Dear colleagues,
we would like to inform you on the International Summer School on Human Technology Cooperation "smart@work", which will be held in Dresden, Germany, from September 28 to October 5, 2016. The event mainly targets PhD students, researchers and skilled practitioners.
The Summer School is going to explore one of the main research challenges in the field of human technology cooperation in complex, dynamic Cyber-Physical Systems: How do highly automated and dynamic systems need to be designed in order to enable people and technology to cooperate as partners on equal footing, and to benefit from their respective strengths?
For eight days, PhD students and Postdocs from around the world will discuss and elaborate a vision of being smart@work. Leading international scientists will share their experience at the highest international level. A broad mix of lectures, keynote speeches, workshops, hands-on sessions and excursions will stimulate the academic exchange and foster focused, results-oriented, and high quality scientific work. The workshop will be accompanied by leisure activities in the beautiful city of Dresden, the cosmopolitan metropolis of art and science.
We are happy to welcome two multiple internationally recognized experts as keynote speakers:
Prof. Stephen Brewster (Multimodal Interaction Group, University of Glasgow)
Axel Platz (Corporate Technology – User Interface Design, Siemens AG)
We would like to invite everyone who is interested to visit our website <smartatwork.org>. To apply or for further information send an email to <smartatwork@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. The registration is open until July 4, 2016.
Best Regards,
Ercan
