Cognitive-oriented Robotic Systems, apart from practical engineering challenges, are also excellent platforms for experimenting with situated and embodied cognitive theories and models, posing interesting challenges in more theoretical and fundamental issues concerning cognition like computational perception (particularly vision), spatial navigation and symbolic and language-like communication. This Robotics and Autonomous Systems special issue on IWINAC 2013: 5th Int. Work-Conference on the Interplay between Natural and Artificial Computation will present several selected and revised papers from the conference as well as additional papers dealing with different issues concerning cognitive-oriented robotic systems.
Method of Review:
Invited contributions should be around 10 journal pages long (approximately 5000 words, plus a reasonable number of Figures/Tables). Submissions will be handled electronically through the EES (Elsevier Editorial System). When uploading a paper, the corresponding author has to choose the so-called Article Type: "IWINAC 2013: Cognitive Robotics" (drop down menu) in the EES system. It is also wise to type in the paper comment field: This submission is part of the special issue "IWINAC 2013: 5th Int. Work-Conference on the Interplay between Natural and Artificial Computation ".The Guest Editors will first evaluate all manuscripts. Those manuscripts that meet the minimum criteria are passed on for peer review by two external experts. The method of review in this special issue will employ single blind review, where the referee remains anonymous throughout the process. The Guest Editors board is responsible for the final decision to accept or to reject the article, based on the recommendations of the reviewers. Accepted papers will have to be sent to the Guest Editors electronically, both as source files (LaTex, MS Word, including all original Figures/Tables and References) and in printable version (PDF).
