[Reliable Computing] FW: CFP for an international conference on intuitionistic fuzzy sets

Dear Friends, This may be of interest to some of us since so-called intuitionistic fuzzy sets are closely
related to interval-valued ones.

[Reliable Computing] Moore prize: extended call for nominations

Dear Friends, 

Please find below the extended call for nominations. 

The reason for this extension is as follows. In the past, we only asked for papers and dissertations,
because in the mathematics community, new results are usually published first in papers and/or
dissertations, and books are usually overviews of results published elsewhere. However, several
colleagues have raised an important issue: that we are interested in applications, not just in pure math,
and in many application areas, new results are often first published in books. We do not want to limit the
scope of applications, so we decided to add books to the list of things that can be nominated. 

Because of the increased scope, we decided to extend the deadline, so please submit your nominations by
February 29, 2012. 

Many thanks to those who have already submitted several excellent applications; if you have already
submitted, there is no need to re-submit.

Vladik

P.S. My apologies for the inconvenience.

[Reliable Computing] new ACM Fellows

The latest (February 2012) issue of Communications of the ACM, the main computer science professional
organization, has a list of new ACM Fellows. Some of the folks on this list are familiar to many of us in the
interval computations community. 

This list includes Christian S. Jensen, a specialist in, among other things, interval-valued temporal
reasoning and interval-valued temporal databases. 

It also included Linda Petzold, a specialist in numerical mathematics, especially on differential and
algebra-differential equations. Many of us may remember her invited talk at the 2002 SIAM Workshop on
Validated Computing 2002 in Toronto, Canada. 

Congratulations to the new Fellows!

[Reliable Computing] FW: Special Session on Imprecise Probabilities at FUSION 2012, Singapore, 9 - 12 July 2012

FYI, please note that interval-valued probabilities are one of the highlighted topics

 

From Alessio Benavoli

 

Dear Colleague,

in the context of the "15th International Conference on Information Fusion"
(Fusion 2012, http://www.fusion2012.org/), we are organizing the following
Special Session:

'Information Fusion with Imprecise Probabilities'

This special session addresses state estimation and information fusion with
imprecise probabilities and other approaches dealing with uncertainty modeling
that go beyond the classical Bayesian approach.

If you are interested in participating in this Special Session, please
send the title of your paper as soon as you can (preferably before 31
January 2012) to

isas-special-session-LzjI1I19FwmELgA04lAiVw@public.gmane.org

* Please see the attachment for further details. *

Instructions for the submission of a paper are available on the Fusion 2012
web site (http://www.fusion2012.org).


IMPORTANT DATES

Papers due: 1 March 2012

[Reliable Computing] missing SCAN

Sergey, dear friends and colleagues
   You all noticed the invitation to the 15th SCAN meeting , and will 
hopefully come.
Just for fun, I tried to remember where the other meetings took place. I 
only found 13 predesessors,
then I counted your list on the webpage SCAN-XX indeed there are 13 entries!
  Why that?
Is there an overestimation in integer arithmethic 13+1=15?
That made me curious.
  The oldest announcement as "n^th Scan meeting was from the year 2000 
in Karlruhe with n=9. Counting from 9 you arrive perfectly at 15 in 
Novosibirsk. Hence the first 7 conferences pretend to be 8.!
  Ithink I found the solution: The SCAN meetings were preceded by some 
smaller meetings in Karlruhe,
that was mentioned in the first announcements, until in Vienna it found 
its way into the list of predesessors. Somebody tossed it out there, but 
forgot to adjust the number or didn't dare to change it.
So do I. My consequence out of this episode will be to organize the 16th 
SCAN 2014 in Würzburg and insert Karlsruhe before  the first.
take it easy
Jürgen
