ICCHP once again wants to imporve the quality of the programme, the proceedings and the presentations. The concept of Special Thematic Session (STS) are provided to support this work towards excellence in AT R&D as sessions tend to become more focused, readable and understandable. An STS presents a detailed and comprehensive view to specific topics.

Therefore we invite once again distinguised experts to organise and chair an STS at ICCHP. STS chair(s)

• define(s) a comprehensive topic
• set(s) up a description on his own web space or at icchp.org
• motivate(s) to get interesting submisisons for the session
• write(s) an introduction (up to 4 pages) as a summary to the topic and the presentations
• plan(s) the programme of the STS and chairs the session(s).

An introduction by the chair as a free publication in the proceedings will recognize these efforts. Special thematic sessions should be proposed not later than January 1, 2010. Please get in contact with:
