Announcement to Provide Students with the Grant from the AgentLink coordination

The 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM WI-IAT International Conference organization committee is happy to announce that, thanks to a grant provided by the European AgentLink Co-ordination Action for Agent Based Computing, we will be able to support some students who will attend the WI-IAT 2005 International conference.

This grant will be offered to one, two or three selected students who meet the following conditions:

  • the student must be a citizen of one of the new member countries of the European Union (Chypre, Estonie, Hongrie, Lettonie, Lituanie, Malte, Pologne, Republique tcheque, Slovenie, Slovaquie)
  • the student must be registered as a regular research student (PdD student) in a laboratory and/or university of one of the new member countries of the European Union (Chypre, Estonie, Hongrie, Lettonie, Lituanie, Malte, Pologne, Republique tcheque, Slovenie, Slovaquie)
  • the student has a paper accepted as a regular paper in the IAT track of the IEEE/WIC/ACM WI-IAT 2005 International Conference,
  • the student has already paid the registration fee,
  • the student advisor writes a recommendation letter.

Depending on the number of supported students, the grant will range from 250 EUR to 375 EUR.

Please send your submission to Pierre Morizet-Mahoudeaux (pmorizet@hds.utc.fr) before September 3
