Call for Papers of International Sessions in RSJ2014,

The 32nd Annual Conference of the Robotics Society of Japan

http://rsj2014.rsj-web.org/international.html

Date: Sep. 4 (Thu.) - 6 (Sat.), 2014

Venue: Kyushu Sangyo University

(3-1 Matsukadai 2-chome, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka 813-8503, Japan)

Deadline for paper submission: July 4 (Fri), 2014

* Background and Purpose of the International Sessions *

The 32nd annual conference of the Robotics Society of Japan (RSJ) will

be held at Kyushu Sangyo University. The conference includes more than

seven hundred academic or technical presentations from various areas

of robotics and has many participants from industries, research institutions,

and universities. This RSJ annual conference accepts English presentation

in any general or organized sessions as well as Japanese presentation.

However, majority of the conference participants are Japanese and

presentations and discussions are mostly in Japanese. In order to make

it easier for researchers whose native language is not Japanese to

attend the conference and present their work, the RSJ has been organizing

several international sessions in this annual conference. The official

language of the international sessions is English and all participants

of these international sessions including presenters, chairpersons, and

audiences are required to use English. Conference registration fee is

charged to the participants in the international sessions this year

(the amount depends on your status, such as RSJ member, non-member, or

student). In contrast to other regular/organized sessions, RSJ membership

is not required for presenters in the international sessions. Moreover,

short papers of a minimum of one page are welcome. Other than the relaxed

requirements for the membership and the paper length, the international

sessions will be treated in the same way as other regular/organized

sessions, namely, your paper will be included in the conference DVD and

the conference digest.

* Paper Submission *

Authors are requested to follow the normal submission procedure and upload

their papers electronically in PDF format through the conference website.

The detailed procedure for submitting a paper is shown below. If you

are not a member of RSJ, please contact Session Organizer to obtain

temporary RSJ ID before paper submission. The fee for one paper submission

is included in the conference registration fee. For more submissions,

extra submission fee (JPY5000/paper) is required.
