===============================
Dear colleagues,

You are cordially invited to propose a Special Session, as a part of the programme of the 11th International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (IWANN2011), which will be held on June 8-10, 2011 in Torremolinos-Málaga (Spain).

Special Sessions that emphasize on multi-disciplinary and transversal aspects, as well as cutting-edge topics are especially encouraged and welcome.

Proposals are due before November 18th, 2010 and should be sent by e-mail, without specific format to the Special Sessions chairs:
cabestany@aha-dee.upc.edu
moreno@aha-dee.upc.edu

Please, find detailed information on our web:
