2013 IEEE International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Virtual Environments for Measur

To increase the quality of life and better support the economical development, we often appreciate adaptable solutions, simple interfaces, and virtual views for enhanced operation. The wide and increasing needs of adaptable and flexible solutions for many industrial, environmental, engineering, educational, entertainment, and biomedical applications point out the importance of using design methodologies and implementation technologies with high ability of adaptation and evolution. Computational intelligence is one of the most relevant answers to such needs. Virtual environments and human-computer interfaces are essential to effectively understand the operating environment and support interactive applications. On the other hand, accuracy and uncertainty issues as well as suited data acquisition systems must be carefully considered in these applications since the quality of the solution greatly relies on them. Up to now, analysis has been performed mainly to understand the underlying technologies and methodologies, but without any specific focus on the mandatory need of a quantitative assessment and a metrological analysis. Measurement science and technologies are vital to ensure the correct and effective use of computational intelligence and virtual technologies in real environments. IEEE CIVEMSA inherits and merge the decennial success of IEEE CIMSA and IEEE VECIMS: this new conference series will continue the exciting interdisciplinary experience of the previous editions by filling this gap in knowledge and practice.
