Committee Information

The conference organization relies on a senior program committee and the organizing committee.  The Senior Program Committee is responsible for recruiting at least three reviews for each full paper submitted from members.  They are also responsible for working with the Program Committee Co-Chairs to select papers and organize conference content. 

Senior Program Committee members were selected from a broad range of fields, including human factors, robotics, and artificial intelligence, and were invited to participate with the conference.  Program Committee members work with the Senior Program Committee in reviewing papers, recommending papers for acceptance, and organizing the conference.
