Electronic Paper Submission
Papers are invited on all aspects of computational intelligence in robotics and automation. Six pages are allowed for each paper. Up to four additional pages will be permitted with extra charge. Full-length papers in standard IEEE format must be submitted electronically in PDF (Portable Document Format) file format as per the electronic submission instructions published on the CIRA 2007 web site.
Special Session, Tutorial and Workshop Proposals
Proposals for special sessions consisting of four papers and for half and full day tutorials and workshops are welcome. Proposals should include a statement of purposes and a summary with a list of speakers and their topics with abstracts. Further information will be posted on the conference web site.
Location
The conference will be held at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront in the downtown riverfront area of Jacksonville, Florida, near the beautiful river walks on banks of the St. Johns River. Centrally located in the city, the downtown riverfront hotel area is nearby to Jacksonville’s historic district – San Marco.
In addition to the many cultural attractions, World Class golf is just 5 miles from the hotels and the Jacksonville Beaches are just 15 minutes away by car. Ponte Vedra Beach, home to the PGA Tournament at Sawgrass is 20 minutes away adjacent to Jacksonville Beach, and also has very attractive beaches.
