Botía Blaya juanbot@fcu.um.es Subject: IPMU-2000 CFP IPMU2000 -------- The 8th International Conference on Information Processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems July 3 - 7, 2000 Madrid, Spain http://www.mat.upm.es/ipmu e-mail: ipmu@mat.upm.es PRESENTATION ------------ We all are very likely walking towards the Era of the Soft Computing and Computing with Words when uncertainty will be adopted as a natural component of information and knowledge, and when the ancient concept of accuracy, as the essentials of mathematics and calculations, will give way to this new generation of automatic reasoning. From the first edition, the International Conference on Information Process and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge Based Systems (IPMU) has proven to be an ideal forum for the exchange of ideas, methods, procedures and applications among the best researchers and professionals related to fuzzy information processing and techniques, and has become one of the best Conferences of this area in the world. Next edition, the eighth, of IPMU congress (IPMU'2000) will be held in Madrid. As the controversy about the 21st century starting point continues, we are not very sure if Madrid will be hosting the first IPMU congress of 21st century or the 20th's last one, but in any case, this is not a very appropriated discussion in a fuzzy environment.
