Tenth International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Modeling and Using Context
(Context 2017)
19- 23 June 2017
Paris, France
Call For Papers
CONTEXT has for twenty years brought together researchers in a wide range of disciplines to present their work related to issues of context and contextual knowledge and to discuss commonalities across and differences between their disciplines’ approaches to the study of context. It is unique in focusing on context as a subject of study in its own right, and it has become one of the premier venues for context-related research.This year is a milestone: CONTEXT’17 is the tenth conference in and the twentieth anniversary of the series. As such, with this conference we renew our focus on providing a truly interdisciplinary venue for context research. As usual, submissions are solicited from a wide range of disciplines, including artificial intelligence, computer science, context - aware applications, ubiquitous computing, cognitive science and psychology, social and organizational sciences, linguistics, philosophy, and various application areas, such as medicine and law. All accepted papers will need to be written in such a way that non-specialists can understand the work, for example, by providing accessible discussions of the disciplinary prerequisites to allow those outside the discipline to understand the work. However, this year we are explicitly soliciting papers that highlight how such work impacts and is related to other disciplines and that are written with a broad interdisciplinary audience in minde.
Topics
The conference will consist of paper sessions, invited presentations, a poster session, a doctoral consortium, panels, and workshops. Plenary paper sessions will be held for those papers of broad interdisciplinary interest. Other paper sessions will contain those papers of primarily disciplinary interest. A brief paper describing each poster will appear in the conference proceedings, and some of the participants of the doctoral consortium will be invited to also present a poster. Panels will bring together distinguished researchers in various fields to discuss interdisciplinary issues in modeling and using context. Best Paper and other awards, to be highlighted in the proceedings, will be conferred at the closing ceremon
