Onaindia SCOPE This Symposium is intented to provide an international forum for presentation and discussion of concepts and application of artificial intelligence techniques in the design, implementation, testing, supervision and monitoring of real time control systems. The previous Symposium was held in Delft (1992), and was the first symposium after o three succesful workshops in the same field. The objective of the Symposium is to bring toghether control systems specialists, artificial intelligence specialists and end-users. The main topics covered in the Symposium are: - Real time expert systems shells - Knowledge representation - Intelligent control systems applications - Fuzzy control - Neural networks control - Process monitoring and supervision - Temporal reasoning in process control - Intelligent components architecture - Real-time distributed A.I. architectures - Human interaction - Multi-sensor fusion - Fault detection and emergency control - Adaptive learning control systems - Parallel and distributed knowledge processing - Intelligent controllers CONTRIBUTIONS The Symposium will include both invited sessions and contributed papers. Regular papers Four copies of an extended abstract (2-3 pages, 1000 words) or a draft paper should be received no later than December 15, 1993 by the secretariat address. It must be clearly indicate the new contributions and the relevance to the scope of the Symposium. Invited sessions Proposals for invited sessions including a brief description of the topics and a list of prospective authors and titles should be sent to the Symposium secretariat by December 15, 1993. Paper acceptance The final copy of each accepted papers should reach the organizers by May 1, 1994, after a letter of acceptance in February 1994. Papers are to be prepared according to the Instructions which will be sent to the authors.The papers presented at the Symposium will be published in the AIRTC'94 Preprints,which will be distributed by Pergamon Press.
