征文|IS4SI 2019(Berkeley,6.2-6.6)

国际信息研究学会（IS4IS: The International Society for the Study of Information）是一个研究信息科学、信息技术和信息社会等相关领域的全球性跨学科组织，通过学科之间的对话为全球的科学家、研究机构、企业单位、社会组织提供支持。学会每两年举行一次国际峰会，峰会旨在反映数字化、信息化在全球范围对社会方方面面的改变，为可持续发展的社会做出实际的贡献。

Here at UC Berkeley, just a short distance from Silicon Valley, the International Society for the Study of Information (IS4SI) invites you to join us in a discussion about the theoretical, practical, and ethical challenges posed by the growth of information technology. Taking advantage of the many IT luminaries and visionaries who live and work in the Bay Area, the theme of the 2019 Summit will focus on what AI is, isn’t, could be, and shouldn’t be, as well as to consider how it is related to mental processes produced by brains and to the different concepts of information.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

We aim to bring together a diverse gathering of researchers and scholars spanning the many domains of information science, philosophy, and sociology to meet and discuss, to present state of the art demonstrations, and to envisage possible futures.

As a hub for building a network for intellectual cooperation we hope to expand our shared knowledge for promotion of a humane and sustainable infosphere.

The general aims of the summit are:

• to explore the impact of the sciences of information and machine information processes (e.g. computation and information media) on social processes and meaning-making (e.g. cognition).

• to explore the foundations of the sciences of information, computation, communication, and cognition.

The Summit is planned as a gathering of workshops, conferences, tracks, poster sessions, and demonstrations connected by commonplenary talks, social events, exhibitions, discussions, etc.

We invite participants to submit proposals for oral or poster presentations. Presentation proposals should be submitted as PDF files that include title, an abstract of no more than 300 words, proposers’ names, titles, affiliations, and primary contact email.
