Sistemas Inteligentes

Intelligent Systems

Focusing on a fundamental area of research in Artificial Intelligence, the track on Intelligent Systems will be, in the context of INFORUM 2009, the forum for presenting the most recent and innovative work in the area of intelligent systems. These systems can take decisions by themselves or by interacting and cooperating with humans. They have a wide range of applications, for example: healthcare, finance and emergency response, just to refer a few.

The purpose of this session is to provide an international discussion forum on the most recent and innovative scientific research and applications in the areas of intelligent systems. The unifying focus will be on the methodological aspects. Both theoretical research and more practical one should be situated in the context of existing or new methodologies. This framework is not intended to preclude any specific topic, but preference will be given to research work establishing some connection with the methodological aspects or to successful applications built upon some existing or developing methodology.

Theoretical papers should make clear the significance and relevance of the theoretical results to the Intelligent Systems community, while more practical, applied ones, should clearly relate to the state of the art and make clear their own contribution. Acceptance will take into account originality, significance and quality of contribution.
