Each discipline uses its own specific methods to model time and space. Further, there are diverse ways in which spatio-temporal reasoning is applied in different application domains. This workshop seeks to bring together researchers from different fields to exchange and share ideas on this subject. This one day workshop will be organised in Singapore in conjunction with the International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Computer Vision on 8th of November 1994. The format of the workshop will be a single track session where participants will present their work and have time to discuss and summarise the presented work. It is the aim of the workshop to provide a forum for formal presentation and informal discussions. The number of participants will be limited to around 30 to allow for meaningful discussions. TOPICS Submissions are invited in the following areas ( not an exclusive list): Spatial and Temporal Representation in Vision and AI Intelligent Systems Intelligent Control Planning Learning Spatial /Temporal concepts Spatial/temporal reasoning Inexact reasoning Diagrammatic reasoning INVITED SPEAKERS Prof J. Egenhofer National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis and Department of Surveying Engineering Department of Computer Science University of Maine Prof. M.F. Land Sussex Centre for Neuroscience School of Biological Sciences University of Sussex DUE DATES Papers due 1st July 1994 Notification of acceptance 1st August 1994 Final Camera ready papers 9th September 1994 FORMAT Authors are invited to submit three copies of their paper. The length of the paper should not exceed 20 (double spaced) pages including diagrams and tables. Papers can be addressed to Ms Michelle D'Cunha Curtin University of Technology PO BOX U1987 Perth, WA 6001 Australia The proceedings of the workshop will be published, and distributed to the participants at the workshop. Authors of selected papers may be invited to submit a paper to a special issue of an archival journal related to the topic of spatial reasoning. Any questions regarding the technical content of the workshop should be directed to either of the co-chairs.
