical Co-Sponsors by: Machine Intelligence Research Labs (MIR Labs) http://www.mirlabs.org/
PLENARY SPEAKER Prof. Ajith Abraham Machine Intelligence Research Labs (MIR Labs), Europe http://www.mirlabs.org
SPECIAL SESSIONS Special sessions confirmed up to now!!
SS1 Hybrid Intelligent Systems and Applications
In addition to regular sessions, participants are encouraged to organize special sessions on specialized topics. Each special session should have at least 4 or 5 quality papers. Special session organizers will solicit submissions; conduct reviews jointly with the HAIS´10 PC and in the same way recommend accept/reject decisions on the submitted papers.
