<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In January 2016, the IEEE Transactions on Autonomous Mental Development (TAMD) is renamed to the IEEE Transactions on Cognitive and Developmental Systems (TCDS). TCDS will focus on advances in the study of development
and cognition in natural (humans, animals) and artificial (robots, agents) systems. It welcomes contributions from multiple disciplines related to cognition and development, including cognitive systems, cognitive robotics, developmental and epigenetic robotics,
autonomous and evolutionary robotics, social robotics, multi-agent and artificial life systems, computational neuroscience, models of neural and morphological development, brain-like computing, brain-computer interface, and developmental psychology. Articles
on theoretical, computational, application-oriented, and experimental studies as well as reviews in these areas are considered. Papers on interdisciplinary approaches to cognition and development in robots, agents and humans also are strongly encouraged.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">TCDS is financially co-sponsored by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, and the IEEE Consumer Electronics Society. TCDS is also technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Computer
Society.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
