OVERVIEW:

Distributed sensor systems have become a highly active research area due
to their potential for providing diverse new capabilities. Such systems
allow intelligent dense monitoring of physical environments.
The focus of this conference is on distributed computing issues in large-scale
networked sensor systems (including algorithms, applications, systematic design
techniques and tools, and in-network signal and information processing).

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate
current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor systems.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Computation and programming models
- Energy models, minimization, awareness
- Distributed collaborative information processing
- Detection and tracking
- Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness, scalability
- Abstractions for modular design
- Fault tolerance and security
- Languages, operating systems
- Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration
- Dynamic resource management
- Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level)
- Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives
- Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment and operation
- Design automation and application synthesis techniques
- closed-loop control for sensing and actuation
- Case studies: lessons from real world deployments
- Network coding and compression
- Detailed submission guidelines coming soon.

*** 5th International Conference on Hybrid Artificial Intelligence
Systems (HAIS´10) combines symbolic and sub-symbolic
techniques to construct more robust and reliable problem solving models.
Hybrid intelligent systems are becoming popular due to their
capabilities in handling many real world complex problems, involving
imprecision, uncertainty and vagueness, high-dimensionality. They
provide us with the opportunity to use both, our knowledge and row
data to solve problems in a more interesting and promising way.

HAIS´10 provides an interesting opportunity to present and discuss the
latest theoretical advances and real-world applications in this
multidisciplinary research field.

*** TOPICS ***
Topics are encouraged, but not limited to, the combination of at least
two of the following areas in the field of Hybrid Intelligent Systems:
Fusion of soft computing and hard computing
Evolutionary Computation
Visualization Techniques
Ensemble Techniques
Data mining and decision support systems
Intelligent agent-based systems (complex systems), cognitive and
Reactive distributed AI systems
Internet modelling
Human interface
Case base reasoning
Lattice Computing
Chance discovery
Applications in security, prediction, control, robotics, image and
speech signal processing, food industry, biology and medicine, business
and management, knowledge management, artificial societies, chemicals,
pharmaceuticals, geographic information systems, remote sensing,
software engineering, materials and
environment engineering and so on.

*** PAPER SUBMISSION AND PROCCEEDINGS*** Tentative.
HAIS'10 proceedings will be published as in the last editions by
Springer in its series of
Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence - LNAI (part of its prestigious
Lecture Notes in Computer Science - LNCS series).

All submissions will be refereed by experts in the field based on
originality, significance, quality and clarity. Every submitted paper to
HAIS´10 will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee.

Papers must be prepared according to the LNCS-LNAI style template
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) and must be no more than
eight (8) pages long, including figures and bibliography.
