[ACT-R-users] ACT-R Workshop 2006 Reminder

[Niels Taatgen]

The early registration and abstract submission deadline of July 1st  
is coming up, so here is a reminder of the

ACT-R Workshop 2006

The ACT-R workshop will take place from Friday July 21 to Sunday July  
23. Mornings will be devoted to research presentations, each lasting  
about 20 minutes plus questions. Participants are invited to present  
their ACT-R research by submitting a one-page abstract with their  
registration. Afternoons will feature more research presentations as  
well as discussion sessions and instructional tutorials.  Suggestions  
for the topics of the tutorials and discussion sessions are welcome.   
Friday afternoon will feature a tutorial by the invited speaker,  
David Noelle of Vanderbilt University, about the Leabra neural  
network architecture.

Contrary to the earlier announcement we anticipate to wrap up the  
workshop around noon on Sunday.

Admission to the workshop is open to all.  The early registration fee  
(before July 1) is $100 and the late registration fee (after July 1)  
is $125.  Informal proceedings of past workshops can be found on the  
ACT-R web site (http://act-r.psy.cmu.edu/workshops/). Requests for  
presentations should be submitted before July 1 to receive full  
consideration for inclusion in the workshop program.  A preliminary  
program of presentations will be made available in early July.  The  
workshop is scheduled to just precede the Cognitive Science  
conference which takes place in Vancouver from July 27 to 30. (http:// 
www.cognitivesciencesociety.org/cogsci.html). Housing and computing  
facilities will be provided at CMU from July 23 to 26 for workshop  
participants who wish to stay on to work on their ACT-R projects and  
collaborate with other researchers until the start of Cogsci.

Housing: There are two housing options, one is to stay in the CMU  
dorms ($40.50/night), the other is the Holiday Inn in Oakland (100  
LYTTON AVE) at a rate of $108/night.
