2021 IEEE Conference on Cognitive and Computational Aspects of Situation Management
CogSIMA 2021
- URL: http://www.cogsima2021.org
- Event Date: 2021-05-17 ~ 2021-05-20
- Submission Date: 2020-12-01
Where Cognitive Science meets Computer Science!
Organized by the IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society's Technical Committee on Cognitive Situation Management, the CogSIMA conference series provides the premier venue for discussing complex heterogeneous dynamical systems - of interacting humans, machines, and computer agents - whose collective behavior depends on their cognitive capabilities to comprehend, explain, predict and act upon the surrounding operational situations.
Since 2011 the CogSIMA conferences promote a holistic cognitive approach to multidisciplinary research on dynamic cyber-physical-social systems of systems, whose constituent systems can be autonomous, and often collaborate and interoperate with organisations, machines, computer agents and humans situated in complex dynamic environment. Critical to these systems of systems are their cognitive capabilities to sense, perceive and comprehend situations, reason and act on situations, demonstrate abilities of learning, self-organization and collective intelligence, and their ability to consider the impact of interdependencies with the other systems.
Adhering to its successful interdisciplinary tradition, CogSIMA 2021 will provide an inspiring forum for scientists and practitioners from diverse backgrounds including cognitive science, computer science, artificial intelligence, psychology, and human factors.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINE AND PUBLICATION
--------------------------------------------
Two types of paper submissions will be accepted:
• Regular Papers (5-8 pages): describe new results that advance the state-of-the-art.
• Poster Presentations (3-5 pages): describe work in progress.
Quantitative and/or qualitative methods and results are welcome, as well as hypotheses-driven or more open-ended exploratory work. Submissions must clearly outline the methodology (manipulations, measurements, environment and context, etc.) and technologies used, for both replicability and enabling in-depth review. In addition, research providing novel system designs, algorithms, interface technologies, and computational methods supporting elements of situation management are encouraged. Submitted papers should address issues related to the general domain of situation management.
All papers must present original and unpublished work that is not currently under review elsewhere.
Each paper will be reviewed by at least three independent referees. Papers will be evaluated according to their significance, originality, technical content, style, clarity, and relevance to the conference.
At least one author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference, unless the TPC grants permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance of the event who is qualified both to present and answer questions. All paper submissions will be handled electronically in EDAS.
For authors with multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to 3 papers.
Accepted papers and poster presentations will be included in the final conference proceedings and submitted for publication in the IEEE Xplore® Digital Library
--------------------------------------------
CALL FOR SPECIAL SESSIONS
--------------------------------------------
Attendees are encouraged to propose special sessions, which consist of five papers that provide a focused discussion of new or innovative topics. Each proposal must include the session title, description, and organizers. Special session papers will undergo the same review process. Special session papers must be clearly indicated when submitted with a copy sent to the designated special session organizer.
--------------------------------------------
CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
--------------------------------------------
Proposals are invited for half-day or full-day workshops Workshop proposal must include workshop title, description, and biography of the workshop organizers. Workshop proposal length is limited to 1 page.
--------------------------------------------
CALL FOR TUTORIALS
--------------------------------------------
Proposals are invited for half-day tutorials. Tutorial proposal must include tutorial title, outline and description, and biography of the tutorial instructor. Tutorial proposal length is limited to 1 page.
--------------------------------------------
DUE DATES
