New Polish AI Society

ECCAI welcomes the newly established Polish Artificial Intelligence Society (PAIS) in its family.

New composition of the ECCAI Board

Jérome Lang, Ann Nowé and Michael Wooldridge were elected as new members of the ECCAI Board by the General Assembly. Gerhard Brewka will continue as ECCAI President, and Grigoris Antoniou and Patrick Doherty as members.

In the name of ECCAI, the ECCAI Board wishes to thank the outgoing members Hendrik Blockeel, Marie-Odile Cordier and Paolo Traverso for their valuable contribution in the past years.

Call for ECCAI Fellows nominations

Nominations are sought for ECCAI Fellows 2011. The ECCAI Fellows program was initiated in 1999 to recognize individuals who have made significant, sustained contributions to the field of artificial intelligence (AI) in Europe. The ECCAI Fellows Program honors only a very small percentage of the total membership of all ECCAI member societies (up to a maximum of 3%).

An ECCAI society, or a group of at least two ECCAI Fellows from different countries can nominate. More details are found at the ECCAI web site. Deadline for nominations is February 11, 2011.
