AISB-50: a convention commemorating both 50 years since the founding of the Society for the study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (the AISB) and sixty years since the death of Alan Turing, founding father of both Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, was held at Goldsmiths, University of London, UK from the 1st to the 4th April 2014. The convention followed the same overall structure as previous conventions, namely a set of co-located symposia and we are currently seeking proposals for these symposia. Typical symposia lasted for one or two days, and could include any type of event of academic benefit: talks, posters, panels, discussions, demonstrations, outreach sessions, etc.
1st - 4th April 2014, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
