European Workshop on Neuromorphic Systems: final CFP

[Leslie S Smith]

EWNS: 1st European Workshop on Neuromorphic Systems
---------------------------------------------------
Final Call for Papers
---------------------

29-31 August 1997, University of Stirling, Stirling, Scotland

Organisers: 

Centre for Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience
University of Stirling

and 

Department of Electrical Engineering
University of Edinburgh

Neuromorphic systems are implementations in silicon of sensory and neural 
systems whose architecture and design are based on neurobiology. This growing 
area proffers exciting possibilities such as  sensory systems which can  
compete with human senses and pattern recognition systems that can run in 
real-time. The area is at the intersection of many disciplines: 
neurophysiology, computer science and electrical engineering.

Papers are requested in the following areas:

Design issues in sensorineural neuromorphic systems: 
auditory, visual, olfactory, proprioception, sensorimotor systems.

Designs for silicon implementations of neural systems.

Papers not exceeding 8 A4 pages are requested: please send 3 copies.
These should be sent to 

Dr. Leslie Smith
Department of Computing Science
University of Stirling

FAX (44) 1786 464551

We also propose to hold a number of discussion sessions on some of the 
questions above. Short position papers (less than 4 pages) are requested.
