CODATA participates on various levels in the interpretation and modelling processes provided by quantitative contributions of data, information and knowledge collected either experimentally or created through computer simulation. CODATA naturally takes part in multidisciplinary and wide ranging problem analysis through its experience in computerised data treatment. CONFERENCE The conference will be organised around sessions in the area of scientific and technical data challenges in the traditional sectors of industry, physics and chemistry as well as bio-, geo- and space sciences. International and national mission-oriented institutions, agencies and scientific societies are collaborating in its organisation. To provide an appropriate framework for discussions, the Conference will be centred around three main symposia : environment, materials and communication. "COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN OF SYSTEMS AND OF COMMUNICATION" SYMPOSIUM This symposium will bring together experts dealing with large data systems, complex data handling, networking and cross-discipline communication. The goal will to be improve access to and utilisation of different types of scientific and technical databases. In order to cover the different aspects of this subject, the symposium will be divided into sessions. "KNOWLEDGE AND DATA INTERPLAY" SESSION Until recently, knowledge and data in science were often confused. Knowledge models (e.g object) is often associated with artificial intelligence applications (expert systems and knowledge base systems), but their importance for Database Management Systems is growing. The papers to be submitted for this session cover several areas including : - knowledge representation, (classification, retrieval, data meaning) - object oriented models - databases - interaction between databases and knowledge bases papers describing applications are welcome. HOW TO SUBMIT You are invited to submit an abstract of 500 words or more to : Prof. Christophe ROCHE LGIS - Universite de Savoie 73 376 Le Bourget du Lac cedex France fax : (33) 79 75 88 88 e-mail : roche@univ-savoie.fr The abstracts should be submitted before May 1st, 1994. The notifications of acceptance or rejection will be sent before June 1st, 1994. The papers presented at the conference will be included in the published proceedings (full papers should be sent before 1st September).
