CFP: EH-2004 Second Call for Abstracts

Dear Colleague,

The abstract submission deadline (December 1st, 2003) for the 2004 NASA/DoD Conference on Evolvable Hardware is now approaching. The main purpose of the one-page abstract is to provide the authors early feedback before submitting the full paper. This will also allow the Conference organization to start preparing the sessions in advance.

Due to the one-page limit of the abstract, we would encourage the authors to outline the forthcoming paper contents, explain the main objectives of their research and summarize expected results if that is the case.

The conference web site is at:

Please do not hesitate to contact the Conference Chair, Ricardo S. Zebulum, ( snipped-for-privacy@brain.jpl.nasa.gov) if you have any questions.

Abstracts should be submitted electronically to snipped-for-privacy@cism.jpl.nasa.gov.

Hope to see you in Seattle!!!!

2004 NASA/DoD Conference on Evolvable Hardware

June 24- 26, 2004 Seattle, Washington, USA Hotel (TBD), Seattle, WA

Sponsored by: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Department of Defense (DoD)

Supported by: Life Detection Science and Technology, JPL (LDST, JPL) Space Exploration Technology Program, JPL (SETP, JPL) Information Sciences and Technology Directorate, NASA Ames Research Center(NASA Ames) Computing, Information and Communications Technology Program, NASA Ames Research Center(CICT) Advanced Computing Applications Office, NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) Navy Center for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence, Naval Research Laboratory (NRL)

Hosted by: Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL, EHW group at JPL)

The 2004 NASA/DoD Conference on Evolvable Hardware (EH-2004) builds upon the tradition of the successful series of NASA/DoD Workshops (the first Workshop hosted by JPL in Pasadena, 1999; the second Workshop hosted by NASA Ames in Palo Alto, 2000; and the third Workshop hosted by JPL in Long Beach in 2001) and Conferences (2002 hosted by NASA Goddard in Washington, DC and

2003 hosted by AMES in Chicago ) on Evolvable Hardware. Evolvable Hardware is an emerging field that applies evolution to automate design and adaptation of physical reconfigurable and morphable structures such as electronic systems, antennas, MEMS and robots. The purpose of this conference is to bring together leading researchers from the evolvable hardware community, representatives of the automated design and programmable/reconfigurable hardware communities, technology developers and end-users from the aerospace, military and commercial sectors.

Evolvable hardware techniques enable self-reconfigurability, adaptability and learning by programmable devices and thus have the potential to significantly increase the functionality of deployable hardware systems. Evolvable Hardware is expected to have major impact on deployable systems for space systems and defense applications that need to survive and perform at optimal functionality during long duration in unknown, harsh and/or changing environments. It is also expected to greatly enhance the capability of systems that need modification, upgrade and learning without interrupting their operation.

This year's Conference will introduce two new features: early submission of abstracts previous to full-paper submission and the organization of Special Sessions.

SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS

Prospective authors are invited to submit the electronic version of their abstract (ie PS, PDF, MSWord) by email to snipped-for-privacy@cism.jpl.nasa.gov . The abstract is limited to 1 page and should be submitted in single-spaced, 10 point type on a 8.5"x11" or equivalent paper with 1" margins on all sides. Each submission should contain the following items: (1) title of paper, (2) author name(s), (3) first author physical address, (4) first author e-mail address, (5) first author phone number, (6) the text of the abstract, and (7) references.
