Presentation
Interaction among knowledge systems is the new paradigm for
constructing the future society of intelligent agents. People, machines, and
organizations are more and more interacting together by means of modern
Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The social nature of
interaction and communication processes themselves needs to be recognized and
addressed as such, if we want this pervading technology to be effective and
ultimately of benefit for the society.
The Interdisciplinary Laboratory on Interacting Knowledge Systems (ILIKS) is an "European
Joint Laboratory"
(Laboratoire Européen Associé or LEA), an initiative of the French Centre
National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) which will study the theoretical
foundations of interaction under a strongly interdisciplinary approach, by
developing rigorous models grounded on Cognitive Science, Linguistics,
Philosophy, Economy, as well as Logics and Computer Science. Although mainly
theoretical in nature, such an approach will also have a profound impact on
ICT applications, precisely because of its generality; indeed the need of
such generality emerges clearly from the applied projects where the partners
of this proposal are involved.
Scientific
Programme
ILIKS is currently organized in 4 thematic areas:
Cognitive agents, mental attitudes, decisions, actions and plans;
Social relationships, game-theoretical interaction, collective agents and
organizations, services;
Linguistic Interaction;
Lexical and knowledge resources.
