Call For Papers Modeling and Simulation for Cognitive Computation at the
International Workshop on Innovative Simulation for Healthcare (IWISH 2012) as
part of the I3M conference, September 19-21, 2012, Wien, Austria http://www.msc-les.org/Conf/IWISH2012/index_file/MSforCognitiveComputation.htm
The goal of this special session is to explore the use of
Modeling and Simulation (M&S) in the emerging inter-disciplinary domain of
Cognitive Computation that bridges the gap between life sciences, social
sciences, engineering, physical and mathematical sciences, and humanities.
Cognitive Computation is an exciting area of multi-disciplinary research
covering biologically inspired computational accounts of all aspects of natural
and artificial cognitive systems. Authors of selected papers presented at the Special
Session will be invited to submit expanded and significantly revised versions
of their manuscripts to a follow-on Special Issue of Springer's Cognitive
Computation journal (SCI-E Indexed). Details will follow the Conference. For
the proposed Special Session, we welcome papers, not submitted elsewhere for
review, with a focus on modeling, simulation and engineering of systems in the
domain of cognitive computation. Topics of interest range from, but are not
limited to: Techniques of interest: . Agent-based Modeling . Complex Network based Models . Multimodal methods for analysis of data . Other methods from Artificial intelligence, neural
networks, cognitive neuromorphic engineering and other hardware
implementations, cognitive robotics, autonomous cognitive systems,
neuroscience, nanotechnology, self-organizing, swarm and immune systems,
complex systems and control theory, and computational cognitive neuroscience. . General purpose modeling & simulation paradigms Areas of Application: . Brain, cognition, perception, action, attention, learning,
memory, decision-making, language processing, communication, reasoning, problem
solving, and consciousness aspects of cognition. Example topics . Modeling & Simulation of Cognitive disorders
(Schizophrenia, dementia etc.) . Modeling & Simulation of Brain and other cognitive
functions . Use of agent-based and complex network methods in the
development of autonomous systems . Social Network Analysis to study spread of Brain/Cognition
related diseases . Use of cognition, attention, consciousness in robotics,
sensors and autonomous systems . Management of Healthcare related to psychology/psychiatry . Verification and Validation of Cognitive Computation
related simulations . Modeling and Simulation of Body Sensor Networks for
cognitive health . Modeling, Simulation and development of Pervasive and
Ambient Assisted Living systems, Disease tracking and monitoring systems for
Cognitive disorders . Modeling and simulation of consensus formation in brain Key Dates Submissions of Extended Abstracts:

July
1, 2012 Authors' Guidelines (further information author's
instruction section) FIRST SUBMISSION Extended abstracts (minimum 2 pages), full draft papers or
other proposals should be submitted for the review process through the
submission section by April 12, 2012. The extended abstract or the full draft
paper must contain title, authors, affiliations, addresses, main body and
references. Each extended abstract or full draft paper will be reviewed by at
least two members of the International Program Committee taking into
consideration scientific quality, originality and relevance. Only original
papers, written in English will be accepted. The extended abstract or the full draft paper should be
prepared by following the final paper formatting. However any type of paper
formatting can be accepted for the first submission. NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE Notification of acceptance will be sent by May 12, 2012. CAMERA READY PAPER SUBMISSION The International Program Committee will accept two types of
camera ready papers: extended paper (10 pages, 2 columns); regular paper (6
pages, 2 columns) both for regular and special sessions. The camera ready paper
must adhere to the conference template. The .dot file contains the complete
instructions for preparing a camera ready copy for the Proceedings. The final
version of the paper must be a PDF file. Details of Cognitive Computation: http://www.springer.com/biomed/neuroscience/journal/12559 Your camera ready paper (extended paper or regular paper) in
PDF format must be submitted by using the submission section before the June
12, 2012 The page limit for manuscripts is ten (10) pages (included
in the author registration fee).Additional pages will require an
additional fee. If your work must be cleared or approved before publication by
your institution, company, or governmental agency, please be sure that
process will be completed by the due date above or we will not be able to
include it in the CD Conference Proceedings. Contacts Chairs: (a) Muaz Niazi, (b) Amir Hussain Affiliation: (a) COMSATS University of Science and
